How do you make a follow up question?

There are four flavors of follow-up: Ask for elaboration: You want them to provide further details on their initial idea. Ask in a different way: You want them to approach their idea from a different perspective. Ask about an orthogonal topic: You think there’s a connection to be made.

  Why is it important to ask follow up questions?

  Without follow-up questions, you and your conversation partner will end up asking and responding to a series of questions without ever talking in-depth about any particular topic—which will feel awkward. Follow-up questions keep the conversation moving forward and allow for clarification and elaboration of details.

  What happens when you customize a follow up question?

  When you customize the follow-up question, you can expect a higher number of responses because the customer knows that it has been crafted for them. You can send a bunch of follow-up questions after the NPS survey. You don’t have to think of getting all the answers in just a single response.

  What are the cues to ask follow up questions?

  There are three cues I use: Loaded Terms: When the participant uses a term that might have meaning beyond the dictionary definition — like “bottleneck,” in my example above.
