Are you looking to amplify your public policy messaging?

If yes, let's press on.

Brigadoon is seeking branded content partners for a three-part 2022 SOTU audio+video broadcast.

Part one: Curtain Raiser: Interviews with those who have written the address and secured the event - think behind-the-scenes history.

Part Two: Live Commentary: Policy and political pros provide their spin, analysis, and commentary on the address live - think Manning Cast but for professional politics.

Part Three: Recap + Response: Highlights and clips from the address, GOP response, and top talking points from policy and political pros - think Meet the Press but smartphone friendly.

Interested?

Branded content partnerships start @ $7,500.

Part One commitment is required by Tuesday, February 15.

This will be fun.

Plus, good guy to know Brendan Kownacki is handling production.
