We all start somewhere.

Our team has shared how they started in politics and their most memorable wins.

What did they learn in between?

On the campaign trail, our strategists learned to keep an ear to the ground for advice, tips, and wise words from their mentors. Some of those lessons have stayed with them through the years, and we’re sharing them with you now in this edition of #MeetMajority.

Remember, Budget Is Everything.
“While I was working as a political director, the general consultant on the campaign told me, ‘Everything is a function of budget.’”
Evan Stewart

There Are No Short Cuts.   
“For every 100 calls you make, you will only get one person to help you with whatever the task is. Need a phone bank filled? 500 volunteer recruitment calls will get you 5 shifts filled. It’s all about sweat equity and putting in the time.”
Kial Vidic

Get Creative With Your Limited Resources.
“You get four things in life;

  • time
  • money
  • people
  • ideas

“Three of those are limited resources. There are only so many hours in the day, dollars you can access, and people you can utilize, but ideas are infinite and renewable resources. Get creative in how you apply your time, money, and ideas. Then you can solve any problem.”
Brett Buerck
