I am attempting to compile statistics on business practices in the cultural
resource management industry. All replies will be held in strict confidence.
The data will be used in the preparation of an analytical paper on the CRM
industry. Although respondents will remain anonymous in all reporting, only
replies from institutional, corporate or independent ISP e-mail addresses
(i.e., NOT Yahoo, Hotmail, Netscape Mail, or other free e-mail vendors) will
be used (to prevent false and/or duplicate entries).
Please do not reply to the discussion list(s). This survey is intended to
collect quantifiable data regarding the CRM industry at-large only. To
protect the rights of respondents and their current and/or former employers,
please not include the names of individual and/or corporate employers.
