Webinar Recap

Panelists from Community Change Action, New Jersey Organizing Project, and Michigan People’s Campaign joined us for our most recent webinar: Leveraging Relational Contact for Year-Round Organizing.
Relational organizing is one of the most effective methods of contact for campaigns, advocacy organizations, unions, and more. A recent study from Analyst Institute, conducted in partnership with Community Change Action and Impactive, showed that outreach from a friend or family member was shown to make a contact 6.5x more likely to sign a petition, and 8x more likely to opt-in to an organizing event than if reached through peer-to-peer texting.
Watch the recorded webinar to learn more about the findings from this research, and learn from our panelists’ best practices for year-round relational organizing.
What’s Next
At Impactive, we know how invaluable volunteers are to our impact-focused community. Here are a few ways we’re updating our mobile app for volunteers to enjoy a more seamless experience:
- Clearer Onboarding Flow: Volunteers are now required to enter a campaign code or search and select a campaign.
- Expanded Friends & Family Contact Options: In addition to text messaging, volunteers will be able to reach out to contacts via phone calls, emails, or DMs on social media.
- Simplified Campaign & Actions Feed: We’re launching a redesigned action feed so volunteers will be able to view content from just one campaign at a time (and switch between campaigns from a drop-down menu at the top of the screen).
- Redesigned Team & Leaderboard Info: Soon, volunteers can check in on their teams and leaderboards in a new Leaderboard tab, making it easy to view and join top teams and view their stats.
- And more!
