Campaign 101: Learning from Major Campaigns, Offers Insights into Running Local Elections

Brad Bannon



In the same way that high school football players can learn a lot about the game by watching the pros play in the Super Bowl, local political activists should be able to learn a lot about campaigns by watching the players in the presidential race.

By the same token, the people who work in presidential races can easily forget the basic rules of politics they learned when they started out as local political activists. In fact if you examine closely the inside workings of the Kerry campaign, as the editors of Newsweek did in the new book, ‘Election 2004’, it is clear that

Budgeting Your Campaign the Right Way: Building a Business to Go Out of Business

Marty Stone



The budget is the least glamorous, yet most important part of any campaign.  We hear constantly about who’s raised how much but we rarely hear about fundraising’s mirror image – who’s spent how much on what? 

How many times have we seen candidates with fat war chests lose unexpectedly? Sure, the candidate with the most money wins most of the time, but not every time. 

Most of the time when an under funded candidate pulls off an upset, it is not only because that underdog had a better message but also because that candidate spent his or her money mor

Presentation Development

Randall P. Whatley

Audience analysis 

Presentations should always be tailored to your audience. Your knowledge of the audience to which you will speak is an important factor in the success of your presentations.

Focusing Your Campaign through Polling & Focus Groups

Paul M. Fallon



When every fledgling campaign comes into existence, it soon realizes two important things.  First, the opposing campaign is not the only competition it faces, and second, that having the best qualified candidate doesnt guarantee success.  The primary reasons for both phenomena are essentially the same:  it is getting more difficult to reach people.    As a result, sometimes the campaign that wins isnt always the one with the best candidate, but is the one with the best message and strategy for communicating it!

Overcome your Fears & Become a Great Speaker

Randall P. Whatley

All the great speakers were bad speakers at first. - Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1860

You are already a great speaker. You give great presentations every day.

Think about how often you successfully communicate your ideas to loved ones, co-workers, or acquaintances. You make a simple point. You choose language that they understand and to which they can relate. You answer their objections satisfactorily. You close with them agreeing to do something you want them to do. You just employed the great elements of a successful speech.

Then you are asked to speak to 15 people about a s

Campaign 2.0: Upgrading your Campaign

Benjamin A. Katz

Web 2.0 is a term that gets thrown around a lot. It refers to many different aspects of new technology, although it isn’t always clear which pieces of technology are and aren’t Web 2.0. In fact, if you have a conversation with different technology advocates, you’ll probably get competing definitions and applications.

Basically, Web 2.0 is the idea that the internet can be used to empower people, paired with new technology that allows for more rapid development and faster applications. It allows you to provide tools so that people can develop their own content and make their own connect
