Every year, Transmission Digest conducts the Retail Shop Survey. This survey will take five minutes or less. The results of this survey will appear in the March edition of Transmission Digest, and should serve as a valuable benchmark for your business. 

Your responses will be kept confidential and reported only in the aggregate. If you can’t finish the survey at once, your answers will be saved, and when you return to the survey you will be brought to where you left off. Once you complete the survey, you can enter for a chance to win a $100 gift card, chosen from a variety of national retailers.
