Patch through campaigns
The most straightforward use of paid communication in an advocacy campaign is patch-through phone calls. This is when a paid phone bank calls residents in an undecided legislator’s district, persuades residents to speak to the policymaker in favor of the campaign’s policy, and immediately connects them to their legislator’s office where they typically either talk to a staff member or leave a voice message. We conduct patch through advocacy programs in several ways: live operator patch, automated calling, text 2 patch and social media/click to call.
- Political Campaigns: Contact voters and connect them to their legislator’s office to show their support or opposition on issues that matter to them.
- Unions or Associations: After your union or association had adopted a policy position on an issue, connect your members to their legislator’s office to show their support or opposition on issues that matter to them.
