Strategic communications agency with integrated data and policy focus
Rational 360 is a full-service communications and public affairs firm built around data-driven campaign measurement. Their tech stack clusters heavily around social listening (Brandwatch, Talkwalker, Meltwater, Sprout Social, Khoros), survey research (Qualtrics, SurveyMonkey), and audience analytics (Google Analytics, Tableau) — revealing an organization anchored in measurement and audience intelligence rather than creative production alone. Active hiring in research and marketing roles, combined with projects around synthetic polling, geo innovation, and data/AI research offerings, signals a shift toward quantitative differentiation in a traditionally narrative-driven industry.
Notable leadership hires: Digital Director, Art Director
