A useful starting point
Three questions for this specific decision.
Clarify renewal planning messages. These prompts examine deadline meaning, ownership, review guidance. Choose only questions your audience can answer. A missing detail can be answered with none; do not assume an issue occurred.
If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate.
What deadline did the notice describe?
Read for deadline meaning. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
Which next owner was unclear?
Read for ownership. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
What review instruction was missing?
Read for review guidance. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
