You’ve invited all your friends and loved ones, and everyone’s RSVP’d. You’ve prepared the snacks, the decorations, and even cleaned your entire home. All that’s left to do is make the playlist. Do you pull out all of your vinyl records, figure out the best order to play each song, and then stop your conversation, put your drink down, and swap the records in and out of the machine every three minutes to make sure you set the perfect vibe? Probably not. So maybe you just give in and let the records play out one by one. You end up ceding your control of the perfect playlist in order to get it done, even though it’s not really what you wanted. Or do you just click into your favorite streaming service, hit play, and enjoy the night with friends?

You Deserve One Solution That Can Do It All

While it’s true that vinyl has a place in many of our hearts, it doesn’t make much sense to use it for anything more complicated than playing a single album. And though they have a good sound at first, they aren’t personalizable or adaptable, and they definitely don’t get automatic updates (so good luck listening to those new Taylor’s Version songs!). Even if you’re a die-hard fan of vinyl, you probably wouldn’t give up your music streaming service of choice for your day-to-day needs—it’s just that convenient. “Wait a second,” you may be saying. “I thought Quorum was a public affairs software. Why are we talking about music streaming?” Well, just like it doesn’t make sense to rely on an outdated music format for your everyday use, it doesn't make much sense to rely on a public affairs tool that siloes off users, isn’t the most adaptable to your workflow, and is slow to respond to its audience’s needs. Instead of the vinyl records of public affairs, you deserve to have access to the latest and greatest, the most flexible and advanced solution, the music streaming of public affairs: Quorum.

FiscalNote: The Vinyl Records of Public Affairs Software

But let’s back up for a moment: why do we think FiscalNote is the vinyl of public affairs software? Consider the scenario above about building your perfect playlist. The main challenge with vinyl records is that you can only listen to the songs from one record at a time, and as a result, you need to adapt your listening habits to the limitations of the technology. Similarly, a number of FiscalNote's solutions weren't built on a single unified system, which can limit the data you have access to at a given time. For example, FiscalNote’s federal and state policy tracking (FiscalNote Federal and State), local monitoring (Curate), and grassroots tools (VoterVoice) were not built together from the ground up. After login, each software is siloed off so that users of one tool can’t see what’s going on in another tool without opening another tab. When tools and data aren’t unified, it’s harder, slower, and less efficient to get insights. Let’s say you’re the head of a public affairs function, and you want to see the impact of the federal, state, local, and grassroots advocacy teams over the past year. With FiscalNote, you would need to either go into each tool separately and build reports one at a time to compare manually—and hope that the dates and measurements line up—or you’d need to export the data from each tool and visualize it in a spreadsheet tool (yet another software). This is just one example of the system forcing you to adapt to its limitations, instead of having the system work with your needs. Contrast this with Quorum, where the same person would be able to create a reporting dashboard with insights from Quorum Federal, State, Local, and Grassroots with a few clicks. (Not only that, but Quorum can show impact over time, rather than simply a moment in time snapshot). Siloed products don’t only affect heads of office. When federal, state, and grassroots teams can't see each other's data, teams end up duplicating work or worse—sending mixed signals to important stakeholders. A unified tool, on the other hand, allows teams to share intelligence, borrow from each others’ successful tactics, and march to the same drum on important policy priorities.

Music Streaming Services & Quorum Both Give You Fast Updates

One of the reasons people use streaming services is the convenient addition of new songs, albums, and features as they are released by the artist. Conversely, one of the drawbacks of records is that getting new music takes longer—you have to physically go and get the new record from the store or your mailbox, then swap out the records, then listen. The same is true for public affairs software: the best vendor will prioritize making frequent updates and improvements to improve the experience of their customers. For example, in early 2024 Quorum unveiled Quorum Copilot, which is AI for public affairs that empowers all Quorum users of the relevant products to speed up bill tracking workflows and improve their messaging (among other benefits).

Quorum: The Music Streaming of Public Affairs

Like streaming services, Quorum brings together lots of data and then layers on flexible, useful tools to control and organize it. With music, that means songs and albums from many different artists, with tools to sort music into the perfect arrangement for each user. With Quorum, that means policy, dialogue, and news from every level of government, with tools to build and execute a winning strategy. Here’s a few other ways Quorum is the music streaming of public affairs: Flexible & Personalized: Quorum offers flexible tools to organize data any way you want, from legislative scorecards to customized reporting to unconventional tracking workflows, just as music streaming lets you keep your music library organized by album, artist, date of release, and more. Personalized Experience: In Quorum, individual users or teams can get custom alerts, set their own reporting dashboard as their homepage, and showcase custom data (shown below) in meetings or leave-behinds. Similarly, streaming lets you make the perfect playlist for any occasion. Collaborative Features: Teams can use Quorum to share analysis and reporting, set up alerts for each other, and collaborate on stakeholder engagement. With password-protected, shareable reporting, even people without a Quorum account can take part. In much the same way, the streaming era has allowed music lovers to share playlists and collaborate on music discovery. Analytics & Insights: Quorum’s reporting tools help users understand policy trends and the ROI of their efforts, then use that data to build a strategy to win. In a similar fashion, each year streaming services publish insights about the genre, artist, albums, and songs each user loved the most that year.

Beyond the Turntable: Press Play on a Better Approach to Public Affairs

For some people, of course, vinyl records are a great choice. Vinyls have a history, a character, and a great sound. In the same way, FiscalNote might be a good option for some teams. For example, if you don’t want to collaborate with other teams, a siloed solution probably won’t bother you. But for others, the fast updates, collaboration tools, and personalization of streaming make it indispensable for everyday music listening. Teams who want those same benefits in a public affairs solution should turn to Quorum: the streaming of public affairs.
