Today I structured and published my on-line questionnaire to distribute to a variety of relevant professionals as part of my primary research. I will try to distribute to as many participants as possible, nonetheless I want to ensure the participants will have constructuve and insightful knowledge to share, therefore it may be a case of quality rather than quantity.
