Direct Public Advocacy for the Internet Age
Political representatives have become wise and desensitized to the public advocacy methods employed by advocacy organizations. Petitions and form letters are no longer effective advocacy tools and are often ignored or publicly excoriated. Yet their ease of facilitation and numerical demonstration of action support their continued use.
CloudCanvass Advocate enables the low friction, easy to use, numerically demonstrable method of advocacy that petitions and form letters facilitate with a proven and high value method of outreach that political representatives cannot deny: a phone call to their office.
Traditional Advocacy
Whether submitting a petition or sending in pre-written form letters traditional public advocacy tools suffer from the common problem of being easy to dismiss.
Petitions can be dismissed as having been stacked by slacktivists or faked.
Even the most advanced methods of generating form letters can be filtered for and ignored.
CloudCanvass Advocate
CloudCanvass Advocate asks for a marginal increase in the public’s time in order to deliver a more forceful and undeniable message to the public representative.
Just like with traditional advocacy methods high level statistics can be tracked, such as the number of calls, and more in-depth statistics, such as average call duration and number of call completions, can be noted.
How It Works
- Public’s phone number is obtained and verified for use as Caller ID when calling public representatives.
- Low friction, minimal commitment advocacy as with traditional advocacy tools hosted on the internet.
- Additional metrics by which to judge success of campaign as compared to traditional advocacy tools.
- Metrics collected reside with the advocate and are independently verifiable.
