About Navigate

Navigate Campaigns is a boutique Democratic political consulting firm with a hands-on approach to helping our clients succeed. Whether you’re an electoral campaign or advocacy organization, we provide an unmatched level of service as integral members of your team.

We partner with award-winning designers to complement our authentic, persuasive messages that target the voters you need to win. Our creative process begins the moment we are hired by your team. By being closely engaged from the outset, we are able to craft messages that go beyond just a copy-and-paste job from a poll. With us, you get original photography, original art, and real, values-based messages that move voters.

Our Philosophy

Our advertising is individualized to meet the needs and demographics of your audience. No canned art or messages—our work is as individual and unique as you are.

Every firm says their creative designs and messaging stand out. The truth is, there isn’t much difference between most firms’ mail or digital advertising. Mail is especially templated by some of our competitors. You’ve probably seen dozens of samples that have a candidate looking at the camera with their arms crossed, a message copied from a poll, and the same three bullet points on the back of each piece of mail. If you’re lucky, the mail shown to you by another firm wasn’t used in another race.

If you want a firm that cuts corners and sells you the exact same work they’ve done for another candidate—then we aren’t for you.
