They would like to redesign their website in order to increase online sales and bring in more profit. Problem: The low amount of daily sales.

Sample Size Helps to determine “Target Population” o Which kind of people o How many people Based on time available, budget and precision Example: You would probably choose to conduct a large sample size by distributing questionnaires on the internet to the target audience for XYZ Company.

What should you consider? Account of personal bias Misinterpretation Example: Do you enjoy the products available on our website? Answer: Yes - doesn't exactly mean they will purchase it. This questions provides no room for improvement.

Questionnaires AdvantagesDisadvantages Most questionnaires can be answered quickly They are a relatively inexpensive of gathering data from a large number of individuals Anonymity, therefore respondents are more likely to be truthful Responses can be tabulated quickly Number of respondents are low There’s no guarantee an individual will answer or expand on all the questions Tend to be inflexible. There’s no opportunity for the systems analyst to obtain voluntary information from individuals or to reword questions that may have been misinterpreted It’s not possible for the systems analyst to observe and analyze the respondent’s body language No immediate opportunity to clarify a vague or incomplete answer to any question Good questions are difficult to prepare.
