How to Make Cold Calls for an Election Candidate
How to Make Cold Calls for an Election Candidate.
If talking to complete strangers on the phone
causes a near panic attack, this guide will
make the process easier and bolster your confidence.
You will need Phone script Knowledge of the
candidate and practice. Step 1. Read the person's
name aloud before you dial the number. If
you can't pronounce the name correctly ask
for help or just skip saying it altogether.
Step 2. Develop a script to guide you or write
down a few notes if you easily get flustered
or have a hard time thinking on the spot.
Step 3. Be conversational. Not every call
has to go exactly the same way. Just go with
the flow and talk to them like a friend or
family member. Don't take hangups or rude
comments personally. It happens to everyone.
Step 4. Know what your candidate stands for.
Be able to promote policies, answer questions,
or dispel any rumors that are untrue. Step
5. Practice as much as possible by striking
up conversations with strangers at the store,
in line at the coffee shop, or with telemarketers
who call. Step 6. Take a deep breath, gather
yourself, and speak from the heart. Each number
will be an adventure. Just believe in what
you're doing and who you're supporting. Did
you know Nearly 2 billion people, a third
of the world's population, have never made
a telephone call.

161 VL Christian and Oliver - (2011-12-16)
Okay, I don't want to see you here any longer.
You realize that we're neighbors, don't you?
I said I don't want to see you 'here' any longer.
You were very lucky. Your heart won't
be able to cope with another attack.
I know. And I know that I have to
take it easy. No sports and no exertion.
Well...not exactly. Mild cardio
training is allowed. Meaning...
No pulse rate higher than 130. Wow. I actually
remember some stuff from studying sports.
Daniel, what about riding?
No. Horses can balk and bolt.
That leads to a higher stress level.
This is a list of all the types of sports you can do.
Now don't start again with aqua jogging and...
...I don't know...yoga or, worst case, Nordic walking.
Tai-Chi is on the list as well.
That's kind of a combat sport.
But I can see you don't need that,
given the deadly look in your eyes.
Well, regarding your diet...
Looks like I still have to work on my deadly look.
Yeah, true. So...little cholesterol.
And apart from that, moderate but tasty.
Check your blood pressure twice a day. And,
very important, take your medicine regularly.
I'll make sure of that.
- Hi.
Hey.
Well, then...thanks for everything.
My pleasure. Bye.
- Bye.
As if I'd let you carry something
as heavy as that right now. Here.
Coming?
Yes, Ms. head nurse.
Oh yeah...um...should you decide in favor of
Nordic walking, you can go without the sticks.
Thank you.
Do you have the key for me?
Oh, I thought...
Never mind. The key should be in the bag.
Oh, you thought that...
Sure, now that we're together again.
No. Olli, I didn't mean to put pressure on you.
I mean, we can take this easy.
That would probably be better anyway.
I can't imagine anything better
than living together with you again.
I just didn't want to push you. I...
I thought that maybe the chaos at the
flatshare would be too much for you.
And if I said something, then
maybe you'd think that I think...
We're doing it again. - What?
You're racking my brains and I'm racking yours.
But neither of us says what he really wants.
Starting today, we'll be upfront and tell each other
honestly what we want and what we don't want, okay?
Deal. Big fist?
Do you know what I really want right now?
- Hm?
Enough is enough!
Can somebody tell me why the light in the hall
switches off after just 30 seconds?!
Hello, you two.
Well, you're so bashfully standing in the hall.
That's not like you guys.
Christian, welcome home.
- Thank you.
Really, Olli, you're overdoing your
obsession about conserving energy.
I, as a tenant, expect to have
a hallway with proper lighting.
I'll tell Mr. Fritzsche to increase
the interval immediately.
Yes, please do that.
What's the matter?
Aren't you guys coming inside?
Um...Christian and I,
we're moving back in together again.
But Christian, you can't do that to me.
I'm sorry.
Of course, losing you as a roommate is awful,
but I'm so happy you two are back together again!
I can help you with the moving later on.
Please do.
Yes, but that's not for free.
The flowers go into my apartment, and
Olli will carry you over the threshold now.
Olli will carry you over the threshold.
No.
NO!
Why did you let Olli talk you into such nonsense?
Come on, calm down.
The timer is back to three minutes.
During that time, even you will find
your keys in your little designer bag.
What's that supposed to mean?
Oh, hey!
Hey, it's great that you're back, mate.
You know, you have to take it a bit more slowly now.
Oh, Andi, I'm still allowed to move at a speed
that most motion detectors react to.
Yeah, how about, for example, Nordic...
- Ha!
Don't you dare say the bad word.
Yeah, okay. There are other great things
that aren't very strenuous.
Like miniature golf, fishing, pedal boat...
- Andi.
I'm off.
I don't want to sound like Fritzsche, but...
we really have to decide on your sports activities.
Something between weight lifting and...
- Chess, or what?!
Yes.
So...
I'll take this one.
Guys, is this a conspiracy?!
Christian.
Yeah, go on; move my things for me.
I'll go and buy that weird
blood pressure monitor thingy.
Oh, Arno has one. He never uses it.
It's back there in the dresser, second drawer. Yeah?
Now I need to hug my favorite ex-lodger again.
Oh, that's some show.
You'll see each other again this evening.
You're just going to Schneiders,
not on a trip around the world.
And you're living across the hall.
I'm just so glad that Christian's doing better again.
Yeah, then let's see if my blood pressure
confirms your impression. - Yeah, do that.
Hey. Cheers. - Hey.
Well, you two; settle back in.
We'll leave you alone.
Thank you. - And thanks for the beer.
- You're very welcome.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh!
But you can take your medicine.
Here. And you should always carry the box with
you. At least, that's what this brochure says.
90 over 60. Is that good?
Low. I think low is good.
Olli, things will be like this for a while.
Yeah, I sure hope so. I've already made plans
with you for the next 60 to 90 years.
And in order for that to actually happen,
we really have to think about what kind
of sports you're going to do from now on.
So, should we go biking, or shall we do Nordic...
- Ha!
You will not say the bad words.
I don't need sticks for walking.
Even if you'd be in a wheelchair, I'd so not care.
As long as we're together.
That'll be the day; you wheeling me around.
Your medicine.
Olli, I'm not demented.
Not yet.
Yeah, and how about renting a hot air balloon again?
Yeah, sure, so you can have another panic attack.
This says that you shouldn't get yourself
into situations where no doctor's around.
Okay, so we won't go out in the sticks. Then
let's have a huge party with a lot of people.
And especially with Daniel.
Then we'll have a doc on board.
Oh! What's going on here?
Christian has been released.
He's living with us again now.
No, thanks.
It's great that you're back.
But that doesn't mean that I have to vacate
the room because it used to be his, does it?
Relax. For now, my room will do
for our second honeymoon.
After that, it might get a bit cramped, but...
Maybe we can get rid of Daniel till then.
The doctor thinks so highly of himself.
Let him.
I thought Jessica and Daniel got along quite well?
Until yesterday, they did. No idea what happened.
Now back to our party.
Do you really want to make a big thing of it?
Yeah. Do you want to keep it low-key?
Oh yeah. So long as we're being reasonable.
I simply think a small party is more romantic.
And talking about applying reason...um...
I can think of some very unreasonable
things I'd like to do with you.
Oh yeah?
Don't you think that's too strenuous?
I've missed you.
I've missed you even more.
Hey. Don't stop!
What's wrong?
No idea. I...
I think it's my heart.
And?
Everything's okay.
Man, I don't know why I got into such a panic.
Hey, you've just had a coronary.
Of course you'd be scared that something
like that might happen again.
As long as it's all good again now.
Good?!
What if every time we...
- Maybe it was just a bit too soon for...that.
It's just typical. There's nothing in these check lists
about the really important things...
but a whole page about Nordic walking.
Hello? I said the bad words.
Maybe soon there won't be
anything else left anymore.
That's really a great tactic,
simply assuming the worst.
Christian, we'll take it very easy.
And if you want to save yourself for marriage, then
this super cheesy romantic stuff is okay for me too.
Anticipation is the greatest joy.
- Or the only one.
Oh, nonsense! - Yeah, what?!
Olli, I'm not even 30, and I'm
leading the life of an old man!
I can't do my job properly!
No sports! No spontaneity!
And if we're out of luck, soon no sex anymore!
Christian, calm down! You're totally exaggerating!
And even if, it wouldn't matter to me
because I love you. - Yeah, right.
A platonic marriage to a wreck;
that's always been your dream, huh?!
Olli, you wouldn't want to do that to yourself,
and I certainly won't do it to you.
Now wait!
Have you lost it? I was worried.
That's the way it is when you're with an invalid.
How much longer do you want to bathe in self-pity?
The water will eventually get cold.
Christian, you will not do this to me.
Pushing me away and making me
watch you giving up on yourself.
I can live with you having a heart condition, but
not with you being heartless. I actually love you.
You wouldn't put up with this behavior either
if it was me being sick.
Man, Christian, we can do it together!
That's easier said than done, Olli!
- No, it's not easy!
I know your disease is serious and
you have to do without a lot of things.
But not without the most important thing.
That's obviously me.
It's a good thing you're not conceited.
Me? Not at all.
Okay, maybe a tiny little bit;
but maybe you can overlook that.
Pretty please, keep me.
I don't want to go back to the shelter.
Excuse me, is this spot free?
Uh...yes. No problem.
We were just about to leave anyway...
...and do Nordic walking.
If you're into that.
Those sticks are way too silly for my liking.
