An example of what you see for each form you send.

You can't order a volunteer to fill out a form. You can only ask again.

Board members and volunteers mean well and are busy. Asking again, politely and on schedule, is the part FormReminder takes over.

You email the whole board again

A second request to everyone reaches the members who already answered, and the ones who haven't still let it slide.

You cross-check by hand

You open the responses, hold them next to the board list, and work out who is missing. Before the meeting you do it again.

The meeting date doesn't move

The agenda has to go out and every disclosure needs to be on file, so you end up calling the last few people yourself.

Set it up once for each form

  1. Connect your Google Form

    Sign in with Google and pick a form you've already made. The form needs to collect email addresses so responses can be matched to your list.

  2. Add the people who need to respond

    Paste in emails and save them as a group, such as the board, a committee, or this season's volunteers. Use the same group again for your next form.

  3. Set a due date and let it run

    FormReminder emails only the people who haven't submitted. When someone submits, their reminders stop. You can see who's left at any time.

For any form that needs everyone's answer

If a form only works when everyone on the list responds, FormReminder is built for it. Even "nothing to report" counts as an answer.

Board and committees

  • Agenda items before each meeting
  • Committee reports
  • Annual conflict-of-interest disclosures
  • Board self-assessments

Volunteers

  • Shift availability
  • Volunteer hour reports
  • Training acknowledgments
  • Annual volunteer waivers

Programs and partners

  • Chapter and affiliate reports
  • Grantee progress reports
  • Event RSVPs and headcounts
  • Member surveys

It works for staff forms too: policy acknowledgments, event headcounts, and anything else the whole team has to complete.

Questions nonprofits ask

Do board members or volunteers need an account?

No. They get an ordinary email with a link to your form. Only the person sending the form needs a FormReminder account.

Will people who already responded get reminders?

No. Once a response comes in from someone on your list, their reminders stop.

Do we have to stop using Google Forms?

No. FormReminder works with the Google Forms you already build. Support for other form builders is planned.

How does it know who has responded?

It matches the email address on each response to the list you provided. That's why your form needs to collect email addresses.

Can we write our own reminder message?

[Confirm before publishing: whether the wording of reminders can be edited.]

Can someone opt out of reminders?

Yes. Every reminder includes an unsubscribe link.

What information does FormReminder keep?

The email list you add and whether each person has responded. [Confirm before publishing: whether any form answers are stored.]

What does it cost?

[YOUR PRICE]. We plan to offer a free trial at launch. [Confirm before publishing: whether nonprofits get a discount.]
