The first sign of survey addiction is that you put one on your blog. 
And another sign is when you can’t resist taking a survey.
Maybe it’s because I am an introvert that I take extra time for planning every year. Most recently, last year, it really paid off with more to my bottom line. It’s important for me to deliver content around what you want. I do write for the love it although it’s more important for me to deliver what you want to hear – for the love of it! Since I don’t have a crystal ball to tell me this, the next best thing is to ask you.
Will you help with a quick survey? It’s only …
Three quick questions.
And, if you are on my email list you will be getting a summary of the results. We’ll be tallying the results!
Thank you for helping.
Thank you for helping this blog be more relevant for the information you need.
What do you think of surveys?
Do you offer them? Do you take them?
What are your thoughts about their value?
Well, having just written a post about a new study
“Career of Path of a Corporate Social Strategist” I guess you could say I like surveys and I use them in my blog. I’m not ashamed to say I don’t know everything and if I find really useful information that’s been unearthed by an expert in a survey, then I’m happy to share that with my readers. Good information can come from anywhere. I believe quoting from authority sources increases the value of your own blog and gives people a reason to come back.
Jeannette, that sharing of information is important. Why keep valuable information covered.
This – from Tom Smith, a friend on LinkedIn and in North Carolina.
1. I think surveys are important for getting consumer feedback; however, I think they need to be informed with one-on-one interviews to add insights to the information provided in the survey.
2. I send surveys and I take surveys.
3. Value depends on how the information that is gathered is used and if you share with respondents how the information they provided helped you improve your product or service. It’s important for those writing the survey to think about how they’re going to use the information provided. If they don’t have a clear answer, do not waste the respondent’s time by asking the question.
I like surveys. I think they’re a great way to engage people in our audience – prospects and clients.
I’ve taken some, and I will be using them soon. I think if the questions are phrased well, the survey is short and easy to take, and maybe a bonus in addition to getting the results.
