Call Time Mindset Makeover

(Call time doesn’t have to feel soul-sucking.)

 

In our initial coaching sessions with new clients - bold, progressive women running for office - we always hear the same thing:

They all hate call time.

 
 

Maybe you can relate. Sound familiar?

  • You dread call time, even though you know that fundraising is essential.

  • You’re running to get money out of politics, and it feels so gross that you have to fundraise at all.

  • You feel guilty asking people for money, especially during such an uncertain time.

  • Call time feels soul-sucking, and your fundraising goals give you a stomachache.

  • You "hate dealing with money" and would rather spend your precious time before Election Day talking to voters.

And as a result…

  • You feel a pit in your stomach when you see call time on the calendar.

  • Hitting your fundraising goals feels like pulling teeth.

  • You feel awkward putting donors on the spot when you make the ask.

  • You want to hide under the covers every time a potential donor says no.

  • You're finding creative ways to avoid call time, like starting late or rescheduling...

  • …and then you beat yourself up for starting late or rescheduling!

What if we told you that call time could transform into part of campaigning that you actually enjoy and look forward to?
