Snap Tip

Snap Profile
Suzanne Cagle is Strategic Research Manager for Golf Datatech, LLC.
Suzanne is responsible for creating, programming and fielding research studies for various golf industry companies. All of the surveys are web based.
“We do all kinds of research studies… from advertising testing to satisfaction studies, to awareness and usage studies. I currently have 3 Attitude & Usage studies and an Advertising Testing study fielding at the same time. We average at least a couple of surveys a month.“
What do you most enjoy about your job? “I love ’golf’ as do the people who participate in our research studies. There is always a new technology or new ruling that affects the game and golf companies need the consumer’s opinions, that’s where we come in.“
What do you like about Snap? “Love the software and its capabilities… my surveys are clean looking and easy for respondents to take…… And the Tech Support staff are awesome too!!!“
UK Update
Snap Employee Research Networking Seminars
How do your employees feel about their role in the organisation? Are they happy in their work? Does your organisational culture support your business strategy?
We will be holding networking seminars in Manchester and London in October, which will provide insight into how survey research can be used to help tackle some of the issues and challenges facing HR professionals today. The seminar will also be an excellent opportunity for delegates to share best practice and network with colleagues from a range of sectors.

Visiting the Bristol Balloon Fiesta running 6 – 9 August 2009? Keep a look out for the Snap balloon. If you take part in the visitor survey spare a thought for the Snap data processing team who will be doing the data entry!
We also work on the visitor surveys including the online survey for the Royal International Air Tattoo at Fairford which took place 18 – 19 July.
We undertake full surveys, data entry or analysis for a number of visitor attractions [amongst many other clients]. There’s still time to take advantage of a 20% discount on data entry until the end of August.
Snap Poll
In July we asked you how often your organisation runs staff surveys. Not surprisingly 42% of organisations carry out an annual staff survey. At Snap we have just completed our own annual staff survey. More surprisingly perhaps, 28% of you said that your organisation rarely or never carries out staff surveys, does this apply to very small organisations only? It would be interesting to find out!
Snap have a lot of experience in setting up and running staff surveys – give us a call to find out more on 01454 280 860 or email projects@snapsurveys.com
