Is Intentional Insights doing anything to promote the use of RCTs in EA messaging? There may be a lot of value to be gained in conducting message testing experiments to determine which messages are most effective at getting potentual EAs to perform certain actions. Heterogeneous Effects models might also be useful in identifying who to target.
You might want to also try using google consumer surveys. If you restrict it to a single question (you can put the message in the question), they’re incredibly cheap.

Good question about RCTs! We’re actually gathering funding to conduct a study on various forms of messaging using Mechanical Turk.

Thanks for the tip! We haven’t looked into these, we’ll have to check them out.
