How to create a custom survey?
This is how to create custom surveys that our team can implement in a promotion to gain valuable data from your Loyalty members.
Creating Custom Surveys in the Classic View
Custom surveys are a powerful way to gather information from your clients about virtually anything – from their beverage preferences to communication preferences and beyond. Unlike smart surveys (which require IT customization), these surveys can be easily created and managed by you directly.
Getting Started
- From your dashboard, locate the "Survey" option (found underneath the letters "ER" in "Manager") and click on it
- Select "Create a new survey"
- Choose a descriptive name for your survey (e.g., "Brandslam Pizza Subscription Team")
- Click "Create Survey"
Setting Up Incentives
Offering bonus points can significantly increase your response rate:
- Select "Issue bonus points to card members upon survey completion"
- A common incentive is 20-25 points
- Points are automatically added to customer accounts immediately upon survey submission
Creating Questions
You can choose from five question types:
- Multiple-choice (one answer only) - Customer selects a single option
- Multiple-choice (multiple answers) - "Select all that apply" format
- Range of multiple-choice - Similar to multiple answers
- Drop-down list - Presents options in a drop-down menu
- Open text field - Allows customers to write free-form responses
Example Question Setup
For a pizza subscription survey:
- Question: "Grand Slam would like to offer a 12-month pizza subscription. Would this interest you or not?"
- Answer options (enter one per line):
- "Yes, I'd love a pizza a month"
- "No, I don't eat pizza that often"
- "Maybe, it depends on the price"
- Make sure to select "Require an answer to this question" if needed
- Click "Save"
Finalizing Your Survey
- Review the preview of your question(s)
- If you want to add more questions, click the "Add" button
- When finished, click "I'm finished with this survey"
Monitoring Responses
Two types of reports are available:
- Summary Report: Shows percentages for each answer option and total number of responses
- Member Report: Shows individual responses
You can also generate links to place your survey on your website for additional responses.
That's all there is to creating and managing custom surveys! It's a simple yet effective way to gather valuable feedback from your customers.
