Grapevine Surverys Provides Companies with Cutting-Edge Survey Software for Second Quarter Reports

Online, July 30, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Large and small strategically-managed companies are currently using the unique survey software provided by Grapevine Surveys (www.grapevinesurveys.com) to conduct end-of-quarter reports for both customer and employee feedback.

Many businesses use the quarterly system to plan purchases and objectives, reporting and evaluating their financial maneuvers on a three month basis. The end of June marked the end of the second quarter of 2013, and businesses that use this strategic system are benefiting from conducting employee satisfaction surveys at the quarter's end.

Employee surveys are a communicative means between lower and higher level employees, and are a great way for upper-level managers to gain insight into correlations between happy employees and the financial success of the business. For companies using the quarterly system, there is no better time to do this than now, as the quarter has just ended and quarterly reports are currently being created and analyzed.

There are good reasons to conduct customer surveys as well. For example, in many industries the operational landscape is changing to reflect the global climate change. As a result, more and more businesses are changing their operations to become greener, and the approach is often taken for purposes of public appeal. Some examples of large corporations that have gone greener are:

* General Electric: Selling their "Ecomagintion" products and cleaning up their own pollution.
* McDonald's: Working with PETA on systematically reforming its business practices.
* Starbucks Coffee: Partnering with environmental organizations and using a coffee cup sleeve made of recycled paper.
* Walmart: Launched a long-term plan to try and power its stores with renewable energy sources.

These companies' green initiatives are a proof of the increasing public shift toward greener living. If the big corporations are taking this approach for public relations then it is likely a good practice for smaller businesses of all sizes. Some companies that have gone green are using Grapevine's customer survey software to determine the effectiveness of their green shift.

Grapevine provides its customers with the perfect survey platform for conducting these questionnaires. Grapevine's industry leading software makes survey-analysis easy by providing customizable results in graph and chart form in all popular file formats. Companies who have used Grapevine Surveys have reported higher employee retention rates, lower absenteeism, improved productivity, and better morale.
