Talent PoolCampaign started
too late
Lack of campaign focus and message
No integrated approach
No dedicated volunteer base
![Page 29: Telling My Story: Social Media and Union Politics](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061307/5451ad21af795911068b6314/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Not enough helpLack of talent pool to
disseminate information to thought leaders and influencers
No campaign volunteers to help build community for on Twitter, Facebook of Youtube channel
