We have created many different survey products for consultants ranging from automated surveys available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to administering a single survey to a large population in a short period of time.
STAR can work with you to simplify the administration process, collect the data, give you real-time data access and produce clear, appealing reports for any survey. By having us gather the data and/or produce reports, you have more time to spend working with clients and using the data to drive change. You no longer need to spend time chasing paper and administering surveys.
We can be invisible to your clients
Some of our clients prefer to have us be "invisible" to their end clients. We program the user interface of their applications to include the consultant's logo and company information, essentially creating a private label application for the consultant. In such relationships, we do not interface directly with the end client. This "invisible vendor" relationship has increased the product offering, credibility and competitiveness of the consulting companies.
Utilizing our data gathering technology, one customer service consulting company has grown from a small, local business to a national company with clients in all 50 states. The president of the company attributes their ability to grow to our technology in three ways:
- they can quickly gather data in all 50 states;
- the ease of the data gathering enables them to spend their time helping their clients act upon the data; and
- they can gather data much more quickly and accurately than any of their competition.
They have also been able to significantly reduce their resources devoted to data gathering and use the resources they have freed up to better serve their clients.
Other consultants have us openly partner with them in both competing for new business and delivering services to their existing clients. Several consulting companies have won new contracts and saved current contracts by bringing us in to provide their clients with technological solutions no one else can offer. Again, in these relationships our client is always the lead consultant to the end customer and we follow the lead consultant very well.
If you believe that our technology can be of assistance, please call us.
Let’s explore the possibilities. We will give you names and phone numbers of consulting companies and individual consultants with whom we are currently working. You can call them and find out how well we work as partners, either behind the scenes or as a member of your team.
Let us demonstrate what services we can provide that will enable you to better serve your customers. > Back to top
