Union Calling has been proudly serving Canada since 2004. We are an energetic Canadian company dedicated to helping leaders effectively connect with their audience. We are a small but mighty team working out of the Greater Toronto Area and Ottawa. We only work for progressive and non-profit organizations.
The idea for Union Calling was inspired by a participant comment during a focus group. When asked her opinion about local leadership ability, she replied: “I don’t really know. I don’t even know what he sounds like. I’ve never heard him speak.”
She’s no exception. Many people have never (or seldom) heard the sound of a local leader’s voice. Union Calling dramatically changes that fact in minutes. In the process, a new and deeper connection between the audience and leadership is forged. Confidence is enhanced. Cooperation is given a sharper focus. Inevitably, stronger bonds are forged and more good things happen.
We began by broadcasting messages from leaders to members. It wasn’t long before one client asked: “Can we use this technology to conduct opinion surveys?” So we turned Union Calling into a two-way communications tool. This was enhanced further with the introduction of our virtual town hall service, followed by the introduction of our peer-to-peer messaging services.
Union Calling is ultimately about building stronger connections at the grassroots level, which means fairer treatment, safer spaces, and more equitable and democratic societies. We’re doing our part to help advance these goals, one call or one message at a time.
