Mobilization Strategy Development, presented by Jose Nunez

Coming soon!

This is a training geared towards developing strategy plans with a focus on mobilization of supporters. It’s primarily focused on short campaign timelines, 3 months for example, to develop a plan from start to finish. The audience for these are generally people with pre-existing infrastructure, currently at an org or campaign, who want new knowledge or a refresher on building an effective mobilization strategy.

Creators: The Next Frontier of Digital Strategy, presented by Vidyut Ghuwalewala

April 11, 2024

12:00 – 1:30 PST / 3:00 – 3:30pm EST

Digital strategies in the progressive space are rapidly evolving beyond traditional owned or paid media channels. Digital practitioners are increasingly turning to creators — people with existing audiences on social media — to amplify their message to audiences they otherwise would not reach. After this webinar series, you will have another tool in your digital arsenal and learn how these tactics can be used effectively at your organization. This workshop will touch on many topics in the space, from the technicalities of how to set up a paid creator digital program from scratch to workshopping your own campaign.
