Regardless of where in the customer journey the survey is, there are common factors that make a good or bad survey.
What makes this survey good?
Easy: The questions do not take a long time to answer, and for most questions you don’t have to type anything.
Clear: Concise questions. The questions are not vague, they have one topic and are easy to respond to (they’re not double barrelled) If any of these questions asked about both customer support and delivery time within the same question, it would be hard to answer. You might rate the delivery time at a 5 but customer support at a 2, so the answer doesn’t reflect what the customer actually believed.
Quick: It follows the general rule that surveys should have no more than 8-10 questions, and each question is 1-2 lines.
Having an online form makes it easy for customers to fill out. It also means that it can link to your email database or CRM.
Feedbackly for example links to the email platform Campaign Monitor, and Typeform links to Mailchimp. These programs make it easier to segment your customers within a platform you already use, and give you information you can run with rather than having to use an Excel Spreadsheet to analyse the results.
