Required Results from the survey process

Prerequisites of the actual Senior Approved Certification ...

The survey is qualitative in nature, it is not quantitative nor is it comparative. The survey results will reveal specifically what your clients' perception is of your service and or product line.

Our focus is on assisting seniors by connecting them to Excellent companies that have, through our process, proven that it is indeed a safe reliable service to contract with.

It is this high lofty goal of protecting our precious elderly from harm that we require a minimum of a 90% approval rating directly from your client base.

We also require a minimum of a 70% return ratio on the survey process. We acknowledge that most survey companies boast a 23% - 24% return ratio as successful but after nearly 5 years of issuing surveys, we have averaged a 92% return ratio and so can safely require the 70%.
