FLASH POLL - FEEDBACK WANTED ON THE MIDWEEK UPDATE AND NEWSFLASH

In an effort to make the Wednesday MidWeek updates and Saturday NewsFlashes as relevant and useful as possible, the management team would like your opinion / feedback on a few questions related to these email communications. All responses are confidential! Thank you in advance for your participation!

In regards to the number of emails:

One email Wednesday and one email Saturday each week is appropriate

I would like to see just one email a week on Saturday morning

I would like to see just one email a week on Wednesday afternoon

I think even just one email a week from the Association is too many

In regards to the length (number of articles) in these emails, I think the length is:

Just about right

There are too many articles in the emails

There needs to be more articles in the emails

In regards to the content (information) - I think overall the content of each article is:

Usually just the right amount of information

Usually contains too little information

Usually contains too much information

Sometimes too much and sometimes too little depending on the article

In regards to repetition of content, even for maximum exposure, I think:

Repitition seen thus far has been necessary and appropriate

Content is repeated too often

Content needs repeated more often

Some content should be posted twice maximum, others (like events) more often

THIS SATURDAY - MARCH 25TH
