Agree also with the "Asking the people around you" one. It was 15 years ago that I first suggested to my literary society that, if it wants to evaluate how well it's serving its membership, it should ask not its current members but those who have recently dropped out, and those who've come to our conferences but not joined the society - names and addresses for these people should be easily extractable from our records. But so far as I know they never took me up on this idea.
