I received, as I am sure many of you have, a faxed 3 page survey from
Medical Connections, stating that they are conducting this survey for a
client, a prosthetic manufacturer. Upon on calling their phone number to
inquire just who their client is, I got what I expected, a run-around. The
only thing they would say that it was for market research -- like that is
some kind of magic word which should cause me to jump for joy with the
opportunity to participate. Never did find out who the prosthetic
manufacturer client is.
They even offered a big ole $5 donation to a charitable organization of my
choice for participating.
I don't know about anyone else, but I am just not inclined to respond to a
survey in which the surveyor is not willing to identify the client. It
makes me wonder about the validity of the prosthetic manufacturer client.
And, oh yes -- they did request that the participant identify itself.
