According to a release, Lobbyit.com will roll out its new Tier 4 service option to give nonprofits, associations, municipalities and businesses a nimble alternative to the larger and less efficient lobbying firms on the market. The Tier 4 solution combines the expertise of one of the top DC lobbying firms with the technology of Salsa's online advocacy platform. The resulting offering will allow Lobbyit's clients to make an impact on the issues they care about most. Tier 4 service options will contain a grassroots component, 50 state legislative tracking, an advocacy web hub to design and send online letters to elected officials - through email or directly into their website forms and more.
