Social Media Messaging That Elevates Your Political Campaign
In today’s increasingly online world, social media has become more influential than ever and mastering this art can help you effectively deliver a winning message to the right voters for your campaign.
The key to a winning social media message is creating your brand voice, staying on message, handling the hecklers, and maintaining consistency.
Creating Your Brand Voice
The first step in creating your brand voice is determining why you are running. What emotions do you want your campaign to evoke? Showcase your individuality and unique positions that will make voters remember you and respect your authenticity. Once you determine your feel, focus, and brand voice, make sure you stay on brand.
Staying on Message
Once you have created your brand and voice, it’s vital to create a message guide for your campaign - and stick to it. Consistency is key. An easy way to make sure you stay on message is don’t respond to unreliable, angering posts or breaking news until you have had time to vet them and identify how your response fits with your message.
Handling the Hecklers
The #1 thing to consider with hecklers is that you most likely won’t change their mind. Instead of getting angry or trying to persuade them, focus on how your responses can persuade others reading the posts. Always behave in a polite manner and think about how you can use this opportunity to further the goal of civil dialogue and your campaign in general.
Maintaining Consistency
Once you have developed your brand and message, stick to it! Again, consistency is key. Now that your message is consistent, make sure your social media schedule is consistent as well. Reinforcing the same key ideas on a steady timeline will resonate with voters and help them remember you.
With the right message and execution, social media can make all the difference in a winning political campaign.
