I think we could all use a bit of insight as far as what makes people act and it's not always obvious. What's clear is that in today's day and age, if we want a response we have to go after it.
First off, there are triggers. Triggers that peak our interest - triggers that make us act. In order to better understand what makes us tick, we've got to understand what triggers us to take action.
I am not suggesting that schools need to be ruthless marketers, and some of these triggers can backfire or produce negative perceptions in the mind of a parent, but I offer you these none-the-less. Now, you can understand what will get a parents attention.
So, instead of asking for something from parents and assuming they will want to get involved, use a technique instead. Appeal to one of the triggers below. For instance, put the words, 'takes only 2 minutes to complete' on the next form you send home and watch them come back the next day instead of taking a week or more.
Anyway, here ya go!
