POLITICAL CONSULTANT

Wisconsin Political Consultant

IF IT DIDN'T HAPPEN ON SOCIAL MEDIA,
​IT DIDN'T REALLY HAPPEN​
Wisconsin Political consultant Josh Klemons, serving Madison, WI and beyond
​
​"If it didn't happen on social media, it didn't really happen."
 Whether as a Digital agency, social media strategist, ads manager or political consultant, that's been the mantra of every political campaign with which we've been involved.


It's not enough to knock doors, make calls, send lit and host events. You need to connect with your voters, day in and day out, throughout the life of your campaign.

Are your emails telling your campaign's story, or are they just asking for money? Are your Facebook posts and digital ads getting seen? Are they getting seen by the right audience? Does your campaign have drive, passion and purpose online? Is it building momentum towards election day?

We can help you and your political organization or campaign answer these questions, and so many more you haven't yet thought to ask. 

Let's get your volunteers, voters and constituents involved in telling your campaign's story.
Let's grow your reach, engagement and contributions. 
Let's find, hone and tell your story online, everyday.
Let's expand and engage your base. ​

Let's win this thing!

What people have said about working with us as a political consultant, agency or digital strategist

Clay Pell, Rhode Island, Governor Digital Director
"Josh served as Digital Director on my campaign for Governor of Rhode Island. Josh was an MVP throughout the campaign — extremely responsive, adaptable, visionary, and helpful. In a high-stress environment, he worked well with everyone and always met tight timelines. He was also extremely professional in working with the public, and he is an asset to any organization or movement seeking a highly competent, reliable, and driven digital leader. "​

-Clay Pell, Former Democratic Rhode Island Candidate for Governor; Lieutenant and Judge Advocate, US Coast Guard; Director for Strategic Planning, National Security Staff; White House Fellow; and Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Office of International and Foreign Language Education, US Department of Education


Renee Moe, United Way of Dane County
"Josh Klemons is a social media maven who wants to help others improve. I have benefited from Josh’s expertise firsthand, and as a result feel more confident using social media to empower more good in the community. Josh is an effective and patient teacher, responsive, thoughtful and practical."

​-Renee Moe, President & CEO, United Way of Dane County


Samba Baldeh, Wisconsin Assembly Candidate Digital Political Consultant
"Reverbal Communications came to the rescue when COVID-19 hit and made our campaign plan (developed in Jan. 2020) irrelevant. How would I reach 10,000 voters if I and my team could not go door-to-door? How would they know me and not simply get stuck by my African name?


​Josh Klemons and the Reverbal team put together a plan that I could afford and that was able to be tested each week for its effectiveness and value. This included a revamp of our campaign website.

Though initially skeptical of his encouragement of our investment in such a sweeping digital program, our weekly data reports indicated that we were getting many multiples of the contacts received by my three primary opponents combined. Also, each of our fundraising appeals more than paid for the cost of our ad program. And our website attracted many compliments.

The end of the story is that we won and that Reverbal Communications’ hard work and skill was integral to that achievement."
​

-Samba Baldeh, Wisconsin State Assembly 


Women elected officials, digital consultant
"Josh's social media expertise helped tremendously throughout my campaign seeking election to municipal government. This successful campaign was my first introduction to elections and organizing a campaign, and at a local municipal level, much of the organizing falls on the shoulders of the candidate. As such, having the ability to access folks like Josh, who are able to provide clear guidance, support and troubleshooting was invaluable.

Although working for municipal campaigns in a Canadian context was new for Josh, he went above and beyond to back my campaign. Josh has expertise working on political campaigns for women, which was a great asset. He helped me build advertising campaigns that were concise and targeted. His guidance around messaging has continued to help me throughout my social media channels as a City Councillor. All of the consultation I received was through Skype, which worked very well. Josh was able to walk me through any questions I had as we could display our screens. In addition, Josh was efficient in his coaching and was able to provide a lot of information in a short period of time. I felt that my time was valued and the information I received was thoughtful and never rushed. I highly recommend Josh [and his team] to help elevate your campaign. Josh worked specifically with me on Facebook, Twitter and NationBuilder. Regardless of the platform being used, I am confident that Josh would be a great fit to back your campaign team."


-Sarina Gersher, City Councillor


Eurasia Group Foundation Digital Marketing Strategy
"I have had the pleasure of working with Josh for over two years and he's become my go-to person for social media and email marketing issues. He has handled everything for us from drafting, refining, and building emails--for a variety of staff members-to designing, implementing and tracking our social media campaigns (both paid and unpaid).

​He has kept us up to date on trends, assured we were spending our limited resources in the most strategic ways possible, and pushed us to think creatively about how to engage with our stakeholders. He's smart, honest, and a lot of fun to work with. I can't recommend him enough."

-Allyn Summa, Executive Director, Eurasia Group Foundation


Makeshift Festival, Madison, WI
"Reverbal Communications is an integral component of Makeshift Festival's success. He designed and implemented a social media strategy that helped us get remarkable recognition and engagement that was the key to the impact that we were able to have in our first year. Josh is a clear communicator who intuitively understood our message and was a pleasure to work with; I'd recommend him to anyone.  

Whether you're a startup or an established brand, Reverbal Communications will help you tell your story effectively and efficiently."

-Bob Hemauer, Director, Makeshift Festival


Wyoming Investor Network
"I just completed an independent expenditure project with Josh and he was great! This social media effort had an extremely short timeline, launching just a week before an election. Josh got us set up, did compelling creative and got the ads in front of our targeted audiences. I had a lot of balls in the air and Josh was great about pressing forward without a lot of instruction from me. He knew what needed to be done, pressed forward and kept me in the loop. I will 
​                              definitely use Josh's services again if we have a similar project."

-Bruce Palmer, Executive Director, Wyoming Investor Network
