Organization Focus
 

Some of the following questions are ones we discussed in the meeting on November 20, but we would like to ensure that we have your individual responses.


What parts (i.e. graphics, content) of your current website do you want to make sure we maintain when we move to the new system?



What items do you like least about your current website?


At the end of the day, what do you expect this website solution will do for your organization?


Additional thoughts/concerns?



Additional Website Content

Please rate the following potential categories/content for the website solution. Keep in mind that some organizations have different needs, so not all categories will be pertinent to your website. The website solution will be set up so that you can decide which categories you want for your current website, but websites will be scalable so we can easily add or remove sections at later dates. These questions are general and nature additional detail will be gathered during the one-on-one interviews. How important are the following to you/your organization (1 being least important, 5 being most important)?
