METHODOLOGY

How Our Quality Service Survey Was Conducted

• 

  Market Research

  We commissioned a highly recognised independent market research agency, Catalyst, to survey a representative sample of 1570 New Zealand adults. Respondents were asked to nominate a service provider in up to 32 categories. To qualify to vote on a category, they must have used a service provider from that industry.

• 

  Consumers Voting

  Survey respondents were asked to rank their experience on the listed companies according to these questions:

  • "PERSONALISATION: How well was the company able to provide the consumer with an individualised customer experience?"
  • "UNDERSTANDING: How effectively was the company able to demonstrate a genuine insight into the customer's needs."
  • "SIMPLICITY: How quick and easy was the process of dealing with the company?"
  • "SATISFACTION: To what level did the company meet or exceed the customer's expectations?"
  • "CONSISTENCY: Did the company deliver ongoing quality service?
•
