Good Morning/ Afternoon, my name is ........ from Paterson Consulting. We are conducting a survey with Vets to benchmark Bayer Animal Health against competitors in Companion Animal marketing in a number of key areas.


We are not looking to sell you anything. Your responses will remain confidential and will be combined with those of other participants. The survey will take approximately 10 minutes and we are only after your honest opinions - there are no right or wrong answers.


Is this a convenient time to conduct the survey or would you prefer that I call back?
