The following survey is an initiative of the Healthcare business of Thomson Reuters to assess our won and lost sales opportunities. As the sales director, we are asking for your insight and perspective on the process and outcome of this recent opportunity. This is the same protocol that you have been walked through on the phone. It will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete the questionnaire.
Your responses will be matched with the input we receive from a companion questionnaire asked of your client contact via the telephone. An individual report will be created for this opportunity. Quarterly and Annual reports will be created that show the aggregate of all STATE GOVERNMENT opportunities and will identify trends that will help improve the sales process.
If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Lexa Hoffner at 952-939-4323 or by email at the email address specified below.
Thank you very much for your time and support. Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below.
