it differently. You have less than
four years to paint a picture of
the city, you would like to have,

paints and brushes in their
hands. Is it you or your
opponents, who will paint the
picture instead of you and what
if they don't use the correct
colors? We offer you services
that will assure, it will be you
who will paint the picture and
tell your story. And it will be a
story of a good mayor of a
successful city.

those who don't wish for changes in the
city. The attacks will probably get into
personal level. Together with our expert on
social networks, we will prepare ways how
to protect and guard your reputation and
reputation of the city in a public. We will
come up with a battery of tools for
transparent communication of your
decisions and teach members of your

COMMUNICATION OF A
MAYOR OR A CITY
In case it won't be possible to
prevent an attack before it actually
happens, together with you, we will
prepare an action plan how to
communicate an unpleasant news
or crisis solutions together with
defining the communicators and its
timing. If you are interested, we will
create a process map of crisis
communication for your team and
standardized answers to all
frequently asked questions that
could potentially provoke a conflict
and misunderstanding.
TELEPHONE CONTACT WITH CITIZEN
(TOWNHALL THROUGH A PHONE)
Keeping the communication as personal as
possible is a condition of a successful
permanent campaign. Citizens want to see and
hear their mayor. Media can distort and leave
out your messages. Therefore, a direct
communication in regular intervals is so
important. The most efficient tool is a mass
phone conference with citizens, during which
they could ask their questions and answer the
poll questions from your side. It would be ideal
to have live phone conferences, with different
city districts.
