This Months Useful Tip

When designing your survey header graphic, try to include only generic text so the header is suitable for use in all of your surveys. This makes copying and editing the survey for later re-use a breeze.

Customising the survey with dates and survey-specific text can be easily achieved using the Survey and Page titling options thereafter.

SurveyAssistT is a complete solution for all your Online Survey and Online Questionnaire needs.

SurveyAssistT is SurveyShack's fully managed survey solution for users that require a quick turnaround and for people who don't have the time to spend on the creation and distribution.

Let us do the work for you!

You send us the questions and we create and distribute your survey and provide you with the results.

The survey can be customised and branded to your needs with the inclusion of logos, images and any other customisations required.

"We established SurveyAssist some time ago as a managed service to cater for infrequent jobs where the client needed a bit more assistance. The result is that jobs are done quicker and with a higher level of quality since we have an "expert" doing the work." says Rich Alexandre, SurveyShack.com Ltd MD.

This year will see major growth in this sector for SurveyShack as we continue to gain more exposure and market share with a new marketing campaign and by continuing to deliver a great product with exceptional customer service.

The SurveyAssist solution can be applied to almost any scenario where you need to gather information. Here are some examples of what we are currently doing for clients:

Next month look out for companies that are already using SurveyAssist to add value to their business and client base.

OLM (Organisation Leadership and Management) Diagnostic Goes Live in Business Link South West Region!

The new OLM diagnostic tool has now been implemented throughout the Business Link South West region where key Business Link advisors have received comprehensive on-line training provided by the STAP.co.uk support team.

"We've worked very closely with Business Link Swindon and Wiltshire, together with Business Link West & Gloucestershire, to ensure the content enables them to easily diagnose a company's position in terms of Organisational Leadership and Management development needs" says Francine Heywood, SurveyShack.com Ltd Sales Director. The benefit of this Diagnostic tool is not only the simplicity and efficiency of the online questionnaire format, but the fact that it has been created by industry professionals and is based on both IIP and Management Standards evaluation recommendations, thus ensuring the results are completely reliable".

"We are delighted with the new OLM diagnostic tool" comments Sarah Wearing, Business Link Wiltshire Manager. "Throughout the piloting and evaluation process it was soon obvious this was going to improve our reach to SMEs in our region enormously and with the flexible and effective training program now completed, the implementation has been a breeze".

The diagnostic provides an overview of the development needs for the company, and being a 360-type diagnostic, it can be completed by one or more people from the company being assessed. The results are available immediately upon a respondent completing their questionnaire online and the report template which is provided further simplifies the whole assessment process.

For more information on the STAP OLM diagnostic program, contact info@STAP.co.uk

This Months STAP Helpful Tip:
1. Folders Management
When you've completed setting up a new diagnostic, get in the habit of using the folders tools to file this new diagnostic according to your preferences before clicking on the 'commit' button. It will be much quicker to locate should you need to go and add another recipient during the assessment, and for when it comes time to view the results.
 
2. Making your invitation emails effective.
You get one go at inspiring your invitee to click on the link and respond immediately so the way your invitation email is worded is critical. Think about the subject line firstly. A busy SME manager is always sifting through the highest priority emails so make the subject line stand out. How about: 'Just 2.6 mins of your time Fred' or '2.6 min diagnostic survey - as discussed' perhaps.

The content of the email message has to keep driving the invitee to click on the link and open the survey so again, sell the idea as best you can. Personalising wherever possible is a great way to capture a busy person's attention. One we've seen that has apparently worked well is:

Dear (Invitee),
As you're one of a select group of only 4 who have been chosen by (Main Company Contact) to participate in this business evaluation project, it is essential we have your response within the next 24hrs so all the data can be collated properly.

Please click on this link where you'll simply be asked to click on tickboxes to provide your input. It will only take 2.6 minutes of your time.

Regards etc.

What CLC's Say
 
 
 
This Months CLC Surveys
New Idea:
One enquirer recently had a need to monitor room usage as well as gather student feedback. No problem for the CLC Surveys tool! Just add questions requesting which room the respondent was using and the date, then by filtering the results on these two questions in the reporting menu, the rooms used by date are easily reported on.

New Stress in the Workplace Diagnostic Tool

SurveyShack.com Ltd has launched the latest addition to the growing line-up of specialist applications in the form of www.StressFreeWay.com, an online work-related Stress appraisal system. The StressFreeWay diagnostic tool combines the latest research on work-related Stress with tried and true online diagnostic technology to provide for a fast and effective means of surveying an organisation to determine what interventions are required and where.

The recently introduced HSE guidelines for ensuring businesses are attending to managing work-related stress as part of their overall Health and Safety strategy has created sudden demand for the need to appraise organisations accurately to identify where the stress hotspots are', says Francine Heywood, Sales Director for StressFreeWay.

The key feature of the StressFreeWay proposition is the low-risk offer. Investing in any HSE legislation requirement is usually always challenged by business executives due to the most often ill-defined financial returns. StressFreeWay provides the opportunity to appraise the organisation first to identify the scale and whereabouts of Stress problems, from which a clear and measurable ROI can be calculated. Once the numbers show that it is clearly worth investing in managing stress properly within an organisation, it's an easy decision to take!
