#26 of 500 Oh, yes.... by isellhondas Aug 23, 2003 (1:07 pm)
One bad survey can do this. It can also cause an entire store to miss President's Award.   I have had mean spirited people give me bad surveys I did not deserve.   I have also had customers (very few)where I was never able to win them over...no rapport at all.   These people are the cold fish. They never smile or show emotion. They are neither happy nor unhappy.   These are the surveys I fear the most.   I would MUCH rather not sell a car than risk a lousy survey!

When we bought the Protege, the salesman kept insisting on a good score. I rated him and the dealership b/w 7-9 for the different criterias. Never gave anything less than a 7 or higher than a 9 as I was satisfied with the whole process - unless someone sells me a car for invoice right away without haggling, I don't see how I can give a 10.   Now I read this thread and feel bad about it - I didn't know anything less than a 10 mean a 0... VERY idiotic scoring criteria IMO.   I am studying to be a teacher - maybe that has something to do with the score as a previous poster was saying...   Dinu

He never told me anything less than a 10 means a 0 either...   Dinu

My Honda buying experience was a disappointment. The car is fine(02 civic si), the paperwork got screwed up and I didn't realize the problem until after I had already completed the phone survey. Guarantees that the only way I'll ever buy a car from this salesman again is out of spite and I'll make it a point to give across the board failing grades on every question (even if he redeems himself next time around).

isellhondas, i recently received both a phone survey and a rather lengthy survey by mail from Honda. am i the exception to the new rule? i wonder...   of course, i was able to rate the experience first of the place where i purchased my ODY (by phone) and then again via mail, but MUCH more interesting i think by mail, i was also given the opportunity to rate two of the dealerships where i didn't purchase my car.   btw, not all engineers are stingy with their ratings. i was able to rate the dealership and the experience where i purchased the car with 5s, and they deserved it.   may all your customers be non-grinders, non-engineers, non-teachers and young.
#31 of 500 Anyone disagree that the process by landru2 Aug 23, 2003 (4:12 pm)
has become a little twisted when someone threatens to buy again because of the poor service they received?

Yeah that threw me too. On any new vehicle purchase on the very times I have had problems I contact the dealership to fix it before I do the survey. I've never had any problems on completed purchases that weren't fixed on the first contact. I just thought that was the norm.

Better to pass on the deal with the buyer who could slaughter you on the survey.   A similar thing happened to me years ago when the life insurance company passed on a lead to me. The guy bought the policy, but then lapsed it by not paying the subsequent premiums. It ended up costing me over $5K in a profit-sharing incentive program, about 25x what I got paid. I would have better off either by NOT writing the business, or paying the balance of the first-year premium out of my pocket. That would have saved my persistency ratio and qualified me for the profit-sharing.
