If you received an invited to participate in the Subaru Research Ning Network – Welcome! We hope you will participate. This blog has several different posts about the project; who is doing it, moderating, and directions to join us…so please check out the other posts for more information. But here is some quick information about the project.
What is it?
The Subaru Research Ning Network Project is an online private Ning (mini-social network). On this private Ning we are asking people to complete a couple of homework assignments. These assignments are telling us a little about you, what you think of Subaru, what you think of some current trends that are happening in the world. These assignments are done in blog format all within the private Ning…only those invited can see what is going on.
Who is doing it?
Carmichael Lynch is the advertising agency that works with Subaru of America for North American advertising efforts. Herb Sawyer and Laura Scobie work for Carmichael Lynch and are moderating/coordinating this project.
Why are you doing it?
To learn about Subaru consumers. This project is strictly for learning about consumers…not a hidden viral campaign.
You mentioned $100…I’m interested, how do I participate?
Yes, we are paying a $100 dollar completion incentive through PayPal, and only through PayPal. This incentive is for completing all the assignments inside the private Ning. We have a limited number of paying slots. Once those are used, the money is gone. But if you still want to participate even after the money is gone…you are more than welcome to join us!
To participate you need to be invited into the Ning. To do that you need to email Subaru.research.gpsoa@clynch.com with your invite copy/pasted in the email. You can also leave a comment on this post so that we can email you. And you can email us through this blog.
We look forward to seeing you on our Ning network!
Update: The email is not working. Please email me directly, herb.sawyer@clynch.com
