2012-09-19

HINGHAM, MA, September 19, 2012 (Press-News.org) The Saint Consulting Group announces establishment of a new practice specializing in custom-designed strategic programs focused on helping large corporate clients grow and protect market share.

"Over the past thirty years we have seen a distinct change in the nature of our client engagements. Rather than simply being retained to win individual land use fights, we are increasingly asked by our largest corporate clients to develop comprehensive strategies to protect or expand market share across multiple key markets. These customized programs often involve corporate training, development of market monitoring systems, communications and social networking strategies, rapid response systems and development of comprehensive ground campaigns," said P. Michael Saint, CEO and founder of The Saint Consulting Group.

Saint Strategies leverages the unparalleled experience and depth of knowledge of top-level Saint staff to design comprehensive land use strategies for corporate clients. Saint Consulting is the oldest and largest firm specializing in the politics of land use and property development, with experience on more than 1,700 controversial development projects in 47 states, Canada and the United Kingdom.

To succeed in today's economic environment and remain competitive, companies must think long-term and look at the whole game board, rather than dart from tactical fight to tactical fight. That is where the Saint Strategies consulting practice brings value to some of the world's largest companies.

"Whether it's designing a comprehensive competitive intelligence and market share protection program, custom-crafting fixed-budget modular permitting campaigns, or advising a C-level team on how to approach the political difficulties associated with entering a foreign market, Saint Strategies has the depth, the experience, and the adaptability to help its clients succeed," said Saint Consulting President Patrick Fox.

Saint Strategies provides expertise across a wide range of industry sectors, including:
• Aggregates & Quarries
• Commercial Real Estate
• Energy
• Entertainment & Gaming
• Healthcare
• Infrastructure & Transportation
• Mining
• Residential
• Waste & Recycling

Saint Consulting has also launched a completely redesigned corporate website — tscg.biz —featuring case studies, industry sector insights, videos and home of the Saint Report, the firm's regularly updated blog of thought leadership, articles, commentary, best practices and analysis.

As experts in the politics of land use, The Saint Consulting Group specializes in getting citizens to participate in the public approval process for controversial land use projects. Established in 1983, the firm has offices near Boston, Nashville, Chicago and San Francisco, and international affiliates in Toronto, Vancouver, London and Berlin. The company also conducts the widely recognized Saint Index, the only comprehensive survey that annually quantifies and tracks American attitudes about development and the politics of land use.
