** Tailor questions to different groups.
** Piggyback on existing meetings and eventsโฆ Secure slots at regular meetings to outline the LSIP and invite feedback, linking to online surveys or workshops.
** Design short, targeted engagements for businesses: brief online surveys, 15-minute phone calls, or 20-minute online focus groups
** Leverage existing events and newsletters for business representative groups.
** Use online registration and calendar booking apps (microsoftโs outlook booking page is pretty good!)
** Buy business contact details to supplement existing lists for surveys.
Leverage digital and mobile technology:
โ Use apps for voice/video feedback (with transcription and summary analysis).
โ Utilise automated transcription services, ensuring recording permissions are part of booking.
โ Employ online surveys for their low cost and instant data, but be aware of low response rates; keep them 2-3 minutes to complete.
โ Use a CRM and email management system for seamless workflow
