Community feedback posts tap into your members' natural desire to share their experiences and help shape the spaces they belong to. By openly requesting input, you signal that every voice is valued and that the community is a shared effort. This approach fosters trust and strengthens the sense of belonging among members.
Asking for feedback also gives members a sense of ownership, making them more likely to engage and invest in the community's success. Open-ended prompts encourage deeper conversations, surface useful suggestions, and highlight areas for improvement you might not have noticed. The result is a community that grows stronger and more vibrant with every member's input.

Choose a feedback template that matches your community's current needs or goals. Post it as a standalone thread, in your regular updates, or as part of a poll. Make sure to follow up by acknowledging responses and, when possible, sharing what actions you will take based on the feedback. Rotate the topics you ask about so members stay interested and feel their input truly shapes the community.
Since these templates are for all platforms, adapt your post format to fit the platform's features. On forums, use threads to collect detailed responses. On chat platforms, consider pinning feedback requests. On social media, use stories or polls for quick feedback, but always invite longer comments. Always tag or mention relevant groups if the feedback is topic-specific.
Aim to post a feedback prompt once or twice a month. Adjust frequency based on your community's engagement patterns and current needs.
Thank members for their input, summarize key themes, and communicate any actions or changes you plan to make based on their suggestions.
Keep questions open and low-pressure, reassure members that all feedback is valued, and occasionally use anonymous polls to lower barriers.
Acknowledge as many as possible, especially detailed or constructive comments, to show appreciation and build trust.
Open-ended questions usually yield richer insights, but mixing in occasional closed or multiple-choice questions can help increase response rates.
View negative feedback as an opportunity to improve. Respond professionally, thank the member, and share any steps you will take.
Select templates that fit current community goals, recent changes, or recurring topics. Rotate themes to keep feedback fresh and relevant.
