Anokhi Magazine Online Survey

Online Magazine Survey

We are interested in YOU, and what you think and feel about a multitude of issues: your opinion, your special interests and perceptions. We are seeking your views on some future directions to assist us in providing you, the reader, with a superior magazine. The survey will take approximately 12 to15 minutes for you to complete.

As a token of our appreciation for your assistance in completing our Readers Survey, you will automatically be eligible for our monthly draw. Each month, we will draw the names of three (3) people who have completed and submitted this form, and they will receive a Free 1 Year subscription to ANOKHI Magazine.

To get a closer look at our valued readers, we invite you to become a part of our ANOKHI Magazine Readers Advisory Panel. From time to time, ANOKHI Magazine will send selected members of our ANOKHI Readers Advisory Panel, questionnaires that cover a range of topics.

As thanks for your assistance and support we will hold a 'Special' Readers Advisory Panel draw every month and award one lucky panel member an ANOKHI Magazine 'Gift Basket' containing sample products from our advertiser's including cosmetics, perfumes, after shaves, colognes, discount coupons off a host of other products and services, plus a free subscription to ANOKHI Magazine.

The following survey is easy to complete. All you are required to do is answer the following questions as accurately as you can. Please remember, there are no right or wrong answers. Just complete the information that is applicable to you.
