Happy Employees Help Businesses to Succeed


As a business owner, there is one primary concern on your mind – the success of your business. Ensuring the success of your business involves more than just providing a quality product or service – although that, too, is essential. It also involves keeping your employees happy.

Happy employees make productive employees, so making sure your workers are satisfied is paramount to your overall success. You can determine success through the use of surveys. There are many reasons why you should use an employee satisfaction survey to help your business succeed. They provide clear and concise answers that will give you the honest feedback you need to make any necessary changes. Surveys also help keep your employees feeling good about their jobs because they have the chance to communicate their needs to you. Employees need a way to let their employers know when something is wrong.

Surveys are anonymous, so your workers will not feel “called out” and on the spot. They will feel comfortable voicing their thoughts, without fear of repercussions. Here at Insightlink Communications, we are the survey experts you need to make sure your employees are satisfied. We offer various types of surveys that will help you get the feedback you need. Once we have the results, we will create a report for you that will help you determine where changes need to be made. You can then take the necessary actions you need to keep you workers happy and your business on the path to success. Contact us today for more information.

Have a Successful Business in the Coming Year


When was the last time you gave your employees a survey to gauge their job satisfaction? If you have not given a survey in a long time, or if you have never given a survey, you may not realize what you are missing. Employee surveys can provide employers with valuable insight into the minds of their workers.

This insight will reveal the true feelings of workers. If they are not happy on the job, the survey will find out why. When you know what is wrong with your business operations in the eyes of your employees, you can start making changes.

Offer Surveys after the Holidays


If you are looking for a good time to offer employee surveys to your employees, consider doing it after the start of the New Year. The holiday season is a stressful time for people. It is not the best time to offer a survey because some of the answers could be the result of stress.

For instance, an employee that is normally happy with their rate of pay may be feeling extra stress during the holidays. He may express dissatisfaction with his pay rate because he has extra people to shop for – not because he is truly unhappy with it. Once the holidays are gone, your employees will be feeling relieved and relaxed. They will be much more likely to offer honest, open answers. Insightlink Communications knows all there is to know about employee surveys.

We know when to give surveys. We know which questions need to be asked. We also know how to evaluate the results into useable information for you. Once you have the information, you can start determining which areas need change and which areas are fine. Since the satisfaction of your employees has a direct effect on the success of your business, surveys can provide valuable information.

When the New Year arrives, and you are finally ready to find out how your workers really feel about their jobs, contact us. Let us set you up with a quality survey that will dig deep within the minds of your employees and uncover their true feelings – good or bad.

Learn 10 Steps to Building Successful Employee Engagement


Dissatisfied employees can cost a business more than just money. It is up to the management to figure out what is causing employees to become dissatisfied and to plan a way to make the employees become more actively engaged. An actively engaged staff will create a more open and safe work environment, making it easier to work efficiently on different projects and tasks.

Actively pursuing employee engagement can result in a more productive staff. This is important for any business since engaged employees are more likely to produce high quality work. Energetically engaged employees that come into contact with customers are also more likely to be motivated to go above and beyond when it comes to helping the company build a better reputation amongst clientele.

Encouraging and pursuing employee engagement can also inspire staff members to be more creative and innovative. This is important for any business as it can lead to new and improved ideas and projects. The more creativity used to satisfy a customer or client, the more likely it will be that the client develops an ongoing relationship with the company.

Additionally, employees are more satisfied with their positions if they are being actively engaged. This assists in creating a positive work environment for all staff members, which in turn can help improve employee retention. A company which has satisfied and engaged employees usually has a lower turnover rate, creating a family-like atmosphere that inspires loyalty and commitment.

Surveys Are Not Always Equal


If you have ever taken an employee morale survey, you know that these kinds of surveys help reveal the true thoughts of employees. Through the survey, employees have the chance to let their employers know where changes need to be made. For example, if a worker is not happy with his wages, he can reveal this in an anonymous survey. The employer may think that he is paying his workers enough.

The survey will show him that he needs to find a way to improve wages. Employee surveys have been used for years. However, they have not always been created equal. There are some surveys that only provide vague information. Here at Insightlink Communications, our surveys dig much deeper. We know that employers need to understand the truth about how their workers feel. Employers need more than just general answers.

That is why we design our surveys to dig deep and uncover the things that business owners need to know. Once you have the information in front of you, it is time to start making changes. No, you may not be able to make all of the changes at once. However, you can start small and keep working on other areas. When your workers see you making improvements, they are going to feel better about their jobs.

Happy employees are more productive, because they are invested in the business. Contact us today to learn more about our surveys and let us help you get started on giving your workers a survey.
