After the event
2 hours later: participant feedback
Feedback email sent after the event serves three purposes:
- Acknowledgment and Thanks: It thanks participants for attending, making them feel valued and appreciated for their time and engagement.
- Feedback Collection: The email prompts participants to share insights or stories from the event and to rate the value of the conversation. This feedback is crucial for measuring the event's impact and for continual improvement.
- Follow-Up Engagement: Encouraging feedback keeps the conversation going even after the event has ended and helps build a relationship between the host and the attendees.
2 days later: feedback reminder
- Enhanced Feedback Rates: Sending a feedback reminder to participants increases the likelihood of collecting valuable insights, as it provides a second opportunity for those who may have missed the first feedback prompt.
2 days later: Feedback reminder if the host left a thank you note
- Community Building and Engagement: Sharing a host's thank you note in the feedback reminder helps cultivate a sense of belonging and shared purpose, which not only strengthens community bonds but also positively influences participants to reciprocate with detailed feedback, thereby boosting response rates and engagement.
