When a crisis occurs, the market is filtered. Weak companies leave, strong ones remain.
Pre-assembled customer base– one of the tools that makes the company more resistant to changes in financial weather.
Because you already know by sight the clients who have already bought something from you or who were at least once interested in your products, and you can quickly and effectively restore contact with them.
Moreover, it doesn’t matter whether you have wholesale, services or a store - a customer profile and the formation of a database through it is necessary for everyone.
formation of the base. Why is this?
Just don’t immediately say that it is impossible for you to conduct customer surveys. At one time, we collected contacts and customer reviews even in a butcher shop.
Where people most often go after work, tired and with a great desire to quickly get home, and not do their writing, and for an ordinary counter.
You can collect contacts anywhere and anytime. And first of all, you must decide what information you will collect.
You need to think and decide what information about the client will be useful for you and will bring practical benefits, and what is just for show.
The questionnaire is just a stepping stone before your further actions in which you will use this information.
If we take the minimum marketing package as a basis: calls, mailings, birthday greetings. Then you must collect the following items:
- Company name (B2B only);
- Birthday;
- Cellular telephone;
- Email.
You take further points from your needs. For example, in a store you can also find out the birthdays of loved ones.
This is necessary in order to make special offers for your buyer. sentences with the text: “Your wife/friend/mother’s birthday is coming up.
You can buy a gift for them from us with a 30% discount.” By the way, we successfully practiced this in a flower salon.
In the B2B segment you will need to work a little harder, since the more information you collect, the better.
Examples of questionnaires in action
There is a big difference in data collection in trading floor and over the phone, now I’ll tell you more.
In the case of a telephone, you can say that you fill out the questionnaire yourself and most often weave in additional questions to identify client needs during a conversation.
Based on the results of the communication, the information is also entered not on a printed sheet of paper, but directly into it, in order to simplify further work with the data.
Therefore, this section will be most interesting for stores or companies where the client fills out the questionnaire himself.
In addition to the fact that you only need to collect useful information, You also need to know that the fewer fields there are in the questionnaire, the more willing they will be to fill it out.
Do not think that additional fields make the questionnaire look more solid. No, they only irritate the client. Therefore, the “colder” the client, the shorter the client profile should be.
Below you can see a survey questionnaire template (unformatted version). This is the most minimal version of a new client profile that you can create.
It’s not difficult to supplement it, but we first need to implement this fundamental part according to the rules and laws of marketing, and only then move on.
Example of a questionnaire
- Name. We specifically emphasize that this questionnaire is only for special people.
This flatters the client and eliminates the reluctance to fill it out, because everyone wants to be classified as a VIP client.
- Purpose of collection. Under the title you must write why you are collecting contacts.
In our example, it is no coincidence that “Closed sales” is at the beginning; this once again emphasizes the client’s status and shows his future benefit, that this is a questionnaire for receiving various bonuses.
- FULL NAME. This item combines three components - first name, last name and patronymic.
You also don't need to break it down into several parts, because each answer is additional field, which visually makes the profile more massive.
- Birthday, phone number and e-mail. We help the client understand in what format to enter his data, so that he has a minimum of thoughts and a maximum of actions.
The printed form must contain consent to receive mailings and process data (below).
This is very important point! Without it, don’t even launch the profile “to the people.” The fines are now huge, and people who take advantage of your omission are just waiting for it.
Therefore, we received a signature on the form and put it in a distant box (do not throw it away).
Important. The database needs to be constantly updated. People leave, lose their phones, change their email, and if you don’t track this, then you can make hasty conclusions about efficiency and generally work in vain.
WE ARE ALREADY MORE THAN 29,000 people.
TURN ON
Additional feature
Remember what I said about collecting birthday dates for friends and family? This is a very useful feature.
But I have an even more advanced mechanic for you, where the client leaves, instead of dates (after all, they are not so easy to remember), contact information of your potential clients who may be interested in your product.
The mechanics are very simple. You promise to give a gift to three people whom he indicates in the questionnaire.
To do this, you just need to write their names and contact numbers/emails. Moreover, you can also give him an additional gift for leaving these contact details. This will be the second motivation.
Another example of a questionnaire And then attention. After receiving a completed form with the contacts of three friends, you need to contact them with the words: “Your friend Ivan Ivanovich has prepared a gift for you s_____, you can pick it up at the store s_____ at the address: s_____.”
The phrase is not verbatim, but just an idea to think about, that you need to refer to the recommender and do it as if he was great, and not just handed over your contacts.
5 motivations for filling out a questionnaire
It’s not enough to just do it and place the form near the cash register. It will just lie there and no one will fill it.
You also need to motivate people to fill it out. Moreover, you must come up with additional motivation even for those who have at least some contact with you, and not just buy from you.
To do this, I have prepared for you 5 of our most popular methods of collecting and forming a database.
Database collection methods - Proposal to inform customers about new products. This method is especially relevant in wholesale.
Almost all wholesalers love to receive SMS about new arrivals of goods and, accordingly, to be among the first to purchase them, because they think that new items on their shelves are the key to a chest of money.
- Questionnaire for receiving a bonus card. In Russia, people still love discounts and will willingly fill out a form if you offer a discount or bonus card in return.
And there is one more little trick. You don’t have to give the cards right away, but take the completed form from the client and call him after 2-3 days and invite him to pick up the card. T
Thus, the client will appear at least 2 times, and even better, he will leave with a purchase.
- A small gift in exchange for filling. Everything is simple here, the client fills out a form and receives a gift in exchange.
The gift must be valuable (note, not expensive, but valuable). In each niche, valuable gifts can be different products, but as a rule, this is what you always need, but it’s a pity to buy it yourself.
- Lottery. you run win-win lottery, where to participate you just need to fill out a form (even those who haven’t purchased).
The lottery can be instant and the person will immediately receive the prize, or you can schedule it for a specific day and time if the gift is significant and you are sure that people will come for it.
- Competition for staff. Effective method, if you launch it simultaneously with the lottery.
The idea is simple - the seller/manager who brings the most completed questionnaires within a certain time will receive a reward.
As a reward, trips to a camp site or trips to a beauty salon for women sell well.
In order for the questionnaire potential client well filled and the base was collected, there must be some excuse.
And this excuse should be valuable to your customers. Don’t just put the forms next to the sales manager, but hang up the appropriate information signs.
Launch sweepstakes and staff competitions at the same time. Believe me, the client base is not something you should skimp on.
Important. You don't need a customer satisfaction survey right away. First, collect a database, and only then use it to conduct a quality survey of clients.
Your gifts from partners
Briefly about the main thing
Every day people are less willing to leave their data. I am proof of this myself. Therefore, do not expect 100% completion and collection in the “as it goes” format.
You need to approach this systematically and a little creatively, especially if you have a lot of competition.
But I assure you, when you gather a base of your clients and it helps you out at the right time, you will never underestimate this process again.
Just don't rejoice too early. Collecting the database is only half the battle. What is more important is not the quantity of questionnaires, but the quality.
And this indicator is measured by how positively your base reacts to promotions and offers.
This is not easy to achieve and will require other work from you. But no one said it would be easy.
Having seriously delved into the sea of specialized sources on creating surveys, I decided to publish my knowledge in the form of a serious manual. But with each new block of information its volume began to resemble a full-fledged brochure. Therefore, I decided to divide it into the following three articles:
- In the first one, I will explain the concept of a survey and also explain its importance in internet marketing and blogging. You will learn how it is done, what questions it may contain, I will explain in detail the essence of the questionnaire, and I will show you my procedure for conducting a questionnaire survey.
- In the second post, I'll show you different ways to create a questionnaire on your website. To accomplish this task I will use step by step instructions with original pictures.
- in the third article you will see my method of creating a questionnaire survey using a special script from the LimeSurvey company. I will tell you in detail how you can implement the knowledge of the first article in various surveys on your resource.
What is a social survey
If we talk in simple language, then a social survey is a type of communication in which specific information is collected. Here the creator of the survey (interviewer) asks questions to his opponent (respondent), and then processes them to perform some tasks.
In scientific terms, the survey method is a psychological method communicative interaction between the interviewer and the respondent, which allows you to get answers to the questions posed. In other words, we can say that conducting a survey is a kind of research that allows you to find out the needs of respondents. Basically, the following two survey methods are often used - laddering and questionnaires.
Ladder method
This type of social survey is actively used in various marketing research. Thanks to it, the cause-and-effect relationship between the properties of a product (service, brand), the benefits of use and consumer values is easily revealed.
The implementation of this method is as follows: the respondent is asked questions about various properties of the product (service, brand), consumption options, etc. Usually the conversation goes like this - the interviewer asks “why...?”, the opponent of the survey gives a specific answer. Depending on the answer, the following questions follow, and the opponent answers them. Roughly speaking, this is a conversation in which questions are often formed based on the answers of the respondents.
The advantage of this method is that there is live feedback - the respondent gives comprehensive answers, the interviewer can ask more precise questions to obtain complete data for the study.
The disadvantage of laddering is that respondents may, due to a lack of practical experience in using the object under study, invent answers. That is, they offer the interviewer little conscious or familiar reasons as answers.
What is a survey
This research method uses a specially created questionnaire with pre-prepared questions. In another way it is called a questionnaire. A questionnaire survey does not require live communication with the respondent—questionnaire questions can be answered remotely.
Therefore, this method of conducting a survey has a number of positive aspects:
- a questionnaire survey using pre-prepared questionnaires can be carried out with a large number respondents (majority of the study);
- the survey can be carried out anonymously, without requiring the respondent to provide his/her details (allows for maximum coverage of all segments of the population).
The disadvantage of surveying is significant:
- without having a full-fledged living feedback, a large percentage of questionnaires are left unanswered.
How does a survey differ from a questionnaire?
In the first case, the interviewer can obtain complete answers for the study thanks to his clarifying questions. The respondent is actively involved in the conversation, the interviewer monitors the progress of the conversation and, if necessary, carefully changes the direction of his questions. The main thing here is to ask the first questions on the topic, and then specific leading questions will follow based on the respondent’s answers.
There cannot be such full-fledged contact during a survey. Therefore, the interviewer has to think through in advance the entire range of possible questions (and, accordingly, answers) that will allow him to obtain maximum results for the study. Therefore, the initial preparation is very important here - creating a questionnaire.
Using a Survey in Internet Marketing and Blogging
Using surveys in internet marketing
Social surveys have always accompanied those areas of human activity where there are goods and services. Therefore, it is not surprising that in Internet marketing this tool for obtaining answers is widely used in various fields. Here's an example of some:
- consumer market research (checking the popularity of a trend, assessing purchasing power, etc.);
- assessing the success of a specific product or service (satisfaction with a specific product, customer survey, etc.);
- human resources research (assessment of current personnel, analysis of employee motivation, etc.);
The most commonly used method of conducting a survey is questionnaires. Typically, questionnaires are filled out either before receiving a product (service), or after the purchase.
Laddering is also used to conduct various marketing research. But in this case, full feedback from the buyer is required (often used in the form of an online consultation).
Using Polls in Blogging
The blogosphere mainly uses surveys - it is very difficult to conduct live communication on blogs. It is easier for a blogger to conduct his research by sending out a questionnaire to his subscribers. Of course, not every respondent will answer the survey questions. But this type of survey requires an order of magnitude lower costs than conducting research using laddering.
What topics do bloggers most often do their polls on? In my opinion, the most popular research topics are the following topics of blogger life:
- assessment of the blogger’s activities, research of his ability to provide valuable content to readers;
- researching the functionality of your blog, identifying design errors, receiving recommendations;
- testing your information products, researching their consumer significance for your clients;
The survey is carried out different ways, which I will talk about in more detail in the following articles on this topic. You can see an example of one such questionnaire in the last part of this post.
In the future, all information on creating a survey on your website will be based on the second method, questionnaires.
Drawing up a questionnaire for conducting a survey
As I already said, in the questionnaire method the most important and difficult issue is the moment of creating the questionnaire. The interviewer needs not only to understand the research topic, but also to correctly compose the questionnaire. Below you will see a number of recommendations and my plan for conducting a questionnaire survey.
Rules for compiling a survey questionnaire
- Formation of research objectives. Before creating a questionnaire, you need to think through the objectives of the survey. To do this, it is necessary to compose only such questions, the answers to which will evaluate the study.
- Brevity is not only the sister of talent, but also the success of the survey. Formulate your questions briefly and succinctly - do not add clarifying phrases when everything is clear from the question itself. They will distract the respondent.
- Logic of questions. Veiled and meaningless phrases will lead your opponent away from the real answer. This can confuse the questioner about cause and effect, which can negatively impact the results of the study.
- Sequence of questions. Follow the order of the survey questions. If the sequence in the survey is incorrect, the interviewer will receive distorted information about the study. To prevent this, a simple technique is often used - they first show simple questions, and then increase their degree of complexity.
- One question - one topic. It is better to ask the respondent only one answer per question. Then it will be considered the only important one. Otherwise, if there are several topics, the emphasis on the primary issue may go to someone else.
- No clues. There should be no obvious clues in the survey questions. Otherwise, the research will not be natural - its answers will lead to distortion of the results. Only clarification of a complex issue is allowed.
- Usage open questions . Giving the respondent the opportunity to give his own answer, without choosing from those proposed, the research will be more accurate and complete (covers different sides).
Scheme of conducting a questionnaire survey
Having thought through the research topic and made a list in your head or on paper necessary questions, you can proceed to the stage of creating a questionnaire. Here is my scheme by which I conduct my anchor surveys:
This plan is used for anonymous surveys only. If the survey requires recording the details of the study participants, then another “Registration” item appears. It comes right after the “Welcome” item.
Also, to create a successful profile, I am guided by the following recommendations:
- The questionnaire must not contain spelling errors. Otherwise, respondents’ trust in the interviewer decreases, which may affect the quality of the research results.
- I give everything to every question possible options answers. If necessary, I add a field for the respondent’s personal response.
- Before publishing, I test the created survey. I usually read out loud everything that is written on the application form. I also answer the questions of the so-called aerobatics sheet:
Classification of questions in a survey
All questions used in the questionnaire can be classified:
- questions about the facts of consciousness (show the respondent’s opinion, his wishes and plans for the future);
- questions about the facts of behavior (reveal the actions and actions of the respondent);
- questions about the identity of the respondent (show him personal characteristics- gender, age, etc.).
according to form
- closed questions. In the questionnaire, there are ready-made answers for them, from which the respondent chooses his option;
- open questions. They do not influence the respondent's answer (no suggested answers). Thus, they allow him to express his point of view on the issue. Therefore, they are more informative and complete than closed ones.
- half-closed questions. They contain both obvious answer options and the opportunity for the respondent to write their own option.
- direct and indirect questions.
A few words about closed questions. They can be alternative (the respondent can choose only one answer option from those proposed) and non-alternative (several answer options). They are mainly used in simple questions where the choice is obvious (one or more). Otherwise, if a detailed answer is required from the respondent, open or semi-closed questions are proposed.
according to the way the question is presented
This type of question will be discussed with examples in the last part of this manual (3rd post about the script).
Common mistakes when creating a survey
Illogical questions (answers). This error is often found in questionnaires - the questions (or answers) contain semantic logical inconsistencies and contradictions. As a result, such questionnaires are difficult to analyze, and the research results will be unreliable. Here is an example of a half-closed question with an extra answer (the last one) that can confuse the respondent for some time:
Multiple survey topics available. In order not to distract the respondent from the questions, you should not cram two topics into one question at once. Otherwise, the results may lose their information content (distortion of information). Here is an example of a survey question with several topics for discussion:
Lack of equal choice. It happens that a survey question divides the respondent’s opinion into opposite halves. Not only does he not be able to choose the normal answer, but it also overtaxes his brain. Here is an example of such a question:
Presence of specific issues requiring special knowledge. I recently responded to a questionnaire from a popular information businessman on the Runet regarding his mailing list. Many of his questionnaire questions contained specific terms. I had to surf Yandex in search of deciphering tricky phrases.
Very difficult questions . Simplicity is the key to success in any business. The rule here is simple - the simpler the question, the more adequate the result will be. Here is an example of one question about instant coffee, after which the desire to answer may decrease:
An example of a questionnaire to evaluate your website
In conclusion, I offer you a small template version of a survey to evaluate your personal website. The questions in this questionnaire are simple, the answers contain a little humor. You can make your own version of the questionnaire using this template and get a lot of useful and relevant information about your site. Here is the link to this questionnaire:
This concludes the theoretical part about compiling surveys. In the next part, I will talk about how to create a questionnaire survey on your website in various ways.
Sincerely, Your Maxim Dovzhenko
Researchers attribute the results to a variety of reasons. As you know, we forget a lot, but if we talk about a positive experience, it gets stuck in the memory and then comes up more easily. There is another psychological reason: a person strives to avoid cognitive dissonance - and if he has once thought favorably about something, he is unlikely to easily switch to a negative attitude. “We praise what we like, and we like what we praise,” says one of the research team, Hilary Hendricks, MBA, of Brigham Young University.
Experts acknowledge that nudges may be ethically questionable, but offer several arguments in their defense. First, few clients consider the desire for praise to be manipulative. “The request is perceived as sincere or even flattering,” they write. In addition, Bone adds, according to the observations of psychologists, it is pleasant for us to express gratitude and it can be assumed that the person who was asked to say something good will seem more prosperous to himself. According to the researchers, using this technique, companies should build good relationships with customers, and not just direct their opinions in the right direction.
"Make You Love"
Burke Powers led JetBlue's Voice of the Customer program from 2009 to 2011 (he is now head of customer analytics at PayPal). He recently spoke about his experience at JetBlue. Here are edited excerpts from his HBR interview.
– How did JetBlue notice that the tone of the questionnaire affects customers’ opinions about the quality of the service?
“When I came to JetBlue, the CEO of this company had just left, and it was important for us to restore trust. The idea of "nudge" was just starting to come into vogue, and we were thinking about how we could influence customers' actions and their opinions of us. In graduate school, I studied Kristen Detienne's work on questionnaires. Through trial and error, we found that the right questionnaire helps to get praise from customers for the company, and not just complaints.
– Were you concerned that clients might feel like they were being forced to do this?
– We discussed this for a long time. Psychological techniques can force a person to change his attitude towards something, but if you do something wrong, you lose his trust. We must not forget that there is reality and there is its perception. You can “embellish the picture” for a while, but reality will inevitably emerge. If the service is generally not up to par, the trick will fail. Don’t think that it’s enough to change the wording in the questionnaire and the client will love you. First you need to achieve his love.
– If you focus on positive experiences, how will you learn about yours? weaknesses and what needs to be fixed?
“Even without a survey, it’s easy to understand where the process goes wrong. Conclusions must be drawn from the analysis of social networks and scientific analytics. And questionnaires are needed not so much to assess sentiment, but to let people know that they are being heard. They need to be given the opportunity to remember pleasant moments in their interactions with the company.
Detienne cautions against putting undue pressure on clients.
In Ontario, she says, Delta Air Lines employees handed out flyers to passengers with the slogan “Give us an A” on all points on the questionnaire. Reviews are especially important in medicine because they can influence the amount of federal funding. It is important that employees know that seeking praise by pressing a client is absolutely prohibited - they can be fired immediately for this.
The authors are concerned that managers may take their findings as advice on how to increase the customer satisfaction index - and, accordingly, their salary, which depends on this index. Experiments have shown that asking for praise increases the loyalty index by 15%, and the desire to make a purchase by a quarter. If managers rework the questionnaire so that there is only one positive in it, company management may interpret this as a real improvement, therefore, in order not to distort the real state of affairs, it is better to maintain the same survey procedure in the control group of clients.
Finally, scientists note that improving service based on pedaling alone positive feedback impossible.

Research problem:
Currently, there is an irritable attitude among technical students towards the presence of courses in the humanities in the list of compulsory subjects. Students claim that these subjects are uninteresting and there is no need to study them. This attitude towards the subject is the reason for a bad relationship with the teacher. Often such students have difficulty preparing for an exam or test. Some pass with unsatisfactory grades.
Purpose of the study:
The main goal is to identify trends in the attitude towards the humanities of BSUIR students of various faculties and specialties.
Object of study:
Students from all faculties of BSUIR.
Subject of study:
Attitude of BSUIR students to humanities.
Research Tool:
Questionnaire of 11 questions. Both closed and open questions are used.
Information collection methods:
The survey method is a formalized questionnaire.
Research objectives:
Identify and compare the attitudes of students from different faculties towards the humanities.
Find out the degree of need for the humanities.
Determine what role the humanities play in the lives of students.
Explore their suggestions for changing the way the humanities are presented.
Research hypothesis:
The attitude of BSUIR students to the humanities directly depends on their specialty.
The older the course, the more negative the opinion on this issue.
Senior courses are irritated by humanities subjects.
Students will propose introducing courses in the humanities as optional.

“Thank you for participating in the survey!”
During the study, 100 respondents were interviewed. Of these, 50% are male, 50% are female.
35% are respondents aged from 35 to 44 years old, 29% - from 25 to 34 years old, 8% - from 18 to 24 years old, 28-45-60 years old.
89% of respondents are workers, 7% are students, and 4% have another occupation.
From the questionnaire, we learned that most of the clients surveyed are our regular customers, because... This is not the first time they order products - 84%.
22% of respondents ordered from companies like ours.
The majority of respondents learned about our company from the Internet - 79%, 12% of respondents contacted our company on the advice of friends, and 9% learned about us from other sources.
When asked which type of our product you like best, respondents answered as follows:
11% of respondents like a magnet with a thermometer, 14% prefer a magnet with a block, 16% prefer puzzle magnets, 20% prefer a magnet in the form of a photo frame, 22% prefer a regular flat magnet.
And as 12% of respondents who placed orders from companies like ours believe that our products are much better, or better in some way - 11%, the remaining 77% did not order from similar companies, so they find it difficult to answer.
To the question, “What do you think is the quality of our products?” The following responses were received:
81% - high, 16% - average and 3% - dissatisfied, and explain this by the fact that there are problems with the quality of product delivery.
78% of respondents believe that the service in our company is 5, i.e. excellent.
Unfortunately, out of 100% of respondents, as many as 29% gave a negative answer to the question about the supply of our products.
As for the further purchase of goods from us, 22% of respondents answered positively, 66% answered “possibly”, 12% answered negatively due to the lack of desire to purchase anything.
94% of respondents would recommend the products of this company to their friends and acquaintances, 6% would hardly recommend them.
And finally, to the last and most important question, “What can Magnitik LLC do, in your opinion, to increase your level of satisfaction?”, respondents gave the following recommendations: improve the quality of delivery, improve delivery times, they also recommended giving extended advertising.
Thus, based on the results of the study, we can conclude that customers are satisfied with the products of Magnitik LLC. The majority of respondents will continue to place orders with our company and will also recommend it to their friends. If we improve the quality and delivery time of our products and provide more extensive advertising, then perhaps our company will have more customers.
