When you're running for local office for the first time, there are plenty of mistakes you can make. The good thing is that you're not the first person ever to face the challenges of running for office - even though sometimes it might seem like it. In this book, Craig W. Turner collects stories, advice, warnings and best practices from local candidates from around the country who have been there and done that. They've already seen what you're about to see, and they've generously shared their experiences for the benefit of you and other first-time candidates for local office. This is no poli-sci class. This is "in the trenches" life experience. Everyone interviewed for this book as part of The Campaign Coach Podcast, has run and won at least one election. Some are now retired, some have moved on to higher office, and some are still serving in the capacity we discussed in their interview. In these pages, you will find insights that no guidebook or online course can give you - they will inspire you, and scare you, and motivate you and smack you in the face with a reality check. But, they will also make you a stronger candidate. Whether it's talking with voters, fundraising, understanding local government policy, promoting your candidacy or even knowing how to best serve your community, learning from these people's experiences - and avoiding mistakes that they've already made for you - will give you a leg up on any opponent.
