Basically, you need people who will give a lot of time, talent, and treasure to your cause, and you find them by inviting them in with low-effort activities. The people who are really excited about your petition are people who are good candidates to help circulate that petition. (just be sure to identify easy-to-do first steps and make sure you follow through). [...] [...] Remember the “ladder of engagement“: This old-school concept applies as well in the Internet-age.

One of the big challenges with follow-up is that it is a long-term investment in a relationship, it often doesn't have immediate payback. For myself, I know that if there are things demanding my attention right now, it's hard to make the time for follow-up.
