What advocacy is NOT:
• Obtain preferential treatment for one company,
business sector (at the expense of others,
example: NRA);
• Solve day-to-day business problems or private
disputes of members;
• Policy advocacy is not to be equated with
unethical financial backdoor practices to
influence politicians

Classical issues of private sector-driven
advocacy
• Starting a business: Ease of establishing a
business, availability of credit and capital, support
for SMEs etc.;
• Running a business: Taxes, corporate
governance, labor law issues, labor costs, non-
wage labor costs;
• International competition: fair competition
legislation, enforcement of contracts, trade rules

Advocacy is often in conflict with the “official”,
i.e. governmental stand on specific issues:
•Business-friendly taxation: inheritance tax (GER)
•Trade-conducive tariff and duty legislation: TTIP
•De-bureaucratization of administrative procedures;

Key audiences of advocacy:
those who influence public policies, e.g.:
• Lawmakers: need of information on business
environment;
• Media: analyze governmental information through
alternative voice of private sector institutions;
• Bureaucrats and administration: do their job
better while having private sector perspective at
hand;

Choose the right communication tool for
positioning your advocacy right:
•Press release: clarity, brevity, details, format;
•Comment: 1-2 pager – reaction on an issue;
•Policy paper: like issue brief but more detailed and
explanatory;
•Fact sheets: answer FQAs;
•Speeches: of chairpersons and key
representatives;
•Social media

Advocacy has to be fact-based!
• A favorable investment and business climate is
central to growth and development.
• Effective policies to improve the climate require
sound evidence.
• Therefore: evidence is urgently needed to support
your policy position!

Straightforward but important:
All members of your organization (i.e.
chairpersons, directors, staff, committee members)
convey the same message!
Inconsistent messages undermine credibility of
your organization.
Inconsistent communication is a common reason
for failure of advocacy campaigns!
