How To Write A Customer Survey Form

The key to writing a customer survey form is to understand the outcome you require before you start.

By knowing the direction your research and analysis needs to take enables you to write the perfect customer survey form.

All to often, the end analysis is ignored and the results from the research cannot be analysed to produce any worthwhile conclusions.

The first step when writing a customer survey form is to determine the audience for your research.

You need to know your audience well to be able to understand what they will know about the subject of the research and therefore how they will best respond to your questions.

The second step is to list out the main topics for your questions.

This list is then used to produce your questions. For each question, you should determine the type of question it is going to be eg. multiple choice, free text etc.

To make the analysis easier, it is better to try and use the major of questions as fixed answers rather than free text.

When you do use free text, try to guide the respondent into answering your question rather than using the free text to air their views on other subjects.

The third step is to determine the best method of response. It could be written form, online survey, telephone interview etc.

The forth step is to commence with the customer survey. This is the critical phase as the response level here will determine the overall quality and validity of your research.

However tempting it may be, you must never change your questions once the research has started. You need to maintain a constant form throughout the survey.

The fifth step is to produce the analysis. This is the part that moves your project from a simple customer survey form into a meanful project that draws conclusions.

Research analysis on its own is generally useless. The key is to take the research and highlight patterns, directions and conclusions.

Nottingham is a city in the ceremonial county of Nottinghamshire in the East Midlands whose prosperity was founded on the textile industry; in particular lace manufacture.

Very little textile manufacture now takes place in Nottingham, but the City's heyday in this sector endowed it with some fine industrial buildings in the Lace Market district. Many of these have been restored and put to new uses.

Nottingham is home to two universities: the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University. Together they are attended by over 40,000 full-time students. The University of Nottingham's teaching hospital, University of Nottingham Medical School, is part of the largest hospital in the UK, the Queen's Medical Centre.

Nottingham is home to the headquarters of many well-known companies. One of the best known is Boots the Chemists, now Alliance Boots, founded in the city by Jesse Boot 1st Lord Trent in 1849 and substantially expanded by his son John Boot (2nd Lord Trent).Other large current employers include the credit reference agency Experian, the energy company E.ON UK, the tobacco company John Player & Sons, betting company Gala Group, engineering company Siemens, sportswear manufacturers Speedo, high street opticians Vision Express, games and publishing company Games Workshop, and the American credit card company Capital One, whose European offices are situated by the side of Nottingham station. Nottingham is also the home of HM Revenue and Customs and the Driving Standards Agency.

Until recently bicycle manufacturing was a major industry, the city being the birthplace of Raleigh Cycles in 1886 and later joined by Sturmey-Archer, the creator of 3-speed hub gears. However, Raleigh's factory on Triumph Road was demolished in Summer 2003 to make way for the University of Nottingham's expansion of Jubilee Campus.

Nottingham receives a considerable volume of tourism, with almost 300 thousand people visiting from overseas in 2005 alone. Many visitors are attracted by Nottingham's nightlife and shops, by its history, and by the legend of Robin Hood, visiting Sherwood Forest, Nottingham Castle and The Tales of Robin Hood on Maid Marian Way. Popular history-based tourist attractions in central Nottingham include the Castle, City of Caves, Lace Market, The Galleries of Justice, and the City's ancient pubs.

Nottingham is close to the M1 motorway and major roads the A52 and the A46. To the west of Nottingham through to Derby, the A52 is known as Brian Clough Way.
