If the decision is made not to locate and invest in your community, it is useful to follow-up with the prospective investor to understand how their decision was reached.
It is important to listen and understand their perspective on your community, their interactions with community representatives, and the overall investment attraction experience. The feedback provided will assist you in identifying areas of strength and opportunities for improvement. Through the review and improvement process, your community will be better positioned for future success.
Our Investment Attraction Follow-Up Questionnaire will help facilitate your discussion with the prospective investor and ask questions related to the investment decision. The questionnaire should be customized to address the particular business investment.
Where possible, a face to face meeting should be arranged; however, a telephone conversation is also appropriate. It is beneficial to maintain a positive working relationship with the prospective investor as future opportunities may arise.
