What Grossman Solutions does

Grossman Solutions is a private public affairs and political consulting firm founded in 2007 by Andrew Grossman and headquartered in Hartford, Connecticut, with a second office in Washington, DC. The firm serves progressive advocacy organizations, labor unions, non-profits, political campaigns, and government agencies, offering a portfolio of services organized around three core practices: advocacy campaigns, executive search, and political campaign management, supplemented by strategic planning, coalition building, Latino outreach, and individual career coaching.

The firm's underlying capability is a data-driven campaign and mobilization methodology rather than a packaged software product. Case-study evidence shows deployment of a proprietary canvassing and outreach platform — described as award-winning — supporting door-to-door operations, phone outreach, SMS/text campaigns, and social media deployment, with documented outcomes including 267,625 doors knocked and a 17.8% lift in vaccination rates in canvassed census blocks during the Get Vaccinated CT initiative with the Connecticut Department of Public Health. No public APIs, SDKs, or AI/ML capabilities are disclosed.

Revenue is generated through three streams: project-based political and advocacy consulting (paid by advocacy groups, labor unions, and campaigns), executive search and senior leadership placement for organizations including America Votes, NARAL Pro-Choice America, and the National Audubon Society, and individual career coaching billed at $250 per 90-minute session. The firm is privately held, founder-controlled, with no disclosed institutional investors or funding rounds. Operations run on a 1-10 person senior team delivered through direct client engagement, supplemented by podcast appearances and content marketing.
