A Checklist For Effective Communication
By: Robert F. Abbott

1. What is your objective, what do you want to have happen? Do you want to make more contacts, reduce membership turnover, get new members? Be specific about your objectives, and if you can attach values to them so much the better.

2. What response of readers or listeners is necessary? Do you want recipients of your communication to act or think
differently? Do you want to reinforce existing thinking or
behavior? What do they need to do in terms of your objective?

3. Why would they respond to your message? It's all very well for you to have objectives, but you'll also have to offer something that provides value in their terms. Think of commercial broadcasting, which combines free entertainment with advertising messages.

4. What message content will motivate them to act? What subjects will provide that value to them?

5. How will you present that content? You can entertain, inform, consult, challenge, solve problems, and more.

6. How often will you have to repeat the message? In many cases, you'll need to make multiple contacts to get the response you want. For example, figure on an average of five to seven contacts before an individual becomes a potential member.

7. If you quantified your objectives, does the value of meeting
the objective exceed the cost of communicating?
