Exit survey my ex? You've got to be kidding me. Nope. You're probably still scratching your head wondering what does an exit survey have to do with your ex? Your first thought is probably nothing. Well that is not the case as we found out this week. Typically exit surveys are a common thing when you leave or resign from a job. Not anymore as we've learned. The exit survey has made an unconventional come back. It is now being used when a relationship has ended. That's right!

One woman uses the traditional exit survey when she ends a relationship with her exes. She uses the exit survey to find out how she rated on her dating game and how her girlfriend skills stacked up. The survey is her way of asking her exes for feedback. A bold and very brave move. But, talk about genius. What better way to get some feedback or constructive criticism on your dating and your girlfriend skills. As they say, inquiring minds want to know.

Well, this week the Internet learned who Katie Miller was. Katie's friend Abby Govindan decided to tweet about her friend's genius idea of sending an exit survey to her exes. In true wing-girl fashion, Govindan posted, "there's this girl i know who sends an exit survey to every guy she casually AND seriously dates fjdklafj;sdlkfja."  What? No way! Who would have thought to do this? It goes to show you that you can handle your breakup any way you like. Definitely a boss move. You've got to love it. Needless to say the post when viral and the twitter-verse was buzzing on how brilliant this was. Often a breakup can leave you with many unanswered questions as to what went wrong. Naturally we want to know. 

The exit survey was posted in it's entirety by Abby. It asked questions like, " What is wrong with you?, At what point did you know this wouldn’t work out?, What could Katie have done to enhance this experience for you? Would you like to remain on the mailing list in case Katie revisits your application or another opportunity opens up? and Would you refer Katie to a friend? If so, please list numbers here."

I love that Katie didn't let her breakup phase her. Her practical, matter-of-fact,  non-nonchalant, logical approach to doing her breakup is brilliant. She doesn't get caught up in the emotional firestorm of it all, or stuck in her feelings. She puts on her big girl panties and processes things in a very mature and pragmatic way. With her aim of becoming better at the dating game. Big up yourself Katie Miller. Well played. I've got to say, we can all take a page from Katie Miller's Ex Exit Survey Strategy. Yes, thanks to Katie Miller, the Ex Exit Survey Strategy is now a thing. Every one is talking about how genius it is, that they want to start doing it too. Keep in mind that this approach may not be for everybody and that is totally ok. At the end of the day you do your breakup your way. Because you should never leave a breakup empty handed. As my gran would have said, never waste it!

Information is power. When you have data you can make data-driven decisions to better yourself, change up your game and plan your next move. Whether the men all answer the exit survey or not, those that do are giving Katie great insight and feedback, which honestly is priceless. Data arms your with arsenal to improve your dating game and to grow and develop as a person. I will admit, it is a bit risky. Because you have to be prepared for what they might say. The truth can sting. They're your ex anyway so it really doesn't matter.  

Personally, I think Katie has a great opportunity to turn her data into dollars and bank from her breakup. Seriously, there are so many ways that Katie can leverage her breakup and use this data to her financial advantage. The idea is awesome. She can write and self-publish a book "The Great Ex-it" on Amazon, create the Ex Exit Survey Strategy Workshop or Online Course. The bottomline, is that Katie can help others to do the same and coach them on how to end things with your ex without getting in their feelings. And to move on without being phased by their breakup. She can be known as the Exit Strategy Coach. Breakups are messy and they can go off the rails pretty fast. But nothing puts you back in control than when you have a killer bounce back strategy and approach. I think Katie has something here!

Truly, Katie has her pick of how to monetize her breakup. Thinking outside of the box, she can even create the Ex Exit Survey App that people can download to handle all of the exit strategy needs. Honestly, the possibilities are endless when you think about them. Something for her to think about. I'm sure the last thing she expected was to go viral.
