With all the tools and resources on the Voteworks site, planning a campaign is easy to begin and to grow step by step.

Below are steps for planning your company campaign and to navigate through the Voteworks site.

Getting Started

Decide: what is the focus of your campaign, will it be employee or customer based, or both.
Tip: see what other companies have done in Who's Doing What.

Planning an Employee Focused Campaign

Decide: do you have on-site events coming up to support employee voter registration, and are you open to doing that? Can you organize an on-site voter registration program at your locations?
Tip: look at On Site Voter Registration ideas.

Decide: do you have a company Intranet and/or email to support online employee voter registration and get out to vote reminders?

Decide: how will you Promote the Vote leading up to Election Day? Can you send a company communication? Can you put posters and flyers around your premises? Will you be able to use your intranet, email, or on-site options?
