A Message From The CEO

Dear Political Professional,   What an amazing election season this is proving to be.  In our 25 years in the business of politics, I cannot recall a campaign with as many twists and turns.  At Aristotle, we can attest to the unprecedented and innovative ways our customers have found to adapt Aristotle's data-driven solutions to raise unprecedented sums of money, organize and communicate with voters.   If you are already one of Aristotle's trailblazing clients, and especially if you are new to us, you may not know everything Aristotle can do for you.  Perhaps you are just looking for ideas.  Either way, I urge you to take advantage and pick our brains:

• Check our Featured Articles for important tips and advice on reaching your goals.
  
• Join us for one of our events and trainings we hold throughout the nation, including our upcoming open house in Washington, DC. 
  
• And finally, feel free to contact an Aristotle representative at (800) 296-2747 or sales@aristotle.com for information on how Aristotle can help you reach your goals in 2008.

  Now You Know,
         

 John Aristotle Phillips
 Chief Executive Officer

New Service: Voter Data Enhanced Emails

By Kristi Grant - Director of Account Management, Aristotle 

Most databases begin as a simple contacts list and grow to include communication tracking, event participation and giving history. All should include written guidelines for anyone entering or manipulating data.   But what if your organization or campaign doesn't have established rules for using the data? Or if you are inheriting someone else's failed logic? Follow these simple steps to ensure you're not continuing the "trash in - trash out" cycle... Click here to read "Trash In - Trash Out" by Aristotle's Kristi Grant...

New Service: Voter Data-Enhanced Emails

Aristotle is proud to announce our new Voter Data-Enhanced Email service - available now.  Offered to political campaigns who wish to target their mass email communications based on verifiable voter data information and voting history, this service allows campaigns to reach a large swath of voters who have opted-in for political communications throughout the election season.
