Getting the American people on board for campaigns matters, and ForbesUnder30-founded canvassing app Polis has raised $2.5 million to do just that
“We're continuing to work with the biggest and best political candidates,” says CEO and founder Tucker.
Looking to the future, Tucker’s team of 19 has a formidable goal in mind: facilitating conversations with every American household by the close of next year. “Our goal is to knock on every door in America by the end of 2020,” says the founder, whichreports was about 127 million households as of 2018. They don't plan to reach the ambitious target only by way of political outreach, though.
As of now, Tucker emphasizes how the consumer industries they work with include energy, telecommunications and home security, but that they’d like to make their data-powered door-to-door services something that every commercial enterprise can tap into. “I do see a path to becoming a billion-dollar business and that will be working with every group and industry that goes door-to-door,” she says.
