I want your feedback
The why behind surveys?
Surveys are one of the most underrated sources of feedback that are often overlooked. We as consumers get caught up in our busy lives and when you are getting so many surveys, which one do you fill out? You probably feel like everyone is sending a survey these days, from car dealerships to your favorite fast food restaurants printing them at the bottom of your receipt.
You might ask yourself why everyone wants your feedback, including your staffing provider, and what is done with the data. While I can’t explain the why-behind other surveys, I can provide some insight into the my surveys. Here are the two main reasons I use surveys:
1. I want to know how I can improve to fulfill your staffing needs! If I don’t ask, I will not improve. If you don’t fill out the survey, how am I supposed to improve?
2. Will these improvements keep you as a loyal client? Maybe or maybe not, but how will we know if the survey never gets filled out?
Now that you know the why behind my surveys, here are some tips on understanding it:
These are the things that matter most: understanding of the requirements, professionalisms, and my deliverable.
I want to ask how satisfied you are in these categories on a scale of 1-5, with 1 being unsatisfactory and 5 being outstanding. Of course, we would always like to receive an outstanding rating, but if that is not how you rated us, providing comments on your rating is extremely helpful.
What do we do with the survey responses? Do we just look at the score and move on? No! These surveys are a companywide initiative to make sure that we are fulfilling the needs of our clients. Upper management receives these surveys and provides coaching and feedback where necessary and praise where it is deserved.
Every client is important to me and I value your feedback. We want to be able to provide amazing service and meet your needs every time. We can’t do that without your help.
So next time you see “just another survey” come across your email, take a few moments and fill it out honestly. I cannot improve without your help!
