What Happens When Residents Can't Get Through? The Real Cost of Delayed Service

📅 Date: Thursday, August 27th
⏰ Time: 2PM ET / 1PM CT
📍 Location: Virtual

A resident calls about a permit, a pothole, a late water bill. If nobody picks up, or the answer takes three departments and two weeks to find, that resident doesn't blame the process. They blame the government.

Delayed service has a cost, and it's rarely the one leadership is tracking. It shows up in call volume nobody has time for, in staff who feel like they're always behind, and in resident trust that erodes quietly, one unanswered call at a time.

In this session, we'll walk through:

  • What "delayed service" actually costs a local government, beyond just staff hours
  • The moments residents notice most, and why those moments stick
  • What closing the gap looks like in practice, without needing a bigger team
  • A few real examples of what changed when response time did

This isn't about scaring anyone into action. It's about naming a cost that's easy to overlook and making the fix feel doable.

Join us for a grounded look at what's really at stake when residents can't get through, and what it takes to change that.

From Content Creator to Insight Owner: Using Constituent Data to Tell Your Government's Story

Every PIO knows the work their agency did this year mattered, they just don't always have the numbers to prove it. This session shows how constituent data, like resident questions, service requests, and resolution times, becomes the backbone of stronger communications: press releases, council presentations, and resident-facing recaps. We reached out to real PIOs before this webinar to find out what they wanted to know, and we'll answer those questions live.
