I've been in communications now for 7 years. The single most important thing I've ever done is to snag a number...a toll-free number that will help make HIS-STORY!
That number is 1-877-RON-PAUL. That's 1-877-766-7285. I procured it the very day I first learned of Ron Paul back in May. We used it here in MI for awhile until the national campaign requested it in October. I released it to them and now it's being used by the official campaign in a number of ways. I just read a post where someone got a call from Mrs. Paul and at the end she said to call 1-877-RON-PAUL a number of times. That is cool.
Now, the foot soldiers need to incorporate this number in all forms of marketing. Doing a billboard? Use both RP's web address and the 1-877-RON-PAUL number. Add it to all your YOUTUBE projects. Print it on your fliers (and always include the numerical equivalent, 1-877-766-7285).
This is REALLY IMPORTANT! And here's why. First and foremost, it opens up a channel for the older, non-internet supporter to get to the Ron Paul campaign for info, to volunteer, and most importantly to give. And consider this. Many older folks who have a computer will NEVER put thier credit card number online. Being in communications, I know that a toll-free number is supporter-friendly, and it will get used! We just need to get it out there. To the media (it shows that Ron Paul is on top of it being one of the only candidates with their own toll-free number). Spread the word. Make it at least as big as the web address. Let's, as they say in the tabloid media, "take this off the internet and to the phones!".
Any questions? Call me on MY toll-free number. 1-877-777-9909.
