Growth Means More to Explain.
Greenville County keeps growing, and growth is a communications job: road projects, rezonings, new services, storm response, budget hearings. Residents expect clear, fast, accessible information — and they notice when they don't get it.
We've done this work for the City of Spartanburg, Spartanburg County and the South Carolina Department of Education. For Greenville-area cities, the county, school districts and public agencies, we bring one senior team for public information, websites, video, social and crisis communications — scoped in a way that fits public procurement.

We've worked with the City of Spartanburg, Spartanburg County and the South Carolina Department of Education, and we scope every engagement in writing in a format that works for public procurement and budgeting.

How Government Work Is Priced
Most public-sector clients work on a defined-scope project or a monthly retainer, plus any paid campaign spend. We size it to the jurisdiction and the need, and write it up in a form that works for procurement.
Defined-scope project
A campaign, a website, a video series or a crisis plan, with deliverables and dates written down.
Monthly retainer
Ongoing public information, social and content support, plus paid media spend passed through separately.
RFP responses
We respond to formal solicitations with a written scope, references and pricing in the format you ask for.
Sidestreet Operations South Carolina LLC is the contracting entity. Insurance certificates and references are available on request.
Why Agencies Work With Us
Nonpartisan by design
Public information has to inform, not persuade. We write factual, plain-language content that explains what's happening and why, and leaves the politics where it belongs.
We also know what reporters will ask about a public project, because our founder spent fifteen years producing local news in this market.
One team instead of five vendors
Most cities and counties juggle a web vendor, a video crew, a social contractor and someone for emergencies. We're one senior team that does all of it in-house, so the message is consistent and there's one number to call.
You can start with one service — a website, a video series, a crisis plan — and add more only if it's working.
