How I Raised $2 Million for Politicians & How it Can Help the WordPress Community @lindseymillerWP
@lindseymillerWP Raising money for a governor’s race is different than you think.
@lindseymillerWP He was an Attorney General running for Governor.
@lindseymillerWP And he WAS NOT the most important person in the room.
@lindseymillerWP You can’t find me in the photos. I was at the sign-in table…
@lindseymillerWP The world is full of no-names.
@lindseymillerWP No one knows Lindsey Miller.
@lindseymillerWP But I had real power.
@lindseymillerWP Just like Janice.
@lindseymillerWP Let’s pretend for a minute…
@lindseymillerWP • Cultivate genuine interest • Ask questions & listen • Create connections • Make your case DON’T GET PAST GATE KEEPERS, ENGAGE THEM!
@lindseymillerWP I’m going to tell you a secret…
@lindseymillerWP The mistake we make is looking at things the wrong way.
@lindseymillerWP The world is full of no-names.
@lindseymillerWP Where is your focus?
@lindseymillerWP Influence & Impact
One major caveat…
Lindsey Miller @lindseymillerWP Partner Manager, Managed WordPress Liquid Web
