Capitol Management Group helps to assist our clients work effectively and efficiently. We focus on the administration of organizations and government relations.

Professional societies, trade associations and other non-profit, philanthropic organizations are generally driven by a core of committed volunteers. Unfortunately, most members have occupations which limit the time they can spend on association duties. And, of course, even a single staff person can be overwhelmed by the breadth of activities required to run a successful organization.

Capitol Management Group can provide all the routine services (e.g., telephone reception, mail routing, headquarters and meeting space, mailing services, printing, supplies, etc.) required to operate your organization (small or large) in a cost effective manner. More importantly, we enable volunteers to devote their time to core issues instead of administrative distractions. Whether the need is as simple as planning an annual event or staffing a board of directors meeting, or as advanced as creating a five-year plan and/or initiating new revenue-generating ideas, we have the experience to help our clients achieve their goals and, thus, ensure the organization’s future.

ADMINISTRATION

Many associations come to professional management companies to provide the daily management of the organization. Capitol Management Group’s team can provide all the routine services (e.g., telephone reception, mail routing, association headquarters and meeting space, mailing services, printing, supplies, etc.) required to operate your organization in a cost-effective manner. More importantly, we enable volunteers to devote their time to core issues instead of administrative distractions.

MEETINGS

Meetings are key to the existence of many organizations, as they afford members an intense view of the association’s activities. Whether arrangements involve a single Board of Directors meeting or a multi-day joint conference with other organizations, Capitol Management Group will expedite the entire process. From negotiating hotel contracts, to designing marketing materials, to coordinating the presenter’s A/V needs, we have “been there, done that.”

GOVERNANCE

Do the same volunteers perform all the work in your organization? Do you have trouble filling Board positions when a member resigns? Are your Board meetings unfocused? Do you let issues which are urgent, but not particularly important, dominate your meetings?
If the answer to any of these questions is “yes,” you will benefit from our association professionals’ support. Establishing an effective committee structure with opportunities to develop new leaders is essential to a strong, vibrant association. Long-range strategic planning with stakeholders will help a Board remain focused on important goals, not just attend to today’s crisis.
