Patch-through calls empower voters to influence their elected representatives. Winning Connections' patch-through programs combine strategic targeting, persuasive recruitment language, and a seemless connection to the critical office. We have years of experience working in the federal, state, and local legislative environments, and have played integral roles in campaigns to pass or block laws on climate change, healthcare, civil rights, funding for the arts, and local zoning issues, among others. Whether your goal is to change the country or improve your neighborhood, we are ready to create a program that will dramatically grow your campaign.
"I truly appreciate your understanding of the importance of communicating effectively with our pro-choice constituency to motivate them to contact their elected officials."
- Gloria Totten, Former Political Director, NARAL
Each patch-through program begins with careful targeting. Whether we are reaching out to members of a union, issue activists, voters who fit a certain geographic or demographic profile, we are experts at analyzing the data and sorting through the voter file. Successful patch-through recruitment requires not only targeting people who care about an issue, but finding people who are most likely to take the specific action that we will ask of them. Our goal is always to create programs that reach our clients goal in the most effecient and cost effective way possible.
Our staff at Winning Connections has deep experience campaigning on a variety of issues, ranging from environmental conservation, to labor, to national security, to reproductive choice, and everything in between. We will adapt your message, and hone it into a compelling, interactive phone script. Our goal in each patch-through call is to convey a sense of urgency, and make call recipients understand that they have the power to change their Senator or Congressman's position.
Our callers will also train the call recipients about the best way to firmly but politely communicate with legislative staff. Each call will communicate your message, recruit voters or members of your group to make a call, and then give them pointers on the most important talking points. Once each person is ready, our operators seemlessly patch them through to the correct office.
