7. Takeaways which we can
derive from this sample
survey…
 The survey population as we said were kept
engaged by the type of questions we chose.
 We did not use repetitive or monotonous questions
to glean information.
 We were attempting to get the participants to be
more forthcoming by making these an essay type of
questions.

8. We made sure we kept the
audience from becoming
antsy or distracted…
 we made sure that they were not able to anticipate
the next question by being predictable or like any
other survey they had previously taken.

9. We were determined to keep
our survey moving forward..
 by not being mundane or using inane styles of
query.

10. And finally we come to the
one of the most important
aspects of our survey…
 TO keep it SHORT!!!

11. We provide a feedback
commentary option at the
end of the survey…
 In order to find out as quickly as possible from the
sample population we ask for feedback as a type of
exit polling strategy…

12. We quickly collate and
review the data as quickly
as possible….
 We want to reveal the results from the survey as
soon as possible to the participating organization
to explain what the results indicate…
