Dear Small Business Owners,  
 
I am conducting a survey to see whether or not there is a demand for another bookkeeping business in Brandon. It is also a part of my marketing course.  
 
I am asking that you take a little time in answering 10 questions. I am not asking for any identification markers and the results are strictly confidential.  
 
1. How large is your business by employees?  
1-15 16-30 31-45 46-60 over 60  
 
2. Do you perform your own bookkeeping?  
 
3. How many hours a week o you spend on paper work?  
1-10 11-20 21-30 over-30  
 
4. What computer programs do you use?  
 
5. How much are you willing to pay for bookkeeping services a month?  
<:-100 100-200 200-300 400-500 over 500  
 
These next set of questions is for outsourced bookkeeping.  
 
6. Which company do you use?  
 
7. How much do you spend per month?  
<:-200 200-300 300-400 400-500 over-500  
 
8. How is the satisfaction of the service?  
1- inadequate  
2- moderately adequate  
3- satisfactory  
4- almost perfect  
5- excellent  
 
9. What other services do you pay for with bookkeeping? (i.e.: payroll, taxation, etc.)  
 
10. Why did you choose the company?  
 
 
You can send your answers to mikedevers327@yahoo.ca or private message. All answers are kept in confidence.  
 
Thank you,  
 
Mike Devers  

it would be best if you set up a survey monkey for the survey, easier for busy people to answer  
 
also you might want to also ask if current Brandon Bookkeepers are full or still looking for work and also what would business owners be looking for to set you apart, if any of that would work for what you are doing  
 
good luck
