Take the Most Important Things to Heart
It’s all about the voter
The Voter Concierge is all about helping the voter, supporting what they care about and helping them vote their values. Concierges don’t share their own opinions or try to convince voters to vote in any kind of way.
Ease is our middle name
Not really, but ease is really important to us. We’re making voting easy for voters. We’re also making helping voters easy for Concierges. Every step of the way we provide templates, tools, and all the things we can think of to make this as efficient and effective as possible.
We also trust that you know the best way to reach out to your communities, and so you can customize to your heart’s content!
Concierges activate their own communities
Unlike phonebanking, textbanking, or canvassing — where you get a list of strangers (and a lot of hang-ups, rude texts, and doors slammed in your face), this is about you reaching out to your communities and offering help.
(Don’t worry — we have templates, graphics, and text for all that, too.)
Concierges have exponential reach
Voters reach out for help through our online form, and Concierges make each voter a personal voting guide that has all the answers. Concierges then share the guide in the method the voter asks for when they sign up (this can be video call, recorded video, recorded voice note, email, or text — or if you and your friend want to meet in person, we love that!).
Concierges also encourage voters to share what they’ve learned with others in their communities — and in past runs of the Concierge, on average voters shared with 10 other people. That means your impact is 1:11. Huge!
This is based in extensive experience and legit science
We ran a pilot version of this program back in 2022 and it went like gangbusters. At the heart of its success is its basis in relational organizing and behavioral science, plus its reliance on endorsements as, essentially, decoder rings for ballots.
Together we are dazzling
The Concierge Corps has optional weekly hangouts online on Wednesdays from 7:30-8:30pm ET. These gatherings are called Dazzles. At Dazzles, Concierges can:
- prepare their voters’ personal guides,
- get help from other Concierges, and
- track our immense collective reach (and win prizes!).
Of course you can also prepare your voters’ guides on your own, and reach out to get help at any time. Dazzles are just the extra-fun way to do those things.
Wondering why they’re called Dazzles? Because Concierges are nonpartisan. We’re not about promoting any candidate or side — we’re not pro-elephant or pro-donkey. Instead, we’re neutral, like zebras. And a group of zebras is called a dazzle (for real!).
