Here is a list of each of the components that have been used for the past few years Incentive Program Studies from One Source. Essentially what I would like to better understand is what they mean to you and how easily they are applied to each of the manufacturers rated.
There are three questions for each: - What comes to mind when thinking about this component?
- Does it easily relate to programs from all manufacturers?
- How easy is it for you to rate the manufacturers’ programs on this component?
As you go through take just a short time to give a few words as to what you think about given each component and how well they apply to all the manufacturers. Just a few words on each compenent is all I ask for - no essays please. Just click the "Continue" button below to begin.
