With 2025 fast approaching, now is the time to get your communications plan in place for the new year. There are several important steps to take before the holidays to ensure your office is ready for the 119th Congress, and it’s as simple as one, two, three:
- Build or expand your constituent contact listsÂ
- Schedule Telephone Town HallsÂ
- Learn a new feature in your IQ CMSÂ
One of the most important ways to communicate directly with the citizens you represent is through email and text messages. Having an accurate contact list is vital. L2 constituent mapping enables you to reach beyond your opt-in subscriber list and gives your message further reach so you can educate your citizens.Â
Start planning your 2025 telephone town hall calendar. Once you’ve created a priority constituent contact list, use town halls to share your priorities with your constituents. Inform your district of your activities, spread your message, and burnish your reputation as being a good listener and representative of the people.Â
