Political Campaigns

Revenue Typhoon is THE expert in Internet and social media marketing.  We connect candidates to powerful online communities and make it easy to sign up for and receive personal communications through SMS text messaging and email.

We offer a full array of custom solutions.  A few specific programs are below.

Twitter Community

Picture
Millions of activists have joined Twitter and #TheResistance movement in response to the current political environment. Revenue Typhoon builds on that success, adds technology so it's more useful to you, and customizes it for your candidate with an Integrated Campaign Twitter program. 
  • Piggyback on the #TheResistance. These activist followers are sure to include many in your district or state.
  • Find new voters. The program makes it easy for your online constituents to find the candidate.
  • Build an active community.  Your followers will read, post, comment, retweet, and like candidate news and information.
  • Attract new followers.  As the online community grows in members and activity, it will act as a magnet to bring in more members through the family,  friends, business associates, and other followers of the members.
  • Convert Twitter followers to actual volunteers and activists.  A key part of the program is capturing follower emails and phone numbers for direct contact and followup.  Participants submit an online registration form to ensure they're legitimate and not bots. Member registration information can be sent to you or even integrated directly into your campaign software and email database. 

Advanced SMS Text Messaging

Text messaging is a powerful registration and communications tool for candidates. Volunteers and activists don't have to be at their computer to sign up for info or join a list. They can register from anywhere from their phone.

Texts are also far more effective to keep volunteers and activists updated. Recipients get important information immediately no matter where they are on their phone. Compare this to email where only 12% of typical emails are actually opened and the average response time is over 2 days. 

Many campaigns already send weekly text messages to their followers on upcoming events and news.  Candidates have found text messages to be an effective way to get more people at events. Revenue Typhoon takes text messaging to a higher level with powerful interactive and database features.

Here are a few text message applications.

Direct Candidate Updates
Outgoing text messages can be made more powerful several ways. 
  • Texts can be scheduled to go out in sync with upcoming events, canvassing, etc.
  • Separate lists can be set up and used for any combination of volunteers, canvassers, office staff, donors, etc.
  • Messages can be personalized with database information, such as name, location, donations, last contact, etc.
  • Messages can promote and link to web pages, such as for events, donations, policies, your last newsletter, social media links and programs like the Integrated Twitter Campaign above, etc. 
Mobile
Registration
 Picture
Anywhere the candidate or her representatives speak, present, or attend is a perfect opportunity to capture volunteers and activists for your email and text messaging lists.

A table for signup forms is ineffective and only captures a few people. The solution is to use the phone already in everyone's pocket or purse.

Volunteers and voters can conveniently sign up via text message at rallies, fundraising events, partner events, field visits at voter homes, etc.

Candidate speeches are an ideal time for mobile registration. All the candidate has to do is tell the audience to text their name and email to the text campaign number to get on the mailing list and then wait a minute for people to do so. We've had almost 100% of listeners do so at our own events! Learn about our commercial speakers service at SpeakerLeads.net.
Yard Signs
Signs don't have to be static low value branding. Supercharge them with active direct response! Real estate agents do this by adding their phone number on their yard signs.  Make your signs even more effective by adding your text messaging campaign phone number. Voters driving or walking by can easily and conveniently join your campaign lists via phone 24 hours a day.

Advertising & Print Materials
Campaign text signup isn't limited to rallies, other events, and yard signs. It's ideal anywhere people come in contact with the candidate and your materials. Use it on advertising, flyers, door hangers, buttons, and any print materials.
