On May 6, 2008, Penton Media e-mailed invitations to participate in an online survey to a total of 5,099 subscribers of Radio selected on an nth name basis from the category Radio Station/Network. To encourage prompt response and increase the response rate overall, the following marketing research techniques were used: A drawing was held for one of four $50 Amazon.com gift certificates. A link was included on the invitation to route respondents directly to the questionnaire. The magazine name was used on the invitation to tie the study effort to the magazine. Follow-up e-mails to non-respondents were sent on May 13 and May 20, 2008 to this same group.
