Frequently asked questions

What is an audience preference poll?

It is a short survey that helps you understand what an audience prefers among a defined set of options, such as topics, formats, features, or event ideas.

How many questions should a preference poll include?

Keep it focused. One main preference question plus a small number of follow-ups is often enough to support a clear decision without reducing completion.

Should I include an other option?

Yes when your options may not cover every valid choice. Pair it with a short optional prompt so people can explain what they would prefer instead.

How should I share poll results?

Summarise the meaningful themes, explain the next step your team is taking, and avoid implying that every individual response will determine the final decision.
