About Us
Founded in 2005, the Liberty Lab offers design, custom online development, WordPress expertise, and consulting services to two primary client-types:
1. Small and mid-sized corporate entities and associations who need custom apps, websites, configurators, calculators, plugins, and databases.
2. Advocacy organizations and initiatives in the free-market think tank community and center-right political arena that need expertise in online communications, email marketing, data aggregation, and consulting services.
Through our data partners, our solutions served more than half of the 2016 presidential campaigns. We have also delivered countless high quality online solutions for our ad agency partners and are also proud to have enjoyed such clients as Richard Nixon Presidential Library, American Diabetes Association, Newt 2012, FreedomWorks, Contract from America, State Policy Network, Empirical Bioscience, Capitol Votes, JustFacts, and many hundreds more.
Our Approach
Our goal is to foster an atmosphere of collaboration that helps identify the best possible solutions. Throughout the process, we focus on creating a strong working relationship with our clients characterized by open communication and desire to find solutions that combine the best of both new and proven technologies.
One Size Does Not Fit All
Before we talk, we listen. We ask lots of questions. We do more listening. We make recommendations. Then we develop. Every solution is customized to meet the exact needs of your organization based on a complete understanding of project goals, the unique characteristics of your user community, the priorities of your primary stakeholders, the extent of internal expertise, budgetary constraints, and schedule.
