Example of a Good Survey Solicitation

Lately I’ve been paying more attention to the survey requests that I get.  Here is one that came in mail.  It’s a bit long but has all of the key elements of a good survey request.  Click on to seSnap1_2e it full screen. 

  Of course, I might modify it a bit.  I would not lead with all of that talk about health care costs because some people might stop reading expecting that it’s a fund raising letter.  So I would put the survey stuff from the second paragraph up in the first paragraph, right after the first sentence.  But I still think this is a good strong letter and there is much here to emulated.
