SayPro Feedback Collection and Event Evaluation Strategy

Gathering feedback from attendees after the Strategic Partnerships for Local Television Stations event is essential for evaluating the event’s success and identifying opportunities for improvement. Effective feedback collection will help SayPro understand the attendee experience, assess the quality of the sessions, and ensure future events are even more impactful. Here’s a comprehensive strategy for collecting feedback and evaluating the event:

---

1. Feedback Collection Methods

1.1. Post-Event Surveys

• Survey Distribution: Send a survey to all attendees immediately after the event, ideally within 24 hours. This ensures the event is still fresh in their minds and they are more likely to provide accurate, detailed responses.
• Survey Platforms: Use user-friendly survey platforms such as SurveyMonkey, Google Forms, or Typeform to collect responses. Ensure the platform allows for easy distribution via email and is mobile-friendly for convenience.
• Incentives: Offer an incentive (e.g., discount on future events, access to exclusive content, or entry into a prize drawing) to encourage attendees to complete the survey.

1.2. In-App Feedback

• Event Platform Feedback Tools: If the event was hosted on a digital platform (e.g., Zoom, Hopin, Brella), utilize built-in feedback tools or pop-up surveys to collect feedback after specific sessions or throughout the event. This can include quick rating systems (1-5 stars) or brief comment boxes.
• Real-Time Polling: Use live polls during sessions or in the networking areas to capture instant feedback about attendee satisfaction, engagement, and relevance of the content presented.

1.3. Focus Groups

• Targeted Focus Groups: Select a diverse group of attendees (virtual and in-person) to participate in a focus group after the event. This allows for deeper qualitative feedback and discussion on event strengths and areas for improvement.
• Moderator-led Sessions: Have a moderator guide the discussion, focusing on key event elements such as the content quality, networking opportunities, and technical execution.

1.4. One-on-One Interviews

  • Number of strategic partnerships formed
  • Audience engagement levels during sessions
  • Number of virtual and in-person attendees

3.2. Qualitative Analysis
