Before

Before engaging with Effct, voters defeated the same initiative in 2015 (Referred Question 2A) with  52% of citizens voting NO.

After

After working with Effct, voters approved the same initiative (Ordinance 300) in 2018 with 52% of citizens voting YES.

This was a total team effort, and digital played a big role.

Effct generated 3.5 million social media impressions for the campaign, and brought newfound hope to the campaign.

 

The ordinance will generate $170 million for deserving Denver students to achieve their dream of higher education. The key was focusing on what we needed to do to win, and then executing that plan

“The Effct team did an outstanding job developing and executing an integrated communications package. They were not just a vendor, but rather an essential part of the campaign team. Nick and Uriel were hands-on, responsive and nimble, actively responding to comments across our social media platforms. They stayed in constant communication with me and I knew I could pick up the phone and talk with them at anytime. Overall they were instrumental to our victory, and I look forward to working with them on future efforts.”

How to Get from First-Time Candidate to Election Victor in Six Months Using Grassroots Digital Media Without Wasting Money

Before

Jennifer Bacon was an outstanding teacher, lawyer, and organizer. Still, Ms. Bacon had little name recognition in her district. Her social media presence was also minimal and inconsistent.

After

The campaign partnered with Effct to supplement their outstanding field team. We focused on persuading voters Bacon's experience as a teacher would make her an outstanding school board member. 

On election night, Ms. Bacon won by a margin of 9 points, and received 42% of the vote, defeating an incumbent.

On social, Effct reached almost 100,000 voters, generating 400,000 impressions.

"Effct was an integral member of our campaign team. From building target audiences, to crafting engaging and on-message content, to adjusting strategy based on real-time data, Effct ensured our digital strategy could compete. In a competitive race, having a strong digital program was critical to our win on election night."
