Conducting a compensation survey, wage survey, benefits survey or salary survey can provide your members with the following advantages:
	Measuring compensation provides much-needed feedback from the "real world", beyond the anecdotes of personal experience.
Quote of the moment: “It is easier to judge a person’s mental capacity by his questions than by his answers.” – Le Duc de Lévis, (d. 1830)	Quantifying and qualifying compensation for an industry can help employers effectively attract and retain the most qualified employees at the most competitive rates. This reduces costly turnover and unnecessary wage expenses. Detailed analysis of the compensation mix can help organizations offer employees productive incentives, helping the organization attain or exceed its goals.
	Professional societies can measure compensation for their sectors. This information can assist members and potential members with career and educational decisions and can quantify the impact of professional credentials and other factors on earning potential.
