The 8 conditions for a successful survey

  • The questioning: clear and balancedWe advise to use short and clear questions in an accessible language. We avoid that the wording is suggestive and ambiguous. We check whether the appropriate question types are always used. We also take a look at the logical order of the questions and whether they should be mandatory or not.
  • The routing: relevant and focusedWe suggest the use of branching and extractions where possible, so that respondents only get to see the questions and answer options that are meaningful to them. In that way they can navigate fluently through the questionnaire. This will considerably increase the probability that they reach the end.
  • The answer options: obvious and completeWe check whether the response scales are sufficiently clear and logical and whether they are used consistently throughout the survey. Are the answer options in the right order and appropriate? Is there a validation when answers are filled in? We make sure that the answer categories cover all possibilities without overlap.
  • The target group: personal and focusedWe put ourselves in the place of your audience. Try to address your respondents in a personal way. Such an approach will increase the response rate. The information you have collected about the respondent (personal coordinates, characteristics , …) can be used in the invitation, the questionnaire or to filter in the reporting.
  • The distribution: decisive and convincingYour response can only be as good as your distribution. We evaluate the choice of distribution methods. This can be by e-mail, web, social media, paper, telephone and/or kiosk. It is important to approach your target group in the most appropriate way. This gives you the best chance to succeed. Depending on the questionnaire and respondents you can consider to add an incentive.If you use e-mail invitations, the subject line, invitation text, lay-out and personalization are of the utmost importance to the success of your survey. We will give you clear recommendations. Reminder mails also stimulate the response rate.
  • The look: recognizable and appealingWe analyze lay-out and construction of your survey. Is the house style of your organization applied seamlessly? Does it provoke sufficient confidence in the invitation and questionnaire? Overloaded pages or extensive texts should be avoided. A nicely developed and concisely formulated invitation can do wonders for your response rates.
  • The timing: the right moment and the most favorable durationWe verify the moment you want to launch your project. Do you reach your target audience on the right day(s) and at the time that suits them best for a successful response? Is the duration of the survey ideal?
  • The analysis: appropriate and enlighteningWe examine whether the questions and answer options are structured in such a way that they immediately lead to actionable insights in the reporting. Are they designed to optimally fulfill expectations for the analysis?
