Advocacy isn’t just for business owners—it’s for anyone who cares about their community.
Whether you’re speaking to your local representative or someone in Congress, here’s how you can make your voice heard:
- Be Personal – Share your story. Facts and figures are important, but what really sticks with lawmakers are the personal stories of people in their communities.
- Be Clear – Know what you want to say. Stick to two or three key points. The simpler and more direct your message, the more effective it’ll be.
- Be Persistent – Don’t expect change overnight. Follow up, build relationships, and be patient—these things take time, but persistence pays off.
