Best Practices For Creating a Slack Poll
Creating a Slack poll is easy. Follow these tips to make it extra fun and engaging.
Focus on The Audience
Verify you are asking a question that is appealing and relevant to the audience you share it with. Make sure you’re reaching your audience by considering additional platforms to share your quiz on. You could share it on any popular social media platform or messaging app and even on niche ones. For example, make it a Whatsapp poll, a Line poll, or a Discord poll as well as a Slack poll.
Keep It Short
Keep the question and answers short so it is easy to comprehend the poll and participate quickly.
Use Images
Adding an appealing image to the poll will improve the engagement rate dramatically. You can add an introduction image to the poll and you can also add images to each one of the answers.
Select Answers Carefully
See that the answers cover all the options and if not offer users to suggest their own answers. Verify there is no overlap between answers. For more details, refer to the poll maker page.
You can easily do it yourself, no need for a developer
