How can you increase your survey response rate?
To increase survey response rates, make the survey process as simple as possible by keeping questions to a minimum and ensuring mobile-friendly design. Offer incentives such as discounts, gift cards, or prize drawings to motivate participation. Personalize survey invitations by using recipients' names and explaining how their feedback will be used. Follow up with non-responders through friendly reminders, use professional email addresses to avoid being marked as spam, and be transparent about survey length and content to help potential respondents decide to participate.

The test-and-learn approach is the 'cheat code' for effective marketing as it allows brands to determine what truly works in their specific context. Using A/B test methodology, marketers can allocate 10-20% of their budget to testing because what works for brand A may not work for brand B, even within the same category or industry. This approach becomes particularly powerful when combined with first-party data (which Suchi calls 'the king') and robust measurement systems. By systematically testing across different targeting methods—contextual, audience, and native formats—brands can adapt their strategies in real-time based on actual performance data. As audience behaviors continuously change and seasonal factors like Diwali affect campaign effectiveness, this methodology enables marketers to pivot quickly for optimal results.

Collecting first-party data helps maximize marketing results across all channels by allowing marketers to fine-tune their strategies more effectively than relying on third-party data.

The most effective methods for collecting first-party data include tools and calculators, followed by quizzes and surveys. Once collected, this data should be leveraged through email and SMS communications. When combining both organic and paid marketing strategies with first-party data, businesses can achieve comprehensive funnel growth and maximize their marketing effectiveness.
