Primary Concentration
Government
People who make decisions that affect the world seek Cornerstone for counsel. We don’t have to open doors for our clients. Our business model is based upon perpetually open doors and unfettered access because we are a trusted source of counsel for those who are Philadelphia’s, the region, state and nation’s leaders. This approach makes Cornerstone an essential asset for corporations and entities who require unusual access. With more than 15 years of senior government experience at the highest levels of the US Congress, we manage relationships forged over decades of trust to yield positive outcomes now. Cornerstone possesses a unique ability to influence both “blue” and “red” leaders. Our thinking is powerfully “purple,” a unique and effortless combination of red and blue. We are not hostages to ideology or philosophy. Like our clients, our interests are not monolithic or even two dimensional. Complex times and problems demand innovative thinking, swift action, and an ability to influence decision makers. From Philly’s City Hall to Montgomery County’s seat of government, and from the Commonwealth’s capital to Washington, DC, Cornerstone’s decades
of success and experience measurably benefit our clients. With a genuine passion for the intricacies of complex political landscapes, we bring an unparalleled level of understanding and insight to every client engagement. Our extensive experience and expertise enable us to provide tailored and effective public relations services, strategic thinking, unique positioning, and that extra push that clients require to maximize outcomes.
Healthcare
Cornerstone PR Group has demonstrated its expertise in working with the healthcare sector to develop innovative strategies for underserved communities. Through our collaborative efforts with corporations and government, we have successfully implemented campaigns aimed at amplifying access, affordability, adoption of products and services and outreach to individuals, consumers, and institutions. During COVID 19, Cornerstone’s partners conceived and executed one of the most impactful grassroots efforts seen during the pandemic’s darkest hours. With the Black Doctors COVID-19 Consortium, we both tested and vaccinated hundreds of thousands of people. Many lives were saved because of trusted, strategic and targeted messages aimed at otherwise distrustful audiences. With churches, mosques and synagogues as leading sources
of confidence, Cornerstone leveraged parking lots, pastors, rabbis, and institutions and turned them into “field hospitals” and financial donors. Cornerstone developed relationships with faith institutions to speedily mobilize messaging and solutions that made a difference when hospitals and government were paralyzed. We showed that innovation and grit combined with compassion are a winning formula for making a difference.
Cornerstone has leveraged access to dental care for American troops around the globe,
particularly in partnership with the US Army and Air Force Exchange Service. We take great pride in empowering our nation’s warriors ensuring their dental needs are met, thereby contributing to their overall well-being and readiness in the most strenuous and tumultuous corners of the globe.
Sports and Entertainment
Cornerstone has developed strategies and executed plans for American professional sports franchises as they change arena relocations, build new venues, and tackle the challenges of a complex political and media landscape. The intricate ballet of public opinion, messaging, community support and legislative success have been entrusted to Cornerstone by billion-dollar franchises.
