The Painless Path to Reputation Marketing

June 13 2013

surveyHow many times have you been surveyed today? The escalating trend in customer satisfaction surveys has increased so much lately that you might dread even the smallest query to a technical support number, sales support representative or—gasp—trip to the grocery store. Inevitably at the end of the interaction, you're asked to spare a few moments to "rate" the experience. The experience of a two minute phone call, that is.

When we have a bad (or especially good) experience it's a no-brainer, and we're actually happy to share our thoughts on the matter. However, because software companies like SurveyGizmo and QuestionPro have made it possible for anyone to create customer surveys, the public at large is starting to use the term "survey fatigue."

As a real estate professional, how do you prevent this onslaught of surveys from interfering with the reputation marketing you conduct for your real estate business? Here are a few pointers:

Make It Quick and Painless: Our agents recommend presenting client review surveys at closing. This is an opportune time, because everyone is in the same room and in most cases are feeling positive about the transaction.

Communicate the Purpose: Often the customer satisfaction surveys we're asked to complete are tied up to the salary and bonus structure of the people helping us. This fact can make consumers feel at once cynical and guilty about completing one. Communicate to your clients that their opinions are only going to be used to help you hone your skills and services, in addition to displaying for future customers what your strengths are.
