Conducting your own survey is always possible once you have the time and patience to cover the best practices. It’s fairly easy and yes you can do it!
Prior to starting a survey, one should…
- Define a clear purpose for the survey
- Create research objectives/research questions you intend to answer
- Decide on a methodology to collect the data required
Some popular ways of administering a survey:
- online websites
- emails
- face to face
- mail post
- telephone
In general, the method used to administer a survey questionnaire is dependent on….
- The budget – estimated costs of completing the project
- The target population – population size will influence the sample selection
- The sample size – administering approaches vary base on the sample size
- The timeline – how quickly the data is required does affect the method selected
