After my agency created a customer satisfaction survey, we had Dr. Van Bennekom critique our survey, recommended to us by the Help Desk Institute. Dr. Van Bennekom offered invaluable input to enhance our process. He went over each question and provided guidance to enrich the responses received from our customers. We are greatly appreciative of the time and attention Dr. Van Bennekom provided to us.

After having read Fred’s customer survey book and hearing him speak, we engaged Fred for some direct consulting. We were finalizing what we believed to be a professional survey instrument for obtaining corporate clients’ feedback and decided to get a final review from Fred. We were very impressed by the volume of valuable feedback. Fred’s insight into the world of service delivery and surveying for feedback helped him polish our survey in ways we hadn’t anticipated, and he helped take it to the next level of focused, professional surveying. In all it was very positive for us.

* A question is defined by the act of the respondent entering some response that creates an entry into the resulting data set. (Sorry if that sounds obtuse and legalese.) So, for example, a "question" that asks the respondent to rate 7 different things would actually be 7 questions, not one.
