Model Plan
A Template for Relevancy
🧭
"Our party not only failed to eliminate the super majority but in fact watched Republicans pad that majority. I believe that when you get hit, you should hit back twice as hard. At this point, my philosophy should be clear on more than one level. The optics of hitting back may not be the most pleasant, but someone, somewhere in this party must summon the courage to do more, risk more, and fight harder than we have. We must stand our ground rather than weakly wagging our fingers and declaring, ‘shame on you.’ ”
-Kansas Democratic House Representative Ford Carr, 2-13-2025
In this section, we pull from the strategies section and put them to work in a basic model plan.
An innovative feature in the advanced plan is the thought that the website for the County Committee can do multiple things. It can be a politically focused information portal for the entire County, as well as being an information hub for the Democrat Central Committee. It can even act as a funding source through a subscription model.
NOTE: These are basic templates for your Committee to use. Basically just outlines to get you started. Feel free to change and enhance them to fit your individual needs. Make them your own.
For larger or more established County Parties, with more resources.
Don't have time for a marketing model? How about a very basic TLDR version instead?
