Elking Consulting LLC is a women-owned government relations firm that is committed to opening the doors of power and influence in Illinois.

 

Our mission is to help others gain access to opportunities.

 

Our firm represents companies who want a tailor-made strategy to achieve their goals. Our clients are visionaries; they are impressive, they are busy, and they have substantial expertise in their industry. They have already achieved tremendous success and have an interesting story to tell. They just want more access to opportunities. And most importantly, they want increased influence and revenue. 

 

Our firm is the connector.

Why Do I Need Government Relations?

Every business is inherently affected by public policy and government regulation. Whether you participate or not, decisions will be made that affect your profitability and your operations. It is in your best interest to stay informed about public policies and to try to influence the decisions that affect your business.

 

As the old proverb goes: “The squeaky wheel gets the grease.” When you do not participate, you are overlooked, cut out or first on the chopping block.

You must have someone in every important room and in every decision-making process who represents you and your interests specifically.

"How are we different?"

Elking Consulting is a different kind of lobbying firm, because we see power, and those who wield it, differently. Being women-run, our firm tells an often untold perspective in the government relations sector, and we intentionally approach our work through a critical and inclusive lens.

Ultimately, we believe the details matter

 

We are meticulous in our advocacy and strategy.

 

And we know our firm has the tenacity, discipline, and connections to get our clients the success they want.

The Industries

Our clients have found their bespoke government strategy to be profit-generating, and over
time, our clients have seen a return on their investment.
