Social Media

The evolution of the relationship between the Internet and campaigns has been stunning in its speed and transformative in its power. From 2004 with meet-ups and small dollar donations, to the 2006 explosion of the power of the Netroots online community, to the 2008 incorporation of social networking, to the micro-blogging and crowd-sourcing of 2010, the tools needed to execute a successful campaign will continue to change as the reach of the web grows and broadband access becomes universal.

In short, voters and supporters are no longer considered as just buyers who are simply asked to show up on Election Day and cast their vote. Through Internet interactivity they have been empowered to become partners.

As a result, you not only need a social media strategy in place to help your organization make the most of the new social media landscape, but you need a full, creative team backing it up regularly.  

In an era where everyone is plugged in, responding and participating in a vibrant discussion, your organization cannot afford to site on the sidelines or just dip a toe into the social media waters.  

VShift can help you avoid missing out on this key opportunity to win supporters, shape the discussion, and amplify your message.

VShift's team has run full-scale social media campaigns for dozens of political and advocacy clients, developing a comprehensive strategy to use those tools to transform supporters into fully invested, knowledgeable, and effective team members.
