Here at Hustle we know that for campaigns and organizations one of the things that you can never get enough of is time. You’ve got a deadline — whether it be election day or a vote on the hill — that is quickly approaching and you need to get your texts out ASAP. This week we’re proud to announce that we’ve rolled out a major release and two key updates that will help your productivity even more with Hustle.

Hustle has partnered with NGP VAN to launch a new VAN My List integration

What does this partnership mean for Hustle? Check out our press announcement and integration page for details. Hustle clients using a VAN CRM platform (like Votebuilder, EveryAction, LAN, and more) can now set up a more seamless integration between Hustle + My List. With this new integration, organizational admin’s will no longer have to manually export data out of their VAN database and import it into Hustle. Instead, the new integration allows you to segment your universe with My List and send the data directly to a Hustle Group!

Before this week, Hustle clients could set up an integration to sync data back to their My Campaign-based committees in VAN. Now clients can send a list of contacts to Hustle groups with just a click of a button and we also support a sync back to My Voters-based committees. If you already have an integration set up for your VAN Committee this new feature will already be activated for you.

If you need any help setting up your VAN Integration(s) in Hustle please check out our help article here! Once your VAN integration is set up properly sending lists over from VAN to Hustle will be a breeze!

This release is big and we hope that the impact it has on your work is even bigger.

This new integration is the result of a close partnership between Hustle + NGP VAN working together to enable organizations to reach their supporters efficiently, one text at a time. We are proud to be working together with NGP VAN to build the future of the Democratic Party’s data and communication infrastructure, but even more excited to see our clients, like you, use it! Ultimately, this partnership means less staff admin time so that you can spend more of your time working toward your mission.

But wait, there’s more! Increased Group Limits to 100K

With Hustle, you can now put up to 100,000 contacts in a group! Hustle has helped launch over 60 million conversations through text, so we know a thing or two about reaching large audiences. :) If you are an organization texting a large audience you’ll be able to upload 100,000 contacts to a single group and maintain relationships via text with them, get them to the polls, or even to your next big event.

So what are you waiting for?
