Running For Office?
With the days counting down for people to make it to the polls, candidates that are running for office should use the Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) Program months before to gain the most awareness for their campaign. No matter the issues, as you run for office, you want to get your message out there faster and more effectively than your competitor.
With all the TV ads, radio ads, social media, billboards, and yard signs scattered about, using direct mail will improve your chances of awareness. No other marketing medium will get your message directly into your constituents' hands to encourage them to vote for you in the upcoming election. They can even serve as a reminder to your customers to remember to vote that day. When your constituents physically see your plan of action in their hands, it makes much more of a connection than to tell them about it over the radio.
You want your constituents to make informed voting decisions when it comes to election day. And by offering a more traditional channel for message distribution, your campaign's goals will be more spread throughout your local area as well as more personable. As the day rolls around, you want your constituents to know who and what they are voting for. To increase the awareness for your campaign and to encourage more of your local area to vote for you, you can inspire them by direct mailing your goals to improve your local government. You want to be able to get your message out there in any way possible so that your constituents are able to weigh the pros and con in time for election day.
Direct mail can facilitate your campaign by reaching the people that mean the most to you, the locals that you will be serving. Their voices can be heard through you but you have to let them know that you are there for them personally and that is what the EDDM program will do for your election campaign.
