The Traditionals vs The Digitals

Posted by Karen 1 April, 2010 As Campaign Budgets, Digital Politics Podcast, Do TV ads work?, Technology to Watch (0) Comment

Guest on Digital Politics podcast today is political consultant Steve Kramer (gotvcalls@gmail.com), from Get Out the Vote.  Steve and I both attended the AAPC event last week in Phoenix where he interviewed many of the speakers and exhibitors for a video project. We share some thoughts about the changing focus of this yearly event for political consultants and how the “Traditionals” are coping with the growth of digital competition.

Steve shares some of his insights about creating web videos and experience with creating messages that get the attention of undecided and Independent voters.

Most interesting trend Steve saw at the event was a mobile app that streamlines the field operation.  Is this the year mobile apps will significantly change the way campaigns are managed?

Listen to this interview with someone who knows what it takes to get the vote.

Trick or treating and canvassing the neighborhood have many of the same qualities.  What if the Halloween revelers were also asking about the need to vote for a candidate or cause?
