ONE-ON-ONE · ALWAYS OFF THE RECORD
ADVISORY
One-on-one advising for corporate and association PAC leaders.
A standing conversation with a peer who built a top 50 corporate PAC,
so you never have to lead yours alone.
Every conversation is confidential,
candid and focused on your PAC,
so you can lead a program thatraises more money, engages more eligibles and earns the support of your executives.
WORKING TOGETHER
I know what it is to be a team of one: fundraiser, compliance officer, event planner, scheduler and occasional referee, all while answering to your VP, your lobbyists, your board and your donors. And at the end of the cycle—measured only by a single number.
Twice a month, you’ll have dedicated time to bring whatever is on your desk: the decision you’re weighing, the board conversation ahead or the idea you want to test. You keep leading your PAC. You just stop leading it alone.
You don’t need to hire a consultant or outsource your entire program. You just need a trusted peer in your corner who has done the job.
You’ll have a confidant who truly understands what your role demands and how to deliver—always off the record.

YOUR ADVISOR
Joanna has spent more than 15 years leading successful corporate and association PACs that deliver exceptional results for the organizations they serve. From a global healthcare company to the nation’s doctors and America’s cattle ranchers, she has turned PACs into strategic assets that elevate each organization’s standing in Washington and has advised Fortune 500 companies and leading trade associations along the way.
At Abbott, she led the company’s PAC, growing it from $400k to $2MM+ per cycle and into one of the top 50 corporate PACs in the country, outpacing even larger companies. Her results twice earned her the Abbott President’s Award.
Her approach is simple: the most successful fundraising is built on trust, peer to peer. It’s the philosophy she has shared as a featured speaker for the Public Affairs Council and the foundation of every conversation.
Today, she helps PAC leaders lead with clarity and confidence, so their programs have the strength to be heard and the standing to get things done.
