Help needed - your opinion is valued

[winton50]

Hi everybody. I'm currently researching some services that I want to start offering and would really value your opinion on training and mentoring.

This is a genuine survey - i don't collect your email address and there's no advertising.

There are 10 questions in total and it should take no more than 2-3 minutes to complete.

I'd really really value your help on this one.

If anyone would like the results of the survey then they can PM me and I'll forward them when done.

the survey can be found here http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/5HZWS8D and if you have any additional points then please do add them to the thread - the more I understand what people are actually feeling about this area then the better for my (hopefully) eventual clients!

All done.

But I struggled to answer some of the questions as it's all abit woolly. Training means different things to different people. For example: if I wanted to know how to paint a widget and a widget painter showed me how then I would consider that to be training. Other people may attend an event where they were shown how to fill in a VAT form but wouldn't consider it training.

Thanks very much for your points.

This is why I find it useful to get other opinions - sometimes we get too close to a subject matter I think.

Done.

For other thinking about using a business mentor you can get it subsidised due to a new government scheme so is well worth giving a try for little financial risk.

All done - hope you get some decent results.

Already I've had some really interesting results and it has been a very useful exercise.

I still need more responses to make it a fair test so if you haven't taken the survey then I'd be really grateful if you would and if you want to pass it on then feel free.

Filled it in mate. I would be interested to see what sort of results come up.

 

[Laura Chattington]

I just did your survey too... would really appreciate knowing what you found.. in similarish line of work and always interested at what the market says.

Thank you once again to everyone that has filled in the survey

I promised in the original post that I wouldn't spam the group with the results but there have been a couple of posts above asking for them.

Would members find it useful for me to publish them?

I ask because I hate the kind of self promotional stuff that forums often get bombarded with

I'm sure nobody will complain if you share the results here.

Good luck

(and yes publish! )
