Conversation: The State of Online Campaign Fundraising
Show Notes

On today’s episode, we’re having a free-flowing discussion about the current status of online fundraising for campaigns. We’ve seen recent polls confirm what we know anecdotally that voters - not just activists - are getting burnt out by aggressive fundraising tactics. What should political professionals do with this information?

To answer that question and more, we’re joined by two experienced digital political operatives who have helped candidates, PACs, and non-profits raise millions of dollars online.

Ian Hines is a Republican digital strategist who specializes in fundraising for state parties.

Allen Fuller is the Founder of Flat Creek, an advocacy and technology firm. He’s been doing digital campaigning since we called them “e-campaigns.”
