Yesterday, I met with a small group of our most dedicated and active sales people for the purpose of crafting a strategy to go and get our share of the massive amount of political dollars that will be spent between now and election day in November on voice broadcast and get-out-the-vote calls. Those present included myself, Gordon Clarke, Keith Hanson and Keith Harrison. Ryan Jessop is also a part of this spearhead group, but he lives in Montana so I didn't invite him to attend.
In keeping with our discussions, we're creating a new website this week: http://cgotv.org. You won't find anything there today because we haven't yet uploaded any files. But we did reserve the domain name and I created the space on our company web server for this new site. The URL is an acronym that stands for Conservative Get-Out-The-Vote (CGOTV.ORG). Since this is a marketing effort with a political cause, we chose to set it up as an organization rather than a normal commercial website. We also decided that if we're going to enter the political arena, we would do so in support of a cause about which everyone in ownership and management is passionate: Conservative values for America. We'll make a profit selling our services, but at the same time, our philosophy will be to provide the best services at a price far below that of the competition as our contribution to furthering the cause that we believe will preserve the America in which we believe. We are all determined to do our part to ensure that the current President has only one term in office, so the country can begin healing itself from all the damage he has already caused.
We'll provide discounted services to political parties and candidates who's political values are consistent with basic conservatism as we understand it. Our emphasis will be to sell predictive dialing services because this is by far the most cost-effective service we offer. But we'll also offer robocalling, surveys and our new VMD services. We studied numerous competitor sites and got a number of good ideas about how to present ourselves. Surprisingly NOBODY out there in the voice broadcast or call center industry has declared themselves to be a CONSERVATIVE company, focused on rendering services exclusively for that political cause. But there ARE some voice broadcast firms that focus on Democrat and Liberal causes. Now "our side" has an ally ("us!") in this particular form of media! We have made the affirmative decision to only provide our political services to promote the cause in which we so strongly believe, so don't expect to find any Democrat or Left-leaning Clients sending political messages from our servers. If any liberal or left-wing Clients request our services, we will politely decline to provide service to them because this is a cause-based effort.
Since this is a limited-time promotion, we are controlling the the sales efforts (somewhat). Any Associate is welcome to join us to make these political sales. However, we will be selective and only accept those who are willing to put in the necessary time and effort. Naturally, the public will have full access to the website, which will be announced in both our public and private blog sites by the end of the week when the site is deployed. If you are interested in joining this sales effort, please contact either myself or Gordon Clarke our Director of Business Development (801-253-6365) directly. We are assigning geographical territories for this effort so we don't confuse the prospects with contact from multiple Associates. We welcome inquiries and offers of help from all who wish to join us.
The goal is to have our new HTTP://CGOTV.ORG website up and running before start of business next Monday, February 27, 2012. Keep watching this blog for related announcements.
