=== Relational Tactics ===
While organizers may adapt them to fit their specific contexts, there are two main relational tactics available to an organizer: 1:1 meetings and house meetings.

In 1:1 meetings, the focus for the organizer is on building a relationship with one person. In house meetings, the goal is to build relationships between the organizer and a large group of people, and to establish or strengthen relationships between other attendees at the house meeting.

Both of these tactics end in a specific commitment, whether to have another meeting, to volunteer for the campaign, or take on a specific role on a team. A hard ask, which we explain next, helps provide a framework for creating commitment.

We’ll go into more depth on these tactics below.
