Visitor Attraction Survey guide

The Visitor Attraction Survey allows you to build surveys that ask your customers how satisfied they are with different aspects of your attraction. The surveys contain a number of questions to help you understand how your customers are feeling about their experience at your visitor attraction. There is the opportunity to add questions that are specific to your organisation. These include a Net Promoter Score measure, a selection of questions to choose the different aspects of the attraction such as shop or café and the opportunity to add your own statements and choose demographic options. In addition, you can choose to ask for customers’ contact details and set up email alerts. You can choose to end with the Snap Surveys thank you page or your organisation’s own page.

The responses to your survey will help you understand how your customers feel, assisting you in improving and prioritizing your visitor attraction.
