P2P Campaigning Tools: Essential for Robust Political Organizing

Happy President’s Day, Hustlers!  Today we’re delving deeper into P2P text messaging as a campaign tool and why political organizations seek its use to drive personal, authentic conversations that strengthen relationships within communities.  We work with field and campaign managers across the country who agree that specific tools in 2022 are essential to driving successful movements from start to finish, particularly as we continue traversing the unforeseen impacts of the global pandemic. Now more than ever, an organization’s go-to outreach tools must serve as extensions of a candidate’s abilities to engage surrounding communities and implement positive change. If not, it’s time to consider expanding your strategy to include more of the channels supporters use regularly. Hustle’s here to help.  Our conversational peer-based messaging platform empowers teams to engage with their universe of contacts through two-way personalized text and video messaging.   

Traditional campaign tactics like lawn signs, newspaper ads, phone banking, and door-to-door canvassing still help candidates nurture engagement along the campaign trail, but many progressive platforms like that of Sarah McBride (DE), Nikema Williams (GA), and Jay Inslee (WA) leverage Hustle’s two-way communication platform into their outreach strategies to enhance various aspects of their campaigns while driving action at scale.

“We chose Hustle because the platform was user-friendly. It was an essential tool that helped us leverage sophisticated targeting across our organizing program, which helped us win 90% of the vote in our primary, and ultimately led to Sarah winning her seat in Delaware’s state senate.”
