What that means:

Tell voters where your next event is with our events tab.

Why:

Out on the campaign trail, you need your advocates with you.  Give them dates, times, locations, and directions directly to your event.  You may not be able to drive them to your event by car, but you can drive them by sending them a push notification leading up to the event and provide driving directions via GPS in Apple Maps or Google Maps.

What this looks like:

The campaign can organize and store important information to make it readily accessible for users.

Why:

Your advocates care about the issues.  Tell them where you stand.  Our issues system is extremely easy to use.  Enter a title, a description, and a thumbnail as well as a link to be shared and you're set.

In any campaign the communication strategy can make or break the campaign.  Giving your advocates a fighting chance with shareable content like your issues can lend social credibility to your campaign as well as exposure in social media.

Issues can be shared via Facebook, Twitter, and email.  Share your platform in your advocates network with VoteRockIt.

What that means:

Once you send an instant notification to users, those users can then pass the message along through their social media accounts, allowing your message to reach an exponentially larger crowd.

Why:

Your communications strategy revolves around getting out your message, driving the narrative, and giving your advocates the the news, videos, and articles they need to share to get your message out.

VoteRockIt allows your advocates to share articles in Facebook, Twitter, and by email.  The sharing feature can send direct messages to Facebook friends using the Facebook Messenger platform.  This is important because Facebook controls what people see with a proprietary algorithm.  Let your advocates curate the content and who sees it by sending articles directly to those who it interests.

What this looks like:

Upload your voter list then manage the information and volunteers with a built in GPS.

Why:

Need to attract volunteers?  Need help canvasing the neighborhood?  With VoteRockIt you can encourage advocates to become volunteers, and give advocates a list of people nearby that need to be contacted.

Advocates can also invite their friends to the app directly via Facebook App Invites, SMS, and Twitter mentions.

For a medium size campaign every vote counts.  You must mobilize people who are willing to talk about your platform.  Give them the tools to succeed.

Ask your advocates what they care about.  Give them a choice from up to 10 issues.  You can directly message them based on the issues that they care about.

It's also incredibly valuable knowledge to hear from your advocates what issues reasonate with them.  Charge up your base!

What that means:

Directly message the voters in real time with breaking news, policy positions, fun facts, event reminders, and anything important to your organization.

Why:

Communicate with your voters directly in an unobtrusive way.  Collecting phone numbers for an SMS campaign can be daunting, and people grow weary of such direct messaging.

However, push notifications are considered much less obtrusive.  With VoteRockit you can send direct messages to your advocates.  Apple Push Notifications and Google Play messages are both supported.  Schedule notifications in advance and link to videos or articles that you want to share immediately.

This is a real time communication platform!
