Budget Planning Survey 'How-To'
Is your PTA getting ready to put together your 2013-2014 budget? A good idea is to survey your membership to learn what their priorities are going forward. To help you with your planning, one of our members, Lisa Horwich, has put together this short 'how to' document to assist you with different question types and survey flow. Most surveys can be done for free using tools like Survey Monkey www.surveymonkey.com as long as you keep it to 10 questions or less.
Using a survey is a quick way to keep your families involved in the budget planning process.
If you have any questions, please contact Lisa at lisa@pallasresearch.com.
