Customer survey letter and form

When you want to gauge your market and find out exactly what your customers think of you, it’s best to practice the art of sending out a customer survey letter and form. You might have received some of these letters yourself from annoying marketers or companies looking for your opinion.

When you speak to customer service over an issue or have to talk to customer service for any reason, you might find yourself with an e-mail or letter shortly asking you for your opinion on a satisfaction form. These are quite common and they’re relatively simple to fill out, it just requires a little bit of your time and an opinion to be shared.

Dear Jon,

Would mind doing me a quick favor for me? I would like to know about your wish list for this Christmas. I’m planning on writing about what people would like to see in stores this Christmas, and I was hoping to gauge your response as to what you will be looking for this holiday season. Your reply would really mean a lot to me and the marketing team here.

We always appreciate our feedback from respective clients and customers everywhere. I would like to finally state that everyone who participates in the customer market research survey will be put into a random drawing for $1,000 for the holiday season. What could you do with $1,000 extra in your pocket this cheery season?

I’ve enclosed the survey for your convenience, just simply fill it out and return it if you like.
