What issues do newsagents think the ANF should work on?

I have created a single-question survey providing newsagents an opportunity to rank what they think the ANF should work on. I’ll leave the survey open for a few days. To participate in the survey please click here. FYI the survey software allows one response per computer. Also, the survey software randomises the 17 options for each respondent – your survey questions will be in a different sequence to others.

Note – the ranking is dynamic. Each time you make a selection next to a number the list changes. Click DONE when you are done.

    Was a bit difficult to choose 1 to 15, some of the answers could be ranked in groups of equal importance. Will be interesting though to see the results.

    Mark,
    I completed but with hindsight my requirements from the ANF as Distribution Only may be different from a Retailers. Maybe a question to separate out HD and Retail?

    John, that went thru my mind too when completing survey but we do both and they are equally important.

    Jenny and John, I’m retail only and thought the same about differentiating but realize that both are just as important as the other. I know distribution faces challenges just as much as retail does. I’d like the associations to acknowledge both.

    I meant to add though, I’m grateful to Mark for posting such things. I only hope the “powers that be” can respond…….

    At 17 questions I had to stop somewhere. There is a question on fees and I felt that captured a key distribution only issue.

    I accept that my list is by no means complete. It is designed to give visibility to priorities that may not have been explored thus far.

    Although only retail now, I ranked the distribution question highest because I think it effects the whole industry, retail included. It’s a domino effect.

    They’re not a very thoughtful organisation. Their response to input from newsgaents is generally quite superificial. I hope that this survey really clarified what it is that newsganecies expect from associations.
