For Candidates
Red2Blue Texting continually evaluates peer-to-peer texting vendors, including ThruText, Spoke, and Hustle. These vendors enable our volunteers to send text messages to voters and collect data based on voter responses.
We evaluate potential vendors based on the best possible rate they can provide to the candidates and organizations we support as well as the back-end administrative controls required for our lead organizers and volunteers to provide the best possible texting services.
In addition to a vendor’s capacity to provide introductions to candidates and organizations who could benefit from the support of Red2Blue Texting, these are the other are the features we evaluate and prioritize:
The needs of our campaigns, in the form of affordable or discounted pricing and a responsive sales team for account setups
Excellent tech support services with quick turnaround times, kindness and courtesy, communication at each step of troubleshooting, and collaboration with Red2Blue Texting organizers and volunteers in reaching solutions
Quality administrative features for campaign building and management as well as text assigning and quality control
Priorities of our power texters, like texting send speed, minimal buggy behavior while sending, mobile usability, ability to easily organize and manage voter conversations
Ease of VAN integration in both pulling lists from VAN and pushing texting data back to VAN for our organizers
Extensive documentation and developer support for Red2Blue Texting tools teams to build efficient automation tools for our work
