📌 Pro Tip: For our kids’s programs, we figured out that shorter surveys work best. More parents responded, and we still gained valuable insights. Simply include more open-ended questions for those who wished to share more details.

Sharing Survey with parents

After creating your swim school survey, spreading the word is key.

Activity Messenger creates a unique link for each survey, making it easy to share on social media and your website. You can even print a QR code to hand near your front desk!

Sharing Your Swim School Survey:

• Social Media and QR Codes: Use social media and online platforms, and place a QR code at the reception
• Email and SMS Integration: Send the survey link through email or text to your swim school families.

📌 Pro Tip: In my experience with several swim schools, distributing surveys via social media, email/SMS and QR codes at the front desk increases response rates. More feedback means better data to help you make smarter decisions as a swim school owner.

Automate surveys at the end of a session

Send automated SMS/email class lists the day after a swim class, event, or swim meet end. Add your survey link to these messages to collect feedback effortlessly.

Making survey collection more efficient with automation:

• Prompt Sending: Surveys are sent right when they matter most (after a class or event), encouraging quick responses.
• Efficient Processes: Use automation to save time and standardize feedback collection making the data even more accurate
