SayPro Date and Time Selection Plan

Objective:
To finalize the most effective date and time for the SayPro webinar based on audience research, historical data analysis, and survey feedback. The selected date and time will ensure maximum attendance and engagement while accommodating global participants and time zone considerations.

1. Data Insights from Audience Research

Based on the research conducted (surveys, focus groups, historical data analysis), the goal is to synthesize the findings and use them to identify the optimal date and time for the upcoming webinar. Key considerations include:

Audience Preferences: Data gathered from surveys and focus groups will provide direct insights into what time slots and days of the week are most convenient for participants.
Historical Webinar Data: The trends observed in past webinars (e.g., time of day, days with highest attendance, engagement patterns) will be a key factor in making the decision.
Global Time Zone Considerations: The selected time must ensure that a significant number of participants from multiple time zones can attend.

2. Factors to Consider in Finalizing the Date and Time

a. Audience Location and Time Zones:

Review the global distribution of attendees to ensure that the chosen time falls within reasonable hours for participants in major regions (e.g., North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia).
Use time zone tools like World Time Buddy or Time Zone Converter to verify that the webinar time is convenient for the majority of the audience.

b. Survey & Focus Group Feedback:

From the survey responses and focus group discussions, identify the most frequently selected time slots and days.
Analyze whether most participants prefer weekday webinars, weekends, early morning, afternoon, or evening sessions.

c. Historical Data Analysis:

Review the historical webinar data, particularly the times with highest registration and attendance.
Assess the engagement levels at different times of day and compare how participants interacted at various times (e.g., morning vs. evening sessions).

d. Seasonal and Calendar Considerations:

Avoid scheduling the webinar during major holidays or peak vacation periods (e.g., Christmas, New Year, summer vacations).
Consider seasonal engagement patterns based on past webinars (e.g., higher engagement during fall or spring months).

3. Time Slot Evaluation Process

Review of Survey Data:
- Extract key timing preferences from employee surveys and focus group feedback.
- Identify the most popular times (e.g., afternoon on weekdays or early evening on weekends) based on participant responses.
Historical Data Analysis:
- Use the historical attendance data to determine if there were consistent patterns for higher attendance based on certain times or days.
- Cross-reference this data with engagement metrics to see if specific times correlated with higher engagement.
Global Time Zone Coordination:
- Use tools to convert preferred time slots into different time zones and ensure they align with global availability.
- Test potential dates and times to ensure they don’t fall on major global holidays or busy periods.
Consult with Event Organizers:
- Review the options with event organizers and stakeholders to ensure that the selected time also aligns with any logistical constraints (e.g., availability of guest speakers, technology setup, etc.).

4. Date and Time Selection Criteria

Criteria	Details
Audience Time Zone Fit	Ensure the selected time is within reasonable hours for major global time zones (e.g., North America, Europe, Asia, Australia).
Survey Feedback	Select a time that most respondents in surveys and focus groups identified as convenient.
Engagement Patterns	Choose a time with historically higher engagement rates (e.g., higher participation in afternoon vs. early morning webinars).
Global Participation	Ensure the timing is conducive to attendees in different regions, especially those in remote or less-represented time zones.
Avoid Major Holidays	Avoid scheduling on major global holidays or events that may overlap with other important corporate events.
Seasonal Considerations	Choose a time that avoids peak vacation seasons or any other seasonal events that may reduce participation (e.g., summer break or end-of-year holidays).

5. Finalizing the Date and Time

Based on the data collected, the following steps will be taken to finalize the most effective date and time for the webinar:

Step 1: Selection of Top Time Slots

Identify 2-3 top time slots from survey feedback, historical data, and focus group results.
The time slots will account for global participation, peak engagement times, and preferred days.

Step 2: Cross-Check with Global Time Zones

Test the top time options using time zone converters and ensure they are convenient for the majority of the target audience.

Step 3: Double-Check for Conflicts with Major Events

Ensure the selected times don’t conflict with major corporate events or public holidays that might impact attendance.

Step 4: Confirm with Event Stakeholders

Share the proposed time slots with event organizers, guest speakers, and other stakeholders to ensure there are no conflicts with their availability.

Step 5: Final Confirmation and Announcement

Select the final date and time based on this comprehensive evaluation.
Announce the final date and time to all relevant stakeholders and update the webinar registration page with the confirmed details.

6. Final Date and Time Selection Example

For example, based on the analysis, the most effective time could be:

Date: Thursday, August 7, 2025
Time: 3:00 PM UTC (This would be a suitable time for participants across North America, Europe, and parts of Asia.)

This is subject to cross-checking with the survey results and ensuring it aligns with the availability of key stakeholders.

7. Communication Plan

Once the final date and time have been selected, the following steps will be implemented to inform participants:

Update the Registration Page: Make sure the registration page reflects the final date, time, and any necessary time zone adjustments.
Send Confirmation Emails: Send an email to all registrants with the confirmed date and time, and include time zone details.
Send Reminder Emails: Set up a series of reminders (1 week before, 1 day before, and 1 hour before the event) to ensure high attendance.
