  • ABF Marketing Survey Comments
    ABF Marketing Survey Jan 2018 Comments and Suggestions The objective of the survey was to get to know more about our members, their views on a number of aspects of bridge and what they want out of bridge The ABF Marketing Survey was conducted online in January 2018 and was distributed to 1,700 email addresses on the Pianola Events database which after 3% incomplete deliveries was reduced to 1,650 The email addresses were provided by the players to Pianola at mostly two major Australian congresses in Canberra or the Gold Coast - This is separate to the Pianola club database of about 60 clubs in Australia which includes all club members It is important to understand that this database was of those who attended Congresses which is a relatively small fanatical part of our “tribe ” – 70% provided their name and 56% provided additional comments There were 512 respondents or a response rate of 31% which is a very high response rate compared to industry average of 10% -14% Only 16 respondents or 1% had less than 100 Masterpoints compared to 70% of ABF members who have <100 MP Despite the length of the survey over 56% people chose to add comments which demonstrates their interest and passion for bridge The respondents were given two opportunities during the survey Do you have any suggestions on how bridge could be made better and attract new players to grow our great sport? Anything else you would like to add? There were 183 comments to the first question and a further 105 to the second for a total of 288 comments They are wide and varied and difficult to classify and I do not like to make a personal selection with its inherent bias Comments by respondents to the ABF Bridge Questionnaire January 2018 Do you have any suggestions on how bridge could be made better and attract new players to grow our great sport? 1 Strong promotion of mental and social benefits 2 Should be taught in schools or school joliday programs to entice youth players 3 Yes improve behaviour at the table.
