that's what focus groups and surveys like this are for, to let the guys running things know how potential customers feel about their services.

That is incorrect.

IAC owns Service Magic and click on the following link to see what other internet data scarping sites they own.

http://www.iac.com/Our-Businesses/ServiceMagic



Hanley Wood has an affiliate arrangement with Service Magic, which entitles them to receive a percentage of the lead fees generated when someone utilizes a link via a Hanley Wood Site to eventually wind up making a purchace of the services offered by Service Magic.
