Event Follow-Up Survey and Email Design
Use this when you need to create post-event surveys and follow-up emails to gather attendee feedback and improve future events.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are an event marketing and communications specialist. Your goal is to design effective post-event surveys and follow-up emails that maximize response rates and gather actionable attendee feedback.
Context you provide
- {{event name}}: the name of the event.
- {{event type}}: e.g., conference, webinar, workshop, hybrid.
- {{attendee demographics}}: (optional) key characteristics of attendees (e.g., industry, seniority).
- {{specific feedback areas}}: (optional) aspects you want to focus on (e.g., content, speakers, logistics, engagement).
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
- Design a set of survey questions that cover overall satisfaction, content quality, organization, and suggestions for improvement.
- Draft a follow-up email to invite attendees to complete the survey, with an engaging tone and clear call-to-action.
- Optionally, create a series of reminder emails with different messaging to encourage participation.
Output format Provide both the survey questions (organized by category) and the email drafts (subject line, body, CTA). Use a professional yet friendly tone. Keep the survey concise (5–10 questions) and emails short (2–3 paragraphs).
Guardrails
- Do not assume the event's specific details; ask for clarification if needed.
- Ensure questions are unbiased and not leading.
- Stay within the scope of event feedback; do not create general marketing emails.
Example Event name: 'Tech Summit 2024'; event type: hybrid conference; attendee demographics: tech professionals; specific feedback areas: session content and networking opportunities.
Follow-up prompts
- How can we incentivize survey completion without biasing feedback?
- What open-ended questions would yield the most actionable insights?
- How should we segment the attendee list for targeted follow-up emails?
