Story is key.
We prioritize narrative, design, brand, and all things creative to help inspire lasting connection and change with your supporters.
We build to last.
Our focus is not limited to low-hanging fruit, short term results, or burn and churn tactics—we create programs that are a value-add for the long-term. It takes time and attention, but it’s worth it.
We’re values-driven.
Activated, empowered communities are how we make our politics more effective and inviting. Our clients understand the extra intention a values-driven approach requires in this high-stakes space.
We build programs that meet the moment through a collaborative, inviting, and people-centered approach.
The Triptych team has decades of experience in politics, media and entertainment. We take a holistic, values-driven approach to digital strategy, incorporating established methods and cutting edge tactics to build strong, enduring communities around candidates, organizations and causes.
How We Work
We view digital as organizing.
We turn data into holistic strategy to meet your supporters where they are with digital tools like email, SMS, social media, ads and video. Our programs are modernized engagement ladders that continuously guide supporters from one rung to the next using data analytics and message testing to deepen commitment. In other words, we don’t do cookie-cutter strategy or tactics that leave supporters feeling like an ATM.
We have a toolkit of ethical, engaging tactics.
We create feedback loops, offer organizing opportunities, and prioritize design, brand, story, community-building and user experience – all while hitting the financial and engagement targets needed for maximum ROI. We fill the gap other firms overlook by understanding that this approach takes time and intention, and this level of detail and planning is worth every second.
We de-silo.
Digital is not a department, it is a tool for every department – comms, media, political, policy, fundraising, and organizing. We facilitate pipelines and info gathering that ensures digital is integrated across departments. And in turn, you are left with a base that is fully engaged and activated.
We lead with our values.
We’re thinking about the humans in front of the screens just as much as the bottom line. Our approach prioritizes respect for the end-user (your supporters!) in every single connection. We don’t do tricks, we don’t do fake, we don’t do sky-is-falling manipulation. Instead, we encourage and guide our clients to identify and ground their programs in core values as they build for the long term. Real connections, real principle, real policy, real actions.
Our Values
Community
We know our politics is stronger, more equitable and more effective when people feel a sense of belonging and power in the system, and see it as our job to make sure our clients are honoring that online and off. We build people-centered digital programs that are accessible, engaging and inviting to develop a sense of community around your work – lasting beyond one cycle to create real value, belonging and change.
Integrity
Integrity in the digital political space is broken. The system was built to make a quick buck at the expense of the end user, and it’s become riddled with conflicts of interest and bad practice. It’s difficult to operate in this space successfully while avoiding the questionable tactics that have become the norm, but that’s what we’re doing at Triptych. That begins and ends with staying grounded in our personal values of honesty, accountability, candor, and ultimately putting people — the public, clients, our staff — first.Â
Magic
We know, we know — magic? Hear us out. Political communication is always a challenge, the digital space in particular has become a deluge of the same empty messaging from every direction. Folks are looking for a sense of connection, inspiration and — dare we say it — hope. At Triptych we pay extra attention to things like narrative and story, brand and design to enhance the experience, joy and sense of recognition people feel in our clients’ work. That’s where the magic happens.
We build power for our clients and the people they represent.
See what our clients say about us:
In the sequestered world of political campaigns, “trying something different” can be a forbidden phrase.
Seasoned consultants and political operatives can usually be found offering the same cookie cutter products and solutions, election after election. That’s what makes Triptych Strategies unique — trying something different is in their DNA. They bought into our voice, our vision, and our culture, and then used their deep well of experience and industry know-how to produce results that not only exceeded our expectations but were also uniquely engaging and stood out in an extremely crowded political cycle. I consider Triptych Strategies thought partners and would readily call on them in any effort I participate in moving forward.

GROUNDWORK PROJECT
In an era where our industry sees so many firms that miss the mark on storytelling, Triptych continues to put in the time and care to get it right, and it shows in their work again and again.
The level of access and responsiveness I get with their senior team is unmatched, it has been my pleasure to work with them for two election cycles and I look forward to more in the future.
