Since launching in 2023, GoodParty.org’s campaign tools have become more effective than ever at helping candidates run for office. Over 3,400 Independents empowered by GoodParty.org have already won their elections, and more are running and winning throughout 2025.

In this guide, we’ll outline the best ways to use GoodParty.org’s tools in 2025 — from launching your campaign to sending texts to voters before election day.

10 Ways to Level Up Your Campaign Strategy in 2025

Keep reading to learn how GoodParty.org’s campaign tools can empower Independent campaigns at any stage of their journey:

#1: Launch Your Campaign with Confidence

Candidates across the United States have relied on GoodParty.org’s tools and support to get their campaigns off the ground.

Here are a few of the tools available for new candidates:

  • Templates for making your campaign announcement via email, on social media, and in person

  • Free training and courses to help you understand the essentials of a strong campaign launch

  • One-on-one consultations with political campaign experts

Marq Hawkins is one local candidate who began drawing on GoodParty.org’s support during the planning stage of his campaign.

“Those early conversations helped me to look at things in a way that I said, ‘Oh, okay, I can do this,’” Hawkins said.

Hawkins went on to win his election for mayor of California City, California — unseating the incumbent mayor and providing new representation for his community.

#2: Stay on Track with the Campaign Dashboard

When you make your account, GoodParty.org automatically begins generating an eight-week campaign plan tailored to your election date and details. You’ll be able to see your win number (the number of votes you need to win your election), as well as the target number of contacts you’ll need to make with voters.

During each week leading up to election day, your campaign dashboard will display the most crucial tasks to add to your to-do list. These tasks give you the clarity and structure you’d get from a traditional campaign manager, without the cost.

#3: Reach Voters Directly with SMS Messaging

Schedule SMS campaigns directly from your campaign dashboard and reach voters at just the right time. Just submit a request with your desired message, imagery, and target audience, and our team will handle the execution.

Winning candidates have used text messaging to reach voters in many ways, including:

  • Reminding supporters to get to the polls on election day

  • Inviting voters to campaign events or meet-ups

  • Combatting attack ads put out by opponents

Adam Khosroabadi used SMS texting to help win his race for city council in Milwaukie, Oregon.

“Without you guys texting, I don't know if I would have won this race,” Khosroabadi said.

The AI-powered content builder includes dozens of campaign templates, designed to save you time as you build your campaign website, send voter outreach, and prepare for events.
