What should an event interest survey collect?
Ask about topic, audience, preferred format, timing, access needs, and whether updates are welcome.
How is it different from event registration?
An interest survey tests demand before details are final; registration collects confirmed attendee information afterward.
Can the survey support a waitlist?
Yes. Keep the update permission and contact path separate so interested people can hear when registration opens.
