End of Year Campaign Script

Reached a Live Person

(Ask for the person by name.)

Hello, my name is [your name] and I am a volunteer for the Green Party of Ontario.  I am calling to follow up on a letter that was mailed to you recently.  May I have a few minutes of your time to chat?

If no, apologize for the inconvenience. Schedule another day for a follow up, if supporter is willing.  Enter the information in the notes field. End the call.

As you likely know, it has been a busy but exciting year for the GPO.  We just elected a new leader, had a policy convention, and ran two strong by-elections this year with another on the way.  Even with all of this activity, we are debt free and have started a campaign fund for the 2011 provincial election. We could not have done this without everyone pitching in, and I want to thank you for your past financial support.

Our new leader, Mike Schreiner, is committed to being a full time leader and is preparing an ambitious and focused plan to ensure that the Green party voice is heard at Queen’s Park.  Included in this plan is the goal of raising a $1 million dollars.  With everyone’s support, the 2011 election will be our most significant to date!

Can we count on your financial support to help reach our goal of raising $1 million dollars?

If no, thank them for their time.  Offer them a pleasant evening.  End the call.

If yes, thank them, and ask if they wish to donate right now using their credit card.

If yes, use the secure GPO credit card form link. Enter the information from the transaction in the appropriate fields.

If no, ask if they have the return envelope and coupon enclosed with the letter.  Find out the amount pledged and fill in the appropriate fields.

(If the conversation has gone well, ask if they are willing to volunteer for the GPO.  Fill the information in the notes field.)

Thank them again for their support.  Offer them a pleasant evening.  End the call.
