Use targeted content that directly relates to how your new activists joined your file. Update new activists on what is happening or has happened as a result of their action, then ask them to take the next step to help on that issue or on your next campaign. Take another action? Care about why they are with you. Avoid the wonk.

The first thing I suggest is to be genuine -- interview people who are affected by the work your organization does, record actions you are taking to solve problems in your community, ask YouTube users to sound off on why your issues are important. We use a file size measurement -- video files must be under 300 MB.

We’re getting in the action a bit early. So send in your questions and comments along the way. So it wouldn’t help you, but I encourage you to look at your file, look at your appeals that have worked, what didn’t work, and don’t be afraid to recycle a really good subject line if it did work for you.
