the informed bird gets The worm: Survey your members

11/25/2022

 
You know that saying, "the early bird gets the worm?" Well, we actually think it's the informed bird. Just think about it. A membership survey is not only a great way to understand your customers' wants and needs, it also helps you identify ways you can improve your organization and helps you make informed decisions. You can take the results of the survey and use it as a basis for your future marketing campaigns, service improvements, new features, and membership growth.

Measuring Customer Satisfaction

Picture
​Whether you're a fledgling startup or a well-oiled machine, gauging member satisfaction is crucial for triumph. The value in a survey lies in your representative sample. You want to make sure that the folks taking your survey match the demographics of your membership. Once you've got that locked down, measuring member satisfaction will give you the lowdown on what your customers crave and expect, ultimately boosting engagement, retention (aka profitability) and foster customer loyalty.

The key to nailing customer satisfaction lies in using a tool that dishes out actionable insights. Lucky for you, there are plenty of tools to use. You can go with a system that automatically sends out surveys to your customers, then crunches the numbers and dishes out reports. Alternatively, you can opt for a tool that taps into the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to adapt to your customers' needs. If you're a HubSpot user, we'd highly recommend Survey Monkey, which seamlessly integrates with the HubSpot CRM.

What to include

Creating a survey is just as much about getting feedback as it is about coming up with the right questions. There are several ways to go about doing so. A customer satisfaction tool can be used to measure a variety of key metrics, including satisfaction, loyalty, intent to repurchase, and overall satisfaction. ​
Suggested Questions:
  • ​How did you hear about our organization?
  • How do you prefer receiving information and updates from our organization?
  • What are your reasons for joining our organization?
  • How often do you attend our events, meetings or offerings?
  • What are your favorite aspects of our organization?
  • What are your least favorite aspects of our organization?
  • What suggestions do you have for improving our organization?

Just remember to keep it short and sweet. No one wants to spend a lot of time filling out a survey, so keep your questions concise and to the point. Also, always use clear language. Avoid jargon and technical terms that your members may not understand. Perhaps offer incentives for completing the survey. This could be a discount on membership, a free gift, or simply a thank-you.

​Building consistency FOR COMPARISON

​Developing consistency in your systems and processes is a crucial strategy for any business, no matter how big or small. Consistency helps you deliver better products and services, and makes your business more efficient. Process consistency can also improve customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Process consistency allows you to assess your weaknesses and strengths, and to react to changing conditions in your competitive landscape. It is also a key component of building your brand. Consistency helps you establish trust and reliability at all levels of your organization.

In order to ensure consistency, it is important to create an organizational environment that promotes the concept. Leaders should model consistent behavior. They should also give their employees the power to make decisions and respond to customers. They should also provide training on performance reviews.
