The Survey Method is a potent way for collecting leads that are right on the money. It relies on a very powerful psychological tool to quickly and easily gather contact information from the survey participants. Best of all, the subject of the survey is directly relevant to the product or service your business is selling. Therefore, each contact you collect through this method is already warm and ready to become your customer. Here's how it works.

Let's face it; most people are interested in themselves. While they wouldn't want to admit this fact to anyone, it's still true. Because of this, you, as a marketer, can indirectly appeal to their vanity, and obtain their contact information, through the use of a simple survey. Let's take a look at an example.

Let's say you're offering a product based around Kindle publishing. Your target audience for this product is, obviously, people who want to earn money through writing. Most writers are interested in reading and in other authors, so you fashion a simple survey designed to tell the participants of the survey which famous author they are most like. This survey appeals directly to the desire of your target audience to become an author and, as a corollary, be a famous author.

Designing the survey is easy. Simply Google "online survey software" and you'll find dozens of results that will suit your needs. The software itself will automate both the creation of the survey and its packaging. All you have to do is come up with eight or ten clever and funny survey questions, the famous authors who'll be the result of taking the survey and whether you'll be asking for content information prior to taking the survey or after.

In addition, you also want to provide each participant with the option to share the results of their survey on Facebook and other social media. If they do, their list of friends on that social media outlet will get a message that says "Hey, I'm Edgar Allen Poe. Who are you?" with a link back to the survey, so that anyone who receives this message can take the survey and share the results as well.

Once the survey is complete, you post it on your business branded Facebook account (if you don't have one, create one) and direct traffic to that post through the usual means (paid Facebook ads, social media channels, etc.)- This traffic will mean that people will begin to take the survey and share the results. These shares will generate even more traffic to the survey. Every person who takes the survey will provide contact information directly to you. In addition, a high percentage of these people will be die hard readers and closet authors. Thus, when you send an offer regarding your Kindle publishing product to these leads, it will convert like crazy and your sales will go through the roof.

As long as you make the survey relevant to your product or service, you can repeat this process over and over again, with spectacular sales resulting out the leads you've generated.
