Summer on a Campaign – Gathering IDs

In our last Partner Perspective we discussed the “Changing Tide of ID Work” and the success that we have seen
from a campaign that has a superior ID plan. It is now the middle of summer and with your volunteer effort ramping up it is imperative to be proactive in gathering IDs and laying a strong foundation for your GOTV effort. FLS Connect is on hand to help you achieve an ID program that is superior to the rest. The ground-breaking Volunteer Connect technology and Geo Connect technology allow your volunteers to collect voter information with ease, giving you real time results on where they stand on the most important issues facing them. Our innovative Townhall Connect program gives you the ability to interact with voters and have a live and personal discussion about the most important issues facing them.

Auto / Live phone programs should be a fundamental part of your campaign. These services give you the ability to obtain an accurate representation of your district with less expense and time than traditional polling methods, in fact the results are added to your original data file the next day. This will give you the ability to quickly and correctly target the top issues in your district. This program is so effective that in a recent analysis of turnout calls we discovered that those who receive an issue based message voted at the rate of two-to-one over those that did not receive an issue based turnout call. Our most effective ID program – Voice Variable gives you the ability to make the call more personal by using voice technology to address the voter by name.

Our phone-from-home platform, Volunteer Connect, gives a volunteer the ability to make ID calls from the comfort of their own home and with no expense to the volunteer. Geo Connect technology allows volunteers to go door-to-door collecting IDs without the use of a clipboard, pen and paper. The easy to use and convenient technology allows the volunteer to collect the data with their own mobile phones. After each use of our Volunteer Connect and Geo Connect programs, you will receive your results automatically and your data will be updated the same day. These products are user friendly and easy to learn, you will be able to utilize your volunteers to train others, lessening the burden on the campaign staff.

Our Townhall Connect program not only gives you the ability to have a live discussion with voters but it also has the technology to conduct polling over the phone with each participant’s phone touchpad. This program allows you to discuss and gauge what issues are on the minds in different parts of your district and to be on thousands of voters’ “doorsteps” all at once.

We hope that you have seen how helpful our technology can be to your campaign, with multiple options that will help you gather IDs and at the same time build your volunteer base.
