The key success factors of a B2B customer survey

As with hardly any other form of survey, it is crucial for the success of the B2B customer survey that coordinated advance communication with the participants takes place. With the help of an optimised communication strategy, the ideal conditions for a high willingness to participate can be created in advance. The subsequent e-mail invitation to the survey should not be the first point of contact with the survey project for the customer’s contact persons.

In addition to coordinated communication, a well-conceived model of customer satisfaction and customer retention is key to success in the B2B sector. Here it is important to identify the influencing factors relevant to the company in strategic and operational terms. Rogator recommends its models of the Net Promoter Score^® (NPS^®), des Customer Retention Index (CRI) and the Customer Effort Score (CES) as a basis for analysis. These constructs are used to measure the decisive factors for a successful customer relationship: Enthusiasm, customer retention and simplicity.

The design of surveys in “Responsive Design” has meanwhile become a common practice. The Rogator G3plus software offers all necessary options for this purpose. The mobile display is automatically used as soon as the survey is called up via a smartphone, by way of example. This option is mainly used for B2B surveys by participants in management positions.

Offer several language versions

The online method and our professional questionnaire software G3plus allow your customers to freely choose the questionnaire language. And providing multiple languages is an act of courtesy and appreciation towards the participants. This is why as high a proportion of people as possible should be able to participate in their mother tongue. This generally also leads to a higher response rate.

The “English only” option is often unsatisfactory and may lead to a lower validity of the measurement (due to comprehension problems) or even to the rejection of the customer survey. The necessary translations can be arranged by Rogator within a few days at a reasonable price or they can be provided by the client itself. The Rogator software offers no restrictions regarding the quantity and selection of certain languages. Language variants such as “French for Canada” or “Spanish for Latin America” are also planned.

Rogator advises you individually on all questions regarding the B2B customer survey

How long may the B2B questionnaire be?

People often see the risk that customers will not participate in the survey, for example if it takes longer than 10 minutes. This fear does not coincide with the many years of experience at Rogator. Customers are often prepared to sacrifice 15 or 20 minutes of their time, provided that the questionnaire is professionally prepared in terms of content and appearance.

What are the response rates to a B2B customer survey?

The response rate largely depends on customer involvement, communication efforts and, in particular, address quality. As a rule, 30 percent is already considered a good response rate, although there are always outliers up and down. However, it is also important to achieve as even a rate as possible across various customer groups.

Is the NPS® not already outdated?

In Rogator’s view, the Net Promoter Score® is still very useful if it is used for what it is: a very sensitive and sometimes volatile unit of measurement and as an alarm signal. Often minor trends can already be identified via the NPS^®, which are not yet reflected in the general customer satisfaction. For this reason, it is also and especially used for transactional surveys.

What other questions are useful?

This depends mainly on the client’s business structure and the survey objectives. The following research questions are recurring: What image does our company have with customers? How are individual business units or products valued? How do customers rate the further cooperation? What trends do you see for the industry in general?

Should customer surveys be incentivised?

In order to reward the participants, significantly fewer incentives are usually required in the B2B sector than in other surveys, as the participating customers have a high intrinsic motivation. In addition, compliance guidelines have to be observed, which is why altruistic motives are possible, e.g. a donation to a charity organisation per participant.

How important is communication after the event?

The importance of communicating post-event results varies from one company to another. However, this communication can be important as a motivating factor for the next survey. Therefore, it is quite common and useful to provide clients with the most important results and initial conclusions of the study in a short form. This can be used to convey the message that customer feedback is also taken seriously and that appropriate follow-up measures are taken.
