Pleasanton Chamber Member Survey

Looking for your feedback

Each year, the Chamber conducts an annual survey of members to determine your satisfaction with your membership. This is the same survey each year, which creates a baseline that measures change over time. It is really important that we (Chamber staff and our Board of Directors) clearly understand the needs of our member, how well we are doing in meeting those needs, and how much better (or worse) we are versus years past.


This survey has four sections with 27 total questions, which ask for either a single choice or for ranking choices on a scale. It should take you no more than 5 minutes to complete. The sections are:


  • Why you joined/what you value most
  • How Important vs. How Well
  • Statements of strengths
  • Chamber member demographics


Please take a few minutes to complete this important survey, and make sure you click the "Submit Survey" button at the bottom when finished. Thank you in advance for participating! We appreciate your support for the Chamber and our community.
