Why a campaign?
to show political constituency and power (voters, consumers)
Don't campaign without lobbying, don't lobby without campaigning
Only lobby where is the constituency for it

Make Trade Fair!● For Oxfam’s Make Trade Fair campaign, the big four
coffee giants were targeted
● They were asked afterwards if the campaign had an impact
● Kraft response: “No – they were not our customers and we only listen to our customers”
● Oxfam didn’t show Kraft they were their customers so Kraft ignored them. Suggests weak power analysis was done/used.

you have.

E-Campaigning 1
Use the internet but don't believe the hype!
The internet is not the most important, people still get their informations from TV.
But it can be used to show your own information and especially for petitions to parliamentarians, protest letters to companies can be realised easily, and easy to use.

E-Campaigning 2Use the social media but don’t believe the
hype!• Email is your key tool for ecampaigning
• Social networks/media are far less effective than email
• Obama Campaign: relied on email. Social media return vs. email low (1-9%)
• Email:
– Predictable e-action results if well managed
– Reliable way to get more people to your web site
– Worldwide standard: works everywhere, for anyone

BREAK THE RULES!
that you just heard
Every campaign that breaks with these rules is sometimes more effective. In reality the majority of
campaigns break with the rules of campaigning.
