Getting Started
First local businesses must complete an application. Once we
receive the application every applicant goes through a
background check before becoming a member.
Once membership has been granted, we supply the new
member with survey cards to provide to their customers. As
these cards are given to the customers each one must be
encoded by predetermined rules to ensure validity. We will
not process any invalid surveys. This ensures every survey
received is from a valid customer. We will also supply our
member with membership emblems for them to use in any
advertising or promotion as well as displays.
What's Next?
After the surveys are received and shown to be valid, they
are entered into a database that will calculate the averages
for each member in several categories. These are complied
into reports and posted here for everyone to view at no cost.

Why and how do we remain impartial?
We remain completely impartial so that the information that
we provide will be the most accurate reflection of our
members as possible. The customers can not make a good
decision on a member and a member can not manage their
business as effectively without accurate information.
We remain impartial by processing the information exactly
how it comes in. We will not alter or change any valid survey
in anyway. Once a survey is entered only one person can
delete it if it is deemed appropriate after a complete
investigation into the circumstances.
Why don't we just process all surveys?
The reason we require a validation code on all surveys
processed is to ensure that every one is valid and genuine.
We do not want duplicated or false data.
This again would cause inaccurate information.

Why should you choose us?
We advertise our service to the general public several ways, radio, newspaper, fliers, mail, Internet, and the most important and influential way, “word of mouth”. Our service puts all of your previous and current customers in touch with the entire coastal bend region in a compact and easy to use web site.
Accurate, impartial reflection of your services.
The more surveys we get from your customers, the more accurate our information is. The law of averages is a big factor in our service. Since the surveys can be sent at no cost to the customer they are more likely to send in the survey card. The more survey cards that are entered will reflect a representative sample of your customers, the more accurate reflection of their satisfaction, thus the higher and more stable the rating and report.
Market test results
Business Of the local business we spoke to roughly:
40% Were immediately interested 30% Wanted more information 15% Were not interested 15% Would not even listen after we said "web" or "Internet"
Public Interest
Although harder to gauge we did receive 147 hits on this site in 5 hours, with nothing spent on advertising and we weren't even search-able yet. That was just "word of mouth". The public is really wanting a business like ours.
