Because what matters more?
From the local council chambers to the state capitol, your voice will be heard.
After 30 years of personal and professional experience, we founded LA Matters Consulting, LLC to provide Louisiana’s industrial complex with reliable and innovative strategy, disciplined execution, and honest counsel. We understand how policy decisions affect operations on the ground and how to engage decision-makers effectively to achieve success.
Strategic Advocacy. Trusted Relationships. Real Results.
Our Services
Local and Economic Development Engagement
You’ll receive support for parish and municipal relations, incentives, permitting strategy, and community engagement tied to expansion and operations. We help clients engage local, parish, and state officials, economic development organizations, and community leaders to support your project at every stage.
Strategic Advocacy & Issue Management
We specialize in proactive issue identification, stakeholder engagement, and message development to manage risk and shape outcomes. We help your project build credibility, shape narratives, and manage complex issues that affect your reputation, workforce, and long-term viability.
Governmental Affairs
We work with other statewide associations to monitor, analyze, and influence legislation and regulations that impact Louisiana manufacturing at the state and local level. Our services include legislative monitoring and analysis, direct advocacy before elected officials and agencies, and regulatory strategy and compliance support. Our team keeps you informed, prepared, and positioned to respond before issues become obstacles.
Let others make noise.
We’ll make everything else.
We are proud to support Industry Makes, a campaign born out of collaboration and a need to present a united industrial front in the face of coordinated anti-industrial messaging. We understand that anti-industrial messages and misinformation may target one company or several, but they hurt the entire manufacturing industry, which is the economic backbone of Louisiana. From the shoes on our feet to the products essential to our healthcare, Louisiana’s industries are in the business of making it all.
