FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about working with Breakthrough Blue.

What types of clients do you work with?

We work with three primary client types:

  • Political Campaigns — Candidates for local, state, and federal office seeking strategic communications and voter outreach
  • Community Organizations — Nonprofits, advocacy groups, and coalitions building support for causes and initiatives
  • Land Use & Policy — Developers, project sponsors, and stakeholders navigating public approval processes

Our services are tailored to each client type's unique needs and decision-making environments.

How quickly can you start on a project?

We can typically begin within 1-2 weeks of engagement, though urgent projects may start sooner. For time-sensitive campaigns or public approval deadlines, we offer rapid deployment options to get critical communications running fast.

Initial strategy sessions and planning can begin immediately after our first conversation.

What geographic areas do you serve?

We serve clients nationwide, with deep experience in California and across the Western United States. Our digital-first approach means geography rarely limits what we can accomplish together.

For projects requiring on-the-ground presence, we coordinate local execution through trusted partners.

Do you handle both strategy and execution?

Yes. We believe strategy without execution is just a document, and execution without strategy is just activity. We provide end-to-end services from initial planning through final delivery—including creative production, media buying, and program management.

What makes Breakthrough Blue different?

Three things set us apart:

  • Strategy-First Approach — We design the strategy before the assets. Every piece of creative serves a persuasion goal.
  • Full-Stack Capability — From data targeting to creative production to media buying, we handle it all in-house.
  • Outcome Focus — We measure success by real-world results: votes won, projects approved, coalitions built—not vanity metrics.
How do you measure success?

We define success by outcomes that matter to you: election results, project approvals, coalition growth, and measurable shifts in public opinion. Every campaign includes clear metrics and regular reporting so you always know where you stand.

What is your pricing structure?

Our pricing varies based on scope, timeline, and services required. We offer flexible engagement models including:

  • Project-based fees for defined deliverables
  • Monthly retainers for ongoing support
  • Media buying with transparent pass-through costs

We provide detailed proposals after understanding your specific needs. Contact us to discuss your project.

Can you work with existing vendors or in-house teams?

Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with existing consultants, agencies, and in-house staff. Whether you need us to lead, support, or fill specific gaps, we adapt to your situation and work as an integrated extension of your team.
