WinRed

Hello WinRed.

First, we want to thank you for all you are doing to help us take back the White House and a solid majority in both the House and the Senate.

We are writing with a concern that may not make sense to you because we are in surge mode and pushing hard for financial resources. However, we believe that WinRed has a genuine problem raising funds.

I no longer use WinRed because I can not afford to have my phone (text messages) and email bombed with fund-raising. We have friends that are far more wealthier than we are, and they have had the same problem and no longer give to the GOP through WinRed. A person may unsubscribe 50 times - it makes no difference. If you test STOP, you will get a STOP confirmation, which is another intrusion and annoyance, but it never stops.

I think STOP should STOP WinRed, not just that specific candidate.

There has got to be a better way to do this. Maybe send us a text 2 or even 3 times per week where we open to a page where we can see the candidates and a BRIEF description of their story and what they plan on doing for us, and then check a box to support that candidate with an amount. It should include a clear notice that WinRed will only send out urgent reminders a couple of times per week and not bomb their phone or email. There may be better ideas, but I believe the current method is killing us and costing us millions in financial resources.

The other day I heard President Trump address the people, and I really wanted to give right then, but I knew if I did, I would increase the bombing of my text messages and my email, so I did NOT give.

That was $100.00 lost. There was a time in the past when you could give directly to the Trump Campaign without going through WinRed. A lot of people did that because they did not want to be bombed by WinRed. Nowadays, WinRed is about the only way to give, so people JUST DON'T do it.

The other thing that hurts us is crying and begging for help.

For example, Jen Kiggans recently texted me this.

I guess that's all she wrote.

Maybe my hopes were just too high. I was counting on a huge response from my last text, but I've come up short.

We can't continue to conduct the campaign as usual if we aren't able to raise what we need to keep the lights on and pay our staff.

I'm Jen Kiggans. I'm not sure you've heard of me, but this text is a heartfelt & humble request for your help.

Why would anyone be motivated to give? Many people who read this will conclude that most are not supporting her.

She goes on to say that Joe Biden and the Dem Machine have 180 million lined up to crush her. If the Dems have 180 million in contributions and she can't even keep the lights on, that does not speak well of her candidacy. That tells the reader that she must be a horrible candidate. Jen is just one of many examples of horrible, negative PR from our candidates.

Who wants to give to a loser? We need to hear a brief description of who she is, what she stands for, and what she will do if elected. We need to hear a positive message of hope and a bright future - not all this stuff about the Dems out funding us, and we've come up short.

Finally, what Jen Kiggans and the many others crying the blues in their failed efforts as a candidate DON'T KNOW is this. There may have been people who wanted to give, even with their defeatist PR approach, but WILL NOT and CAN NOT because of WinRed.

If you give just ONE TIME through WinRed, you will learn very quickly NEVER to do that again as your phone and email become practically unusable because of the bombing.

So, I hope you will actually get this message to someone who can make a decision about future fundraising efforts and find a way to make this work. Many of us want to give but can not afford the fallout.

Thanks for all you do. President Trump has our Vote for sure.

I am still getting texts from WINRED - even though I have expressly said that they do not have authorization to text my phone number. So - Spam.

They lie and beg for money. This has been going on for 4 years. I am completely fed up! New tactic - let's flood the CEO - Ryan Lyk's social media and email - his email appears to be ryan@***.co, and he's on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanlyk/, and his twitter/X handle is @RyanLyk.

He appears to be super excited about a new Revv/WINRED program that helps them get even more $$ with a new "Upsell Pathway" - my guess is this will mean even more texts that they claim that they have nothing to do with.

Liars, beggars, thieves.

I have officially left the Republican party because of the WINRED disgusting practices of outright stealing from people and harassing people with unsolicited non-stop texts and emails. They are the lowest of the low.
