Why your networking opportunities survey matters

If you’re hosting events but skipping focused feedback on networking, you’re missing out on valuable insights into what your attendees really care about. Event networking isn’t just a “nice to have”—it’s consistently cited as a primary motivation for attendance. In fact, 92% of event attendees say networking opportunities are important, and a striking 85% list it as a top reason for showing up [1].

Here’s what happens if you overlook structured attendee feedback:

• Lost connections: Attendees frustrated with poor networking may not return.

• Missed ROI data: It’s hard to justify or improve your event’s value without understanding attendee needs.

• Wasted marketing dollars: Nearly 69% of event organizers plan to invest more in digital tools[3]—if you’re not investing in the right feedback mechanisms, your upgrades may miss the mark.

Bottom line: A high-quality, conversational Event Attendee survey about networking opportunities is the easiest way to tap into attendee motivations, gather actionable feedback, and future-proof your event strategy.

Why use an AI survey generator for Event Attendee feedback?

Traditional survey tools force you into stiff forms, awkward logic, and manual setup. They feel like homework—not a conversation. An AI survey generator flips the script, letting you create deeper, more interactive experiences with a few clicks. The difference? With AI, you get:

Surveys utilizing AI-driven design experience up to 40% higher completion rates and yield data with 25% fewer inconsistencies compared to traditional methods[6]. This means you get more thoughtful, accurate feedback and a smoother experience for everyone involved.

Specific is designed as a best-in-class conversational survey platform. Our tools feel less like forms, more like natural chat—keeping respondents engaged and delivering cleaner, more actionable data for you.

If you're curious about building surveys this way, our detailed tutorial on how to easily create an event attendee networking survey with AI can help you get started.

Asking better questions: getting real insights, not noise

Writing good survey questions is hard. Vague, biased, or broad prompts produce data you can’t use. Here’s what we mean:

• Bad Question: "Did you enjoy the networking?"

• Good Question: "What specific networking opportunities stood out to you, and how could they be improved for next time?"

Specific’s AI survey editor helps you skip the guesswork by guiding you to sharp, bias-free questions. It automatically flags leading or unclear wording, and rephrases for clarity—all while keeping things approachable for your audience.

Here’s one quick tip: always ask for examples or specifics in your networking surveys, not just yes/no. People remember details, not binary ratings.

If you want more inspiration or ready-made prompts, you can find them in our roundup on the best questions for event attendee networking surveys.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

Most surveys stop at the first answer. But, with AI, the conversation continues. Specific’s survey engine uses context to generate real-time, tailored follow-up questions, probing deeper the way a seasoned event researcher would. This leads to richer answers and less ambiguity.

For example, without smart follow-ups, feedback can get muddled:

• Event Attendee: "Networking was okay, but could be better."

• AI follow-up: "Can you share what would have made the networking opportunities more valuable for you at this event?"

Without that follow-up, you'd never know if they wanted more structured activities, dedicated networking sessions, or a better event app. Manual follow-ups after the fact (like emailing respondents for clarification) are tedious and rarely done, wasting both time and feedback quality.

Try generating a survey and see how conversational, contextual follow-ups make an immediate difference. You can learn more about this innovation on our feature page for automatic AI follow-up questions.

Follow-ups aren’t just a technical trick—they transform the experience into a conversational survey, and that’s where the best feedback happens.

How to deliver: sharable page or in-app widget?

Reaching attendees in the right place matters. With Specific, you’ve got two simple delivery options:

• Sharable landing page surveys: Send a unique link in your post-event email, newsletter, or Slack channel. Perfect for event attendees once the event wraps, or when you want broad, easy access.

• In-product surveys: Embed directly in your event platform, app, or website. Amazing for hybrid or virtual events where attendees can answer feedback questions as they engage, right at the moment networking occurs.

For Event Attendee surveys focused on networking opportunities, landing page surveys usually make the most sense—easy to launch, scalable, and accessible. But if your event is digital or ongoing, in-product surveys close the feedback loop while the experience is fresh.

Survey response analysis: instant AI-powered insights

Manually sorting through dozens or hundreds of open responses is painful. Specific’s AI survey analysis does it for you—summarizing answers, surfacing key themes, and transforming raw data into actionable insights. Features like automatic topic detection and the ability to chat with AI about your feedback let you skip the spreadsheets and get straight to what matters.
