A good GTVO is made up of
Perspiration, 😅
Inspiration, 💪🔥
and
Administration! 📑✔️

Not that kind of admin....

Get your ducks in a row 🦆🦆🦆🦆
Sort out your membership list.
Ballots need to go to home addresses

Fire up your members 🔥🔥🔥
Inform them of the issues
Keep them up to date with negotiations
Prepare them to VOTE

Once your ballot is open, you have 2 groups of voters:
Group 1:
Have voted & let you know ✔️
Group 2:
Those who need to be persuaded to move into Group 1 ⤴️
Keep track of Group 1 focus your campaign on Group 2

Ask members *if* they voted not *how* they voted

our flowchart👇

Missing ballots can be up to 10% of members.

Make it easy for members to request a new ballot.

Has requested a ballot = will vote✔️💪

Requires person with access to member lists to administer.

Update ballot requests daily.
Well done UCUS & Civica for fast turn around ⚡

Inspiring members
We held a rally with help of @UCUScotland , local politicians and UCU VP @zenscara It was MOVING 😭 💪🔥
We had a video


And we have a Branch VP who is a dab hand at a motivating email

Finally, keep reminding people. Most will vote but are busy.

We calculate that about 25% our members vote every time without prompting 💪💪 (this increases every time you GTVO) , about 25% will not vote regardless

The rest are willing if you put the work in! 😅📧🗣️☎️📱🙏

See our GTVO thread ☝️
We are also available for branch meetings, weddings, kids parties the usual....
