Guides

Five short guides for the parts of a first campaign that feel hardest the first time. Each one takes a few minutes and ends with something you can do this week.

  1. How to pick your three issues Why three, how to find yours, and the test each one has to pass before it goes on the website. 4 minute read
  2. How to run your first volunteer day A Saturday morning plan, from the coffee order to the group photo, that sends people home wanting to come back. 5 minute read
  3. How to knock doors What to say, what to carry, when to leave, and how to keep the count that tells you whether it is working. 5 minute read
  4. How to ask for money The twenty-call list, the words for the ask, and what to do when someone says maybe. 4 minute read
  5. How to talk to local press How a one-person newsroom works, what makes a story easy to run, and the first email to send. 4 minute read

These guides cover how to campaign, not the law. For registration, disclaimers, limits and deadlines, go to Campaign Compliance Hub and the official sources it links.
