3️⃣ Advanced . Write a short paragraph about what you learned in today’s class. Point out the most difficult thing about writing surveys according to you. Explain why.

This class was about how to do good market research, focusing on surveys and she gave us some tips on how to design our questions.

As the class pointed out and I agree, one of the hardest things to do when you are creating surveys is that you have to eliminate your bias for your product or service, you should want the best answers and those are the honest ones. Never lead your potential customers to the answers you want to hear, let them be and that way you will have more valuable information on your product.
