4. Strict Rules and Pressure!!! Quota (140/day for STC) Under Quota pay: A canvasser who does not meet the quota in a week will not receive base pay, and will instead be paid minimum wage per hour for that week. If a canvasser fails to raise quota (which triggers base pay rather than under quota pay), they must still meet a minimum fundraising standard, which varies depending on location; failure to do so is grounds for termination.

5. Fundraising Strategies Be warm and friendly !!! Use the standard canvassing presentation Leave every interaction on a positive note (have fun, keep your composure, keep your heads up) Use your time well (hustle when you need) Target interested people, not indifferent ones (don’t waste your time on convincing a bullhead) Use magic numbers Target, target, retarget! Repeating is the key!
