Every businessperson wants to be able to get a “leg up” on the competition. This has been the case for thousands of years and will be the case in the future. Therefore, why wouldn’t every business strive to make the most of all the potential resources at hand? A prudent person handles the operation of his or her business by benefiting from various assets. This is why it is important to start looking for a questionnaire example to implement that will help your business survey its customers.

Incorporating a survey template is a very smart move for any business. The process is easier than one can imagine. Begin by exploring a questionnaire example or two. Having customer satisfaction survey questions on hand means that you will instantly begin gaining access to a wealth of information about how your customers perceive your business. Few pieces of information are in fact quite that valuable or interesting to a business. Once you have gotten hold of a good questionnaire example, you can use it to model your businesses’ own questionnaire.

Once customer feedback information begins flowing in your direction, you will be able to access what changes need to occur and why. The end result may even be an increase in revenue!

How does Social Proof affect your business?

If you don’t know the answer to the question above you may be missing out on tons of extra revenue each and every day.

Social Proof is not a new concept but it is definitely overlooked by businesses and entrepreneurs. I want to share with you a video that was recently put out by Shopper Approved with some eye opening statistics on how Social Proof can help with consumer loyalty and trust.

Now if that video doesn’t make you want to gather customer feedback then I don’t know what will.

We all know the importance of having a happy customer, but what are we doing to share that data we gather from happy customers. Whether you like it or not, your website visitors are actively looking for ratings and reviews about your company, products and services online before they buy. And with Social Media it is even easier today for your customers and visitors to instantly share information about you.

That is why Shopper Approved is so powerful. Taking Social Proof to the next level.

So I have come across a lot of debate about putting Trust Seals on your website. First of all I am letting you know now that this post is going to be short and to the point: TRUST SEALS WORK! It is that simple. Personally I endorse Trust Guard seals and here is why:

Two Recent Consumer Reports™ National Surveys show that…

• The #1 concern visitors have:
  Is my personal information Safe and Secure?
  (88% of Internet users surveyed, viewed this as “Very Important”)
• The #2 concern visitors have:
  Can I Trust the site and the information on it?
  (81% of Internet users surveyed, viewed this as “Very Important”)
• The #3 concern visitors have:
  Does the site have a good Privacy Policy?
  (76% of Internet users surveyed, viewed this as “Very Important”)
• 95% of those surveyed want access to a websites;
  Email address, street address, and phone number.

Trust Guard takes care of all these consumer issues, and this is the simple reason why I choose Trust Guard seals over HackerSafe, TrustE, BBB, and Comodo.

But don’t take my word for it check out a couple of their great testimonials:

“After putting Trust Guard on my web site my conversion rate went from 6.8% to 9.6%! (A 41% Increase!) It has been a tremendous asset for my company! Thank you!”

-Bryan Hoover, RadiantSmile.net

“In the two weeks following installing the Trust Guard seals on my site, sales increased 116% over the prior two week period! Clearly, I’ve been losing sales for months by not having a third-party site verification like Trust Guard. On the Internet, Trust is everything. Thank you Trust Guard! I’m glad I found you.”

-Larry Weaver, FunnyEmployeeAwards.com

 

I also add my testimonial that Trust Guard seals work I have had much success with using the seals on my LearnSEOLive.com site and many others. But the best thing about Trust Guard seals is that they are effective and affordable. Go to their Comparison chart and you will see that you can save $1000s.

So there you go, but don’t take my word for it check it out yourself.

clipped from seo2.0.onreact.com Semantic SEO: Your Website is a Goldmine with On-Site SEO 2.0 You think on-page SEO is dead? It hasn’t even begun! To be clear, your website is a goldmine and you haven’t even started to dig for the gold. In my SEO 2.0 blog I have covered blogging, social media and the likes to the point of excess. At the same time I have dismissed most of on-page SEO as obsolete or as built in basics of even the simplest CMS software. Do you think on-page SEO is just about h1 tags, meta descriptions or enhancing website copy with keywords? Now think again. Consider using the term on-site SEO referring to the whole site not just each page for itself. Now add the adjective “semantic“. Google matches phrases without knowing what they mean. Semantic search is based on understanding what the search query is about. What if you could use software to determine the meaning of your own content and categorize it in topical clusters?
