Weeding out Freebie responses - Hi Kevin, I think you have hit on a very interesting challenge. I have found that by really narrowing down who we want to talk with, we can come up with a custom thank you/appreciation gift or prize. That way, we only get a limited number of people who just want the prize. Another way around it, is that by completing the survey, they are entered into a draw for a prize, and not necessarily win. This I would do in a very limited way, or with a much larger audience in order to keep costs down. REgarding your question about how many times can you ask....well, I would say once a year for your current client base. And once for a new prospective client base as well. That's why its so important to ensure you ask all the right questions up front. Cheers
