What experience does SCL Elections have?

SCL Elections has worked in a varying capacity on more than 35 election campaigns worldwide. We have managed 23 election campaigns in their entirety, including second and third term elections for a number of clients.

What makes SCL Elections' services stand out?

SCL Elections' campaign management services are unique. Unlike our competitors, our services are underpinned by powerful scientific methodologies developed by the Behavioural Dynamics Institute, a leading international centre of excellence for multidisciplinary research and development into Target Audience Analysis, social influence and strategic communication. Using advanced behavioural protocols, we have the power to diagnose patterns of behaviour and effect measurable behavioural change within electorates. Put simply, we have the proven ability to persuade people to vote for our clients. To date, we have a 100% track record in election management. We have never lost an election that we have managed in its entirety.

How can SCL Elections help me win my election?

Our scientific approach, based on Target Audience Analysis, allows us to provide detailed profiling of a given electorate, including the identification of key ‘drivers’ and ‘switches’, which influence attitudes and command behaviours. Using such knowledge, we can then develop effective strategic campaign plans and implement election campaigns designed to ‘press’ these buttons, thereby ensuring electoral success.

How can I be sure that SCL Elections will understand my country and my electorate?

Whilst we would never presume to understand our clients’ countries and electoral situations better than they do themselves, we nevertheless offer unique scientific methodologies that can be applied to any electoral scenario and that have a proven track record of winning elections. We work in close partnership with our clients to utilise local knowledge and capabilities at all levels to supplement our election expertise and technical know-how.

Can I pick and choose different services?

Our services are client oriented. We offer a fully comprehensive package of Election Services, ranging from advanced electoral polling, audience research and behavioural analysis, through to a fully comprehensive election campaign formulation and management solution, but we always tailor our services to suit our clients' individual needs, however small or large they may be.

When should I contact SCL Elections?

We have the capability to respond and services to match any given electoral situation at any point in the electoral process. Although it is preferable to allow 9-12 months for the implementation of a full campaign management solution, we also have the capability to respond immediately to crisis situations if required.

How quickly can SCL Elections respond to an enquiry?

SCL Elections will respond to general enquiries immediately and can have a Campaign Director in country within 24 hours if required.

How can I trust SCL Elections?

SCL is a UK Limited Company with head offices in London. We are committed to ensuring client confidentiality and never release or share information on any of our clients’ activities without their express permission. SCL is a UK government approved commercial body authorised to undertake military and civilian projects for foreign clients. SCL has received ‘List X’ accreditation from the British Government’s Ministry of Defence, the same equivalent to Facility Security Clearance (FSC) used in other countries, which provides us with Government endorsed clearance to handle information protectively marked as ‘confidential’ and above. We have an extensive worldwide track record and enquires can be directed through any British High Commission or Embassy.

How quickly can I expect results?

Our services are results-oriented. Our scientifically driven approach allows for a clear understanding and measurement of effectiveness, and we work closely with our clients to ensure that the behavioural effects of our services are readily identifiable and measurable.

How much is it going to cost?

Given that our services are tailor-made, our costs vary depending on the extent and level of service our clients require. Generally, we provide fixed costs for specific services, such as Target Audience Analysis. In cases of full election campaign management, however, we may charge an agreed percentage of overall campaign spend.
