There must be. I know there are text-banking opportunities. That's what all those annoying text messages from strange numbers you immediately delete are. I worry that phone-banking will work less well as we're trained ourselves against strange phone calls. But we should do every method possible!

I’ve done text- and phone-banking, and I find the phone campaigns to be extremely low yield. Actually reaching a person is vanishly rare, so most of the time you feel like you’re just cleaning up a list. Texting has a lot of opt outs & wrong numbers, but it goes faster and has a ~10% response rate.

I signed up to write postcards but I am well aware that my penmanship is execrable, so it's going to be slow going.
