Frequently Asked Questions
When should I send networking feedback surveys?
Send immediately after dedicated networking sessions while connections are fresh. For general event networking, send within 24 hours of event close. Consider a follow-up survey 2-4 weeks later to track actual business outcomes from connections made.
How do I measure networking ROI?
The form tracks quantity (connections made), quality (meaningful conversations), and potential (follow-up intentions, business opportunities). Compare these metrics against event costs to calculate networking ROI.
What networking formats work best?
The form allows participants to rate different formats (speed networking, open reception, structured introductions). Use aggregate data to identify which formats your audience prefers and delivers the most value.
How can I help introverts network better?
Track comfort levels and preferred formats. Many introverts prefer structured networking (assigned tables, conversation starters) over open receptions. Use feedback to balance different format preferences.
Should I track individual connections made?
For privacy, we recommend tracking quantity and quality rather than specific names. If you need to facilitate introductions, consider a separate opt-in matchmaking system rather than the feedback form.
