Where do we stand? What should we say?

  • Know where you stand—in days, not weeks.

    What you get:

    • Vote intention and head-to-head ballot

    • Name ID and favorability for you and your opponents

    • Issue ownership and candidate perceptions

    • Segmentation by partisanship, ideology, and demographics

    • A clear "state of the race" memo you can act on immediately

    [→ Example: NC04 Cross Tabs and Toplines] [→ Get in Touch]

  • Know what to say—and why it works.

    Focused message testing using MaxDiff and choice-based exercises to identify what actually persuades. We test candidate-specific messages, standard benchmark frames, and optional contrast/negative frames against real persuadable voters—then hand you the documents to make it happen. You're not buying a crosstab dump. You're buying a clear answer to "what should we actually say tomorrow?"

    What you get:

    • Ranked message frames showing what actually moves people

    • Candidate-specific positives, benchmark frames, and optional contrast/negative messages

    • A message bible and campaign playbook

    • Ad-ready copy: 30-second scripts, digital, and social content scripts

    Best for: Before major ad buys · Developing a campaign narrative · Deciding between competing message frames.

Content

How do we make ads faster? More authentic? More engaging?

  • Fast turnaround. Tactical execution.

    Fixed-batch ad production for campaigns that need to move now. Bring your own content and direction, or draw on Tavern's research library and proven message frames. No placement required—take the files and run.

    What you get:

    • Fixed-batch ad production — you choose the volume

    • Rapid turnaround for time-sensitive moments

    • Ads built from your footage, our library, or both

    Best for: Rapid response to opponent attacks · Event-specific content (debate clips, endorsement drops) · Campaigns that need a nimble production partner without the bottleneck

    [→ See Example Ads] [→ Get in Touch]

  • Authentic content, produced at scale.

    Your candidate and your volunteers are creating the most persuasive content every day—in the car, at the door, at the town hall. It's sitting in a Google Drive folder. Tavern processes raw footage from field organizers, volunteers, and direct-to-camera candidate footage into a continuous stream of ads that don't look or feel like ads. Automated. High-volume. FEC-compliant.

    What you get:

    • Up to 250 ads/month from your raw footage

    • Lightning fast processing of high-volume grassroots and candidate content

    • Compelling, authentic spots that cut through ad noise

    Best for: Candidates who are compelling in person but stiff on script · Field organizing programs with high-volume grassroots footage · Digital-first strategies · Advocacy organizations with canvassing operations
