You work hard to get new people to join your music team, but often times we see clients who are not immediately engaging with those new enrollees. They sign up, but then may not hear from you for weeks until the next survey, and they may forget about you entirely.
Here are two ways you can engage right away and get new people excited about your music team!
Create an immediate auto-reply in Songscore, so all of your new signups get an immediate welcome to the team.
To do this, go into your mailing list or lists (you’ll need one for each list that is being used to add new users from a webform or your songscore home page). Clic k on Autoresponders at the top right:
Next, fill in the required information and create a nicely worded letter for them to receive. You may want to use a designed template to enhance your presentation:
Save this autoresponder and it will start working immediately! Now, on to tip #2:
Set up an evergreen survey for new panelists.
See the sample letter above? It mentions a short “starter” survey for new panelists to take. This accomplishes several things. First, it gets them involved immediately. Second, it acts as a training session before they take a current survey. Third, you might actually get some useful data!
Pick 10 power golds or all-time greats for the survey. They should be ultra-familiar, making it easy for the first-time participant. Set the end date as something far-off, like 10 years from now. Finally, make the sure these 10 cuts are PRIVATE UPLOADS so they are not archived sometime down the road.
For higher engagement, offer a prize once a month to someone that is NEW to the team, so they feel like they are really valued.
Now that your new signups are appreciated and given a practice run, they are much more likely to participate in future serveys!
