Government strategy is so much more than federal policy and funding applications. One of the most important steps to success is simply showing up.
Our team had the honor of supporting Governor Kelly Ayotte as she toured New Hampshire this summer, visiting carnivals, concerts, and local businesses across the state. Watching a governor connect directly with the people and communities she serves (from the back of a farm truck at a rodeo to Main Street storefronts) is a reminder of what economic development looks like at its most human.
Tourism and small business are the economic backbone of states like New Hampshire. Shepherd Strategies is proud to support that work at the state level and beyond, building relationships, supporting local economies, and helping communities and the leaders who serve them move forward.
