Increased the Number of Sign-Ups for Voter Platform
Llama Lead Gen got over 275 new users to sign up and a 1.36% CTR on our social media ads.
OneV is a nonprofit organization that strived to increase voter turnout at election time. During the November 2020 presidential elections, they needed a campaign to encourage US citizens to get out and vote. They wanted to do this through effective social media ads to increase the number of voters in the election.
The organization also has a tool aimed at connecting and informing users about upcoming elections. As part of their lead generation efforts, OneV asked Llama Lead Gen to increase the number of users on their platform.
We designed and built ad campaigns for OneV on Facebook, Instagram, and Reddit to increase engagement and generate sign ups. The campaigns also aimed to inform voters about the process and opportunity of mail-in ballots. This was particularly topical as the pandemic and lockdowns lead many states to implement mail-in voting procedures.

About the client
One Nation Every Vote (OneV) is a nonpartisan organization that aims to educate and increase voter turnout. Founded in 2018, they focus on civic engagement to preserve democracy in the United States. Some of the ways they have sought to engage the public include a History of Voting podcast during the midterm elections in 2018. They also use their website and social media channels to share facts and stories about the importance of voting, including elections that have razor-thin margins.
OneV uses TurboVote, a tool that sends text and email reminders to users about critical election information, including dates and deadlines. They’ve also promoted vote-by-mail policies to various levels of government, including State Senates, State House reps, and governors across the county. It was a particular concern during the November 2020 elections, held during the middle of a pandemic.
