    Hi all, let's begin our next edition of the Tip of the Week discussion! Once you have set up your survey account, you're ready to create your first new survey. Follow the steps below to do just that.   

    Tips for Building Out Your First Survey 

    Create the framework for your survey 

    Start by completing the Survey Creation Wizard, where you'll set up your survey's basic settings and establish whether you'll identify your respondents or keep them anonymous. 

     Add questions

    Next, create the questions and sub-questions you want respondents to answer. 

    Design your survey 

     Tailor the experience with a customized layout and theme. Then personalize your Welcome page. 

    Prep to promote 

    Import your contacts, then create emails for them. 

     Test your survey 

    Once you're ready, walk through the entire survey experience like a respondent would.  

      Questions for you: 

    • How often do you create surveys for your business?
    • Share your top survey creation tip.

    • How often do you create surveys for your business? Rarely - we typically only use them for event feedback and let company surveys get administered through a third-party to provide more anonymity.  
    • Share your top survey creation tip.  Have an open-ended section available after questions (or at least in each section) so people can provide additional information regarding their answers.  Too often there are multiple ways a response can be interpreted when answered on a scale.  Giving a way for respondents to provide additional information allows for the company to understand what the thoughts are behind answers so changes can be focused on the right things.

    • How often do you create surveys for your business? We only really do them after our major events and find it harder to get people to answer.
    • Share your top survey creation tip. Allow for people to put in comments. Sometimes when you force things into a box it doesn't always work that way on a 1-10 so if you're really trying to gain useful feedback, giving the people to add additional commentary is helpful - but also don't force that additional commentary cause then needing to write a bunch might prevent some people from filling it out. Focus on asking the questions you really only need answers so the survey doesn't appear too much and prevent some people from participating.

    • How often do you create surveys for your business? 
        • Occasionally  
    • Share your top survey creation tip. 
        • Keep it simple. People won't respond if surveys are too long or too much work to complete.

    • How often do you create surveys for your business?
      • Maybe about 1/3 of our customers use surveys.
    • Share your top survey creation tip. 
      • Keep it simple. People tend to lose interest and bail the more questions there are. If it's multiple pages, have a progress bar so they know how close to the end they are.

    • How often do you create surveys for your business? Monthly
    • Share your top survey creation tip. Think about your goal for the survey and whether a question is truly necessary to shorten the survey. A shorter survey will get more responses!

    What questions do you ask on surveys that are the most helpful in gathering information from attendees?
