21 Hustle Testimonials

"We are loving Hustle so far! We used it to promote our Walk Launch Party (a combination of a volunteer kickoff and past team registration event), and it worked really well! I’m very excited to continue using Hustle as a constituent engagement tool."

"We are able to reach people that we normally don’t talk to in the field. They are on their phones. We still can’t reach everyone, but we can reach a greater amount now. I think Hustle is a straightforward admin portal, and I like that I can easily set up campaigns and know who sent what when."

"It was really great to be able to connect with the donor base and have those positive, tiny conversations. We talk a lot about heavy things, so lighter conversations were a nice change of pace. The Hustle even resulted in a major gift from a new donor through the conversation we had. That never wold have happened with an email."

“Compromise is often necessary [in politics], but entire marginalized identities are not expendable chess pieces.”

“We chose Hustle because the platform was user-friendly. It was an essential tool that helped us leverage sophisticated targeting across our organizing program, which helped us win 90% of the vote in our primary, and ultimately led to Sarah winning her seat in Delaware’s state senate.”

“All state parties should use Hustle. Hustle has allowed us to maximize our most valuable resource: time. We have engagements with more constituents more often more quickly."

“Voting rights are constitutional rights.”

“The guests are thankful to know that there’s a real person behind our event invitations and are always flattered that we care enough to send them text reminders—yes, we want you there!”

"We knew we wanted to have people hear from us and ask how they were doing. We segmented our list of alums and donors in 'hard-hit areas' and texted our supporters in New York, New Jersey, Washington, etc., just to see how they were holding up and let them know we were thinking about them. We also reached out to our nursing and health care alumni to check-in. And the response blew us away. People couldn't believe how thoughtful we were to reach out by texting, and it was a great touchpoint before we started soliciting for unrestricted or emergency support in Spring 2020."

“Let’s reunite and rebuild.”

"By allowing our team to efficiently scale outreach while continuing to provide personalized support, peer-to peer texting has helped us connect more New Yorkers to services: enrolling more people in the healthcare plan that meets their needs, successfully navigating complicated housing issues for more tenants, and increasing democratic participation in communities with historically low voter registration and turnout rates."

“Hustle worked really well in promoting our Walk Launch Party (a volunteer kickoff and past team registration event). I'm very excited to continue using it as a constituent engagement tool.”

"Being able to have one-on-one conversations with donors and answer their questions so quickly is incredibly valuable. I’m able to listen to their concerns and respond empathetically."

"Hustle allowed us to connect with alumni in a way that we couldn’t previously. In particular, we know young alumni do not want to answer the phone, but a text is something they will automatically reply to."

“I think it could work well for our upcoming reunion when our alums come back and celebrate their different milestones, we know alumnae want to give, they just need the reminder, and I think Hustle will be an effective way to correspond with them.”
