Inviting Senior Level Executives to Participate in Surveys

  1. They are more likely to respond to questions if the answers to those questions would help them benchmark their own work. Offer the results to the survey for participants.
  2. Offer an opportunity to send a donation to a charity in lieu of gift cards or other incentives.

Close to 50% of surveys are taken on mobile devices. This puts quite the onus on you as a survey creator to make sure that your survey is succinct. —Leela Srinivasan

Build Better Surveys

  1. Make sure your survey is mobile-optimized. Preview how your surveys will look on mobile, tablet, desktop, and different browsers.
  2. Consider surveys an extension of your content marketing. Think of surveys as a conversation.
  3. Frame your questions in an engaging way so your participants will dive right in.
  4. Ask questions with empathy so that they know you know their world.
