Your Success INSIDE the
Capitol Depends on Your
Power OUTSIDE the Capitol
An organized, energized base can do what most lobbyists alone can’t: make lawmakers sweat in their sensible shoes.
Advocacy isn’t seasonal. Your engagement strategy shouldn’t be either.
Struggling to Rally Your Members, Donors, and Volunteers in Advocacy?
Do you feel like you’re doing everything you can—but your advocacy efforts still aren’t gaining the traction they deserve? Are you looking for ways to amplify your organization’s power and push your legislative priorities across the finish line?

BETHANY SNYDER
Strategist. Enthusiast.
Optimist.
I’m Bethany Snyder, MPP, and I founded Snyder Strategies to help nonprofits and membership-based organizations step up their advocacy game. After nearly 25 years in the trenches—whether as a grassroots advocacy director, lobbyist, consultant, comms director, or even a U.S. Senate staffer—I’ve sat on all sides of the advocacy desk. I know how this world works, and I know how to make it work for you.
I’m passionate about making sure nonprofit and social justice organizations use their voices, their power, and their lived expertise to shape the policies that matter most—especially for the communities who are too often left out or left behind.
And let’s be clear: I don’t do fluff. I’m a straight shooter who tells it like it is, helps you cut through the noise, and gives you real strategy that gets real results. No BS. Just bold, authentic advocacy.
You know your members should be a driving force in your advocacy. The missing piece? A smart, strategic plan to activate them.
Let’s fix that.
