Voter Contact Management

VoterID

Voter Identification - knowing precisely who your voters are - is the most important part of any campaign. That means the most crucial element in your ground game is building a marked list, or list of supporters, in advance of a Persuasion and GOTV effort.

First Contact’s professional and efficient callers will work with your campaign to identify supporters and undecided voters, to distinguish them from those who are simply not interested in your candidate or the election itself. In every interaction we try to convey important information about your candidate and the defining issues and leave a positive impression.

Whether it is a few hundred or a few hundred thousand calls, we will work with you to get all the data your campaign needs to win.

We will work with your team to:
● Identify priority calling lists
● Find the most likely supporters
● Customize your scripts to deliver important information about your candidate or cause to the target voters
● Return data to you and your campaign database in near real time

Research shows that the most effective campaign expenditure is direct voter contact. Let's start working today to communicate with your future supporters.

Persuasion Calling

The margin of victory for many campaigns is contained within the number of votes that will shift in the last days of the campaign. We do more than just identify voters, we work with your campaign to develop scripts to persuade voters about why they should support your campaign. We are experts at tailoring messaging, using data to properly target, and implement the plans using our professional call centres.

If you have even a small number of trusted volunteers, we can stream best-prospect voters to them and help prepare them with compelling scripts so they can have a big impact on your results on Election Day.

We will work with your team to:
● Write a powerful and persuasive script
● Use data to target the messaging
● Implement the plan using our efficient call centres

GOTV

Get out the vote, or GOTV, is what winning campaigns is all about. We have all the tools you need to plan a successful GOTV effort that covers Special Ballots, Advance Polls and Election Day. We can work side by side with your volunteers without making overlapping calls, and we can receive data from your polling location volunteers to remove voters from our lists, allowing us to focus on supporters who have not yet voted.

We will work with your team to:
• Plan the GOTV effort
• Motivate voters
• Supplement your campaign team resources with our automated messages and our experienced callers

Don't leave planning your Get out the Vote effort to the night before. Let's work together now to build GOTV into your winning campaign plan.
