Make notes how you can improve your future campaigns, prioritize these changes and use the metrics you’ve earned to strengthen engagement. Gather feedback from others – each week print out a couple copies of your campaigns and randomly ask people in your group/ company to give feedback on ways to improve. Select people at random, choosing new guinea pigs each week; acknowledge their feedback and incorporate the ideas you can – your campaigns will strengthen and your ideas for new campaigns will grow.
