Convio for Political Campaigns and Parties

Political campaigning has traditionally employed postal mail and telephone contact to solicit votes, volunteers and contributions. These methods can be slow and labor-intensive, and organizations running a campaign or working for a party now need a more cost-effective, efficient and far-reaching approach.

Dozens of political parties and candidates — including the groundbreaking Internet campaign of Howard Dean — have used Convio's integrated, ready-to-run solution for online campaigning and fundraising. Convio has helped campaigns such as these use the Internet strategically to:

• Conduct targeted, cost-effective online fundraising using micro-campaigns around specific themes, 
• Quickly build constituent lists through online registration and peer-to-peer communications, 
• Manage donor database records to enhance constituent relationships, 
• Keep in contact with supporters through targeted email.

Our suite of software and services help issue political campaigns and parties better solve needs such as managing fundraising and outreach programs over the Internet, maintain a dynamic web presence, reducing reliance on traditional mail and phone with email marketing and providing a donor database solution for managing all constituent relationships and synchronizing with other databases. Some of our clients choose to take advantage of our full suite while others use only the products they need now, and add products and services as their needs grow.

Along with proper tools for success, our clients are empowered to create custom constituent experiences to reach new supporters, more deeply engage existing supporters and drive a longer relationship with both. Convio’s Client Success Services  team helps define and execute Internet marketing plans to drive and measure results. We also provide training, technical and product usage support and account managers to cater to the unique needs of nonprofit organizations through our Convio Services.
