OUR APPROACH

How We Win Campaigns

HSG Campaigns' skilled team of experts know how to help our clients win. Our all-in-one approach combines traditional and modern campaign tactics, with the ability to handle all aspects of a campaign. We craft unique strategies designed specifically for your election.

Our philosophy toward campaigns has three simple rules:
1. No unforced errors
2. A clear plan
3. Make adjustments as needed.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"HSG Campaigns executed a strategy-driven direct mail program that helped us grow our Democratic presence in the Indiana State Senate. The negative pieces they produced created chaos for our Republican opponents. You can trust them to work closely with you to achieve your goals."

—  Zach Brown, Executive Director, Indiana Senate Democrats
"Eric and his team have helped us win several tough campaigns. The direct mail and campaign literature they produced was visually striking and effectively conveyed the messages and values we wanted to express to the voters. I highly recommend HSG Campaigns for organizations that want to have an impact in the next election."

—  Rusty Hicks, Chair of the California Democratic Party
"There’s a sense of urgency working with HSG, they understand the pace of modern campaigns. The work you’ll get from them will be top-notch, every time. Through the process there is a lot of consideration and effort in making the client comfortable with how things are going and being receptive to any concerns. I strongly recommend them for your campaign or campaign project."

—   Chris Callopy, Executive Director, Teachers Association of Long Beach
"HSG Campaigns is a great resource for campaigns and organizations to use in a grind. They are able to do a wide scope of work and give you the tools you need to make the right decisions.

When it comes to direct mail, digital ads, or scripts, HSG is among the best in creative, on-target content. I know from working with them that I can trust them to work through nearly any time constraint and limitation. I highly recommend them for your next campaign or project."     

—  Jeff Gozzo, California Senate Democrats
"Over the years I have worked with HSG and seen their work on heated campaigns. Time and again, I am impressed with their ability to deliver strategic messaging with high-impact visuals. Eric Hogensen is keenly aware of how to use his political mind to communicate with voters in a way that works."     

—   Chris Larson, Wisconsin State Senator, District 7
"I have worked with HSG Campaigns several times in the past and I am always impressed with their insights into the hearts and minds of the voters they communicate with. They are able to take those insights and combine them with new and traditional tactics to craft great strategies for their clients. Candidates and organizations should strongly consider them in 2018."   

—    Joe Boyd, Former Executive Director, California Federation of Teachers
"We hired HSG Campaigns as subcontractors on a big project.

I look forward to the next time I will get to work with them."

—    Doug Otto, President, California Community College Board Of Trustees

— Rex Richardson, Long Beach Vice Mayor, District 9
"Eric and his team are skilled in political strategy and organization and, more importantly, go above and beyond the expectations of their clients.

We are excited to work with HSG Campaigns again, and are proud to recommend them to other organizations like ours."
 
— Doug Patzkowski, President and Kathy Schlotz, Executive Director, Montebello Teachers Association
"When we wanted to get the word out about two important ballot measures, we went to HSG Campaigns. They worked with us to develop a great plan that included digital advertising and texting, allowing us to reach tens of thousands of voters in a short amount of time. They were very responsive and proactive. Both measures successfully passed. I highly recommend HSG Campaigns for your next ballot measure campaign.
— Alyssa Gutierrez, Executive Director, Economic & Policy Impact Center

— Keri Kropke, Board Member, Brea Olinda Unified School District
