Posted Jul 29

Grow Progress makes persuasion radically more efficient and affordable for social good strategists, progressive activists, marketers, and brands.

Who We Are

  • We’ve built powerful software that gives our customers unprecedented ability to run scientific message tests quickly and affordably, so they can identify the most effective messages. This capability powers campaigns, causes, and companies to make the world a better place. We currently work with many of the most prominent Democratic pollsters, marketing agencies, advocacy groups, and labor unions in the country.
  • Grow Progress empowers our clients to persuade more people by tailoring their messages to what motivates their audience, their identities, and how they think. We help customers harness the latest persuasion science to create messages that are up to five times more effective than ads they didn’t test.
  • We’re a team of experienced field organizers, campaigners, political researchers, and data scientists who are obsessed with harnessing the power of evidence to help our clients win hearts, minds, customers, and votes.
