Friends,<\/p>\n
There are fewer than 82 days until Super Tuesday, and I haven\u2019t even started my Christmas shopping yet! My guess is I\u2019m not alone, and you too are concerned about how campaigns will use December to build meaningful and lasting infrastructure, strategic and realistic campaign plans as well as all the other commitments that come with the holidays.<\/p>\n
The daunting task of starting a campaign from scratch can be overwhelming. (So can delivering presents to good children around the world in one night, so let\u2019s put it in perspective.) And if you just filed you might not be thinking of all the small tasks that need to be completed. Without an extra set of hands to take some of the load, you might act like me with holiday shopping: avoiding it.<\/p>\n
That really isn\u2019t the answer.<\/p>\n
I describe campaigns as a combination of a schedule and a budget. Both items reflect the priorities laid out in the campaign and media plans, with the limited time to get it all done before Election Day. This way of thinking forces a campaign to take advantage of the calendar, treating the imminent holiday check-out as a time to complete other tasks.<\/p>\n
Here is how we would advise a candidate heading into the lull.<\/p>\n
We will be resting too, enjoying a cookie or three, and perhaps glancing at a paid media budget.<\/p>\n
Warmly,
\nMichael<\/p>\n
