Apparently, Mike Hamilton and Success
Through Advertising feel that providing
current demographics to their advertising
clients is so unimportant that they allowed
http://www.ymsurveys.com/ to expire over
a month ago.
The last time I heard, it was mandatory
for every new recruit to take the survey
in order for the Success Through Advertising
scam to provide outstanding demographics
to those 5000 retailers that will be on board
through this summer.
So where are new recruits completing their
surveys now?
lol lol :head: :head:

For something that they mandated we do, they haven't even shown us the demographic results. I would like to see the results of the survey.

You mean you already forgot about the
demographics (http://www.stamediakit.com/demographics.htm) that came from the original
survey.
For a minute, I thought they had me with
ymsurvey.com being active. But that page
is just a bunch of duplicate content of the
stasite.com pages. Another SEO no-no. :nono: :head:

Thanks for the info. I've never seen the results till you showed me that link. I've just looked at the results for like 5 seconds and I can tell you that the results aren't acurate.
example: Percent of Affiliates Who Have A Home Business: 100%...i know many that do not have a home business, so this can't be 100%
If you add the race percentages together they equal 101.
Of course STA will try to make the numbers appear high. They would look like dummies going and trying to get advertisers, when they really have low demographic figures...just my opinon....
well i'm off to bed...brain is fried today...lol

Only 103, 0.5% of 20,000, affiliates has done the survey. I wonder why? :rolleyes:
Percentage who Gamble: 51% (Pretty high, isn't it? :eek: Why do we need this question? People who gamble a lot tends to spend more? :crazy: )
Back to the subject. What happen to the current survey? Not important any more? I thought STA is a serious advertisement company? :rolleyes:

No. That was 103 question survey. I dont know about you but I start losing interest in a survey if its more then 5 questions, so i doubt there is any accuracy in that whatsover. Im not sure if it was azrel or surfer who pointed out surveys of this length is useless.

Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander 1%

Oh, I can see the excuse this time.....a rounding error. A potential advertiser with STA should look at this simple mistake as a reflection of management. If they can't get percentages to sum to 100%, who knows what else could be wrong.

Thats not that big of a deal to me actually. All surveys are usually within 3% accuracy, so 1% is not that off. Especially if the percentages were rounded, which they were. Of course, on professional surveys, if you would, they normally tell you what percent accurate they are.
