2. Get Slack Notifications When New Responses Roll In
Don’t want to constantly check your inbox for new survey responses? We get it—it can feel like you're always refreshing your email, waiting for the next response to come through.
Not only is it a hassle, but it’s also easy to miss something important. But don’t worry, viaSocket has your back!
With this integration, you won’t have to keep an eye on your inbox anymore. Every time a new survey response is submitted, viaSocket will instantly send you a notification in your Slack channel.
That way, you and your team are always in the loop, and you won’t miss a thing. It’s like having your own personal assistant, keeping you up-to-date in real-time, without all the extra clicks and distractions. Super easy, right? Now you can focus on what matters most while staying connected to your data with zero effort.
3.Turn Responses Into Trello Cards (For All Those Follow-Up Tasks)
Got follow-up tasks based on your survey responses? We all know how easy it is to forget a key action item or miss a critical step when things are busy.
Instead of scrambling to jot down notes or manually creating cards in Trello (which can get pretty tedious, let’s be honest), viaSocket has a much easier solution.
With this integration, you can set up viaSocket to automatically create Trello cards every time a new survey response comes in. No more wasting time copying and pasting info or trying to remember what needs to be done next.
Everything gets automatically added to your Trello board, organized and ready for action. It’s like having an extra pair of hands on deck, working for you behind the scenes. Whether it’s a task that needs to be followed up on, a suggestion to review, or a new project to kick off, viaSocket makes sure nothing slips through the cracks. So you can stay on top of things with zero effort!
4. Add New Respondents to Your Mailchimp List
Every new respondent could be your next loyal subscriber! Think about it—each person who takes the time to fill out your survey is already interested in your content or services. So why not take advantage of that?
With this integration, viaSocket makes it super easy by automatically adding each new respondent straight to your Mailchimp email list.
Gone are the days of manually copying emails from survey responses and adding them one by one to your list. Whether it’s a potential customer or a fan of your brand, viaSocket ensures that every survey respondent gets seamlessly added to your Mailchimp list as soon as they submit their answers.
The next time you’re ready to send out a newsletter, promotion, or special offer, you won’t have to waste time gathering email addresses—they’ll already be in your list, ready to hear from you. It's a perfect way to grow your audience without lifting a finger!
5. Send Custom Follow-Up Emails Based on Survey Answers
Survey responses are personal, and so should your follow-up emails be. When people take the time to answer your survey, they’re sharing their thoughts, preferences, and needs with you—so it only makes sense that your follow-up emails reflect that.
With this integration, viaSocket makes it super easy to send customized follow-up emails based on the specific answers your respondents give.
Instead of sending out the same generic email to everyone, viaSocket allows you to tailor your messages to each person. If someone mentions they’re interested in a product, you can send them more information about it. If they indicate a concern, you can follow up with a solution. It’s all about making your emails more relevant, personal, and engaging, which leads to better connections with your audience.
And the best part? You don’t have to manually sort through responses and write individual emails. viaSocket does it all for you, automatically sending out the right message at the right time based on what your respondents said. It's the perfect way to keep your communication personalized and impactful, without any extra effort!
Turn Survey Responses Into Real Action
Collecting customer data is only valuable if you can use it to make informed decisions and take the right next steps. Survey responses don’t help much if they’re just sitting there in SurveyMonkey, going unread, or stuck in a format that’s hard to work with.
By automating your survey tool and integrating it with other apps, you can easily turn customer feedback into real actions. With the help of viaSocket, you can organize survey data in a format that’s ready for analysis in Google Sheets, get instant notifications to stay on top of new responses, and reach out to respondents directly with personalized emails to show you’re listening.
This is just the beginning of what’s possible when you connect SurveyMonkey with viaSocket. Imagine how much more efficient your workflows could be with all your survey responses flowing seamlessly into your next steps. What’s the first task you’ll automate?
