Running for office doesn’t need to drain your bank account. In fact, in today’s digital-first world, smart candidates are choosing online platforms like iVoteMyVote.com (ivmv) over expensive ads, flyers, and yard signs.
Whether you’re running for local office or the presidency, ivmv helps you connect with voters directly, clearly, and affordably.
💸 The Old Way: Expensive, Outdated, and Inefficient
Many campaigns still rely on traditional marketing strategies like:
-
Television commercials that cost tens of thousands for a few seconds of airtime
-
Radio spots that reach broad audiences but few actual voters
-
Newspaper ads that disappear after one day
-
Printed flyers and mailers that most people throw away
-
Yard signs that clutter neighborhoods and cost $5–$10 each
All of these tools are expensive—and most don’t give voters the full story about who you are, what you believe, or why they should support you.
