How Did You Hear of Us?

 

 

Look Carefully

Hehe that's good.

 

I've always liked to put odd/humourous items for 'How did you hear about us?' options. Sometimes they're in the same theme as the niche of the site, eg for bird watching site the obvious one would be "A little bird told me".

 

I think they can add a bit of fun and make people smile. Most businesses though are too serious so don't go for it (mostly because their marketing departments won't find the answers useful - boring people).

Totally love to play with clients sites to add a little humour or a personal touch. The best bit is most have no idea, makes it more fun. I have a Tardis illustration as part of a background cityscape, and the client loves the site and still 18 months later can't see it but site feedback wise I've had 16 people who had to say they loved the Tardis as they're big Dr Who fans

That's such a great idea to put some options into play! Will keep your customer engaged and will put your reputation up.

Original idea.
