Free Reports Added to BizRate’s Customer Feedback Program
--BizRate® Research expands its free offering to include BizAdvisor and Comments Classifier --

Los Angeles, CA (September 23, 2009) – BizRate® Research announces the expansion of its free buyer feedback program to include two new reports: the BizAdvisor and the Comments Classifier. These new reports provide online retailers with enhanced insights about buyer behavior and needs.

The two new reports are now available to all of the 4500+ retailers already participating in the BizRate® Research Point-of-Sale and Order Fulfillment Network. The BizAdvisor report helps online retailers efficiently assess and prioritize improvements to key functional areas based on their correlation to key loyalty metrics and future buying intent. BizAdvisor also allows retailers to benchmark the behavior of their buyers against the buyers of other retailers within their category in the BizRate Network. These benchmarks are drawn from approximately one million surveys collected monthly from the buyers within this network. The Comments Classifier report provides more in-depth commentary and examples within each functional area. Additionally, the reports will include data points to augment the retailer’s insights about buying behavior, such as:
· Net Loyalty Scores
· Category Benchmarking
· Correlations and Quadrant Analysis
· Buyer Demographics
· Customer Comments Classified by Tone and Functional area

“These reports provide the foundation for consumer insights development and subsequent action plans. The BizRate® Customer Feedback program is indispensible for online retailers who are serious about prioritizing improvements to their ecommerce experience based on their buyers’ needs,” stated Hayley Silver, Director of Consumer Insights, BizRate Research.

BizRate® Research provides the opportunity for online retailers to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty with its robust assortment of customer feedback tools. The recent announcement of its non-buyer survey and this latest addition of the BizAdvisor and Comments Classifier reports significantly increased the consumer insight tools available to online retailers. The foundation of the Customer Feedback services that BizRate has provided to online retailers for over 10 years, are at no cost. BizRate also offers additional services, including survey customization, for a fee.
