Survey for Free!

When it comes to advertising to people in bulk, it can become a costly affair, sometimes producing minimal results. Especially under economic difficulties, people look for inexpensive means to broadcast their message. There are many companies that offer a service to bulk email thousands of people, however sometimes this requires a service subscription, and can be either be costly for small businesses, or simply be too large of campaign to suit their needs.

MailChimp has been a long time favorite for us to use with small businesses, as it provides a great service with an initial package starting with no cost. Despite being a great and potentially free service, MailChimp just teamed up with Survey Monkey to offer survey distribution!

So what does this mean for the small business owner? Well if you create an account with both, you can now sent out 500 emails a month at no charge, and now you can survey up to 100 people for free, all with just the limitation of 10 questions. Market research is a very powerful tool, especially when you are considering investing in a new product or service. With the two tools combined, business owners can track the number of viewed emails, and now as well as the participated surveys.
