- Direct mail survey: 3,000 postcards were sent by mail to Life Alert
customers, in order to get a minimum of 800 replies.
- 1,500 postcards sent to New customers
- 1,500 postcards sent to Old customers
- The sample was selected randomly from the Life Alert customer database,
in order to ensure representativeness of each group of customers.
- Sample size:
- We received 1026 replies with the following composition:
- 484 New customers (+/- 4.4% of marginal error at the 95% confidence
level)
- 542 Old customers (+/- 4.1% of marginal error at the 95% confidence
level)
- Due to the structure of the Life Alert’s customers (78% are new
customers and 22% are old customers), the data has been weighted in
order to replicate this structure in the survey results.
