Welcome to the Schiff Hardin Marketing Survey,

The attached Marketing Survey outlines eight key processes that constitute a comprehensive marketing program and a series of activities that support these processes. There are three key questions for you to answer regarding each of the activities you see listed under each process:

1. How important is this activity to my Practice Group?

2. How well does my Practice Group perform this activity?

3. How well does the Marketing Department perform this activity?

Responding across the page, please answer all three questions for each activity before you move to the next activity. A response of “N/A” indicates the activity is not applicable to your Practice Group or to the Marketing Department.

If you do not answer a question, the survey will automatically note it and it will not allow you to continue.

Following the rating scale sections, there are two open response questions soliciting your additional feedback.

If you have any questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, please contact Theresa Jaffe at (847) 432-0369 or [email protected].

Thank you very much for your time and support. Please start the survey now by clicking the Continue button below.
