Hi Everyone...... 

Please help me..... I need a HUGE favour from everyone who can spare three minutes....

My final project for college is due in 2 weeks, after two long horrible
part-time years!
I have to look at how effective word of mouth communication is from a marketing point of view. I couldn't think what to base it on until we were in Galway (when I should have been doing it instead!!) and I thought I might as well base it on BM's.

I have written a short online questionnaire and I need as many people as
possible to complete it please - it'll only take a minute or two I promise!
The sooner I get this project in, the sooner I can get back to fixing up the
316i!!... still have some nasty roof to tackle with my marigolds!!

To say thanks, one person out of all those who answer the questions will win abottle of Meguiars NXT polish, a pack of applicators…… and a surprise

P.S. JohnH is automatically excluded..... sorry John – you still have to do the questionnaire though…..
 

Here's the link


http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=32661158584 -  

 Thanks a million in advance… really appreciate the help!!

Dee*

 

PS: Mods, I hope I haven't broken any rules here. Please let me know if I have.

Thanks

Dee*

Appealing to our lust for Megs was a stroke of genius!

Will you be sharing the results with us? (I'm thinking Dilbert-style powerpoint presentation! )

Good luck with the project!

Ah yes - see they say everyone has one moment of genius in their life.... that might've been mine!

Will definitely make a lovely presentation of all results..... pie charts, bar graphs, zigzaggy lines etc..... 

With reference to the piccies  put some more of the 'renovation' day photos up last night..... as you can see John has rendered seats in cars completely unnessary!!!

Will have some new photos up after the weekend I hope. Got car buffed about two weeks ago - huge difference, but couldn't do anything about the bird s**t enduced paint corrosion....

Eamo - I've just realised what you meant re the Moderator listing - at one thirty last night it slipped through the net. Thanks for spotting that for me! Hopefully I should be able to add that in later ;0)

You should move this the general area and then the club would get a good handle on how people use the forum!

Makes me think though - I wonder if the winner notice if I swapped those nice new applicator pads for the tatty used ones I have at home? And that bottle of wax is nice and full too ....

ah now here.... you'll ruin the surprise!!! Not only will getting the used pair of marigolds (one careful lady owner!!) send the lucky winner into a state of euphoria, but if they find out they get a half used pot of meguiars and an opened pack of 6 month old applicators AS WELL....
All I can say is I'm not being held responsible for their actions.... it might just push them over the edge!!!

Firstly.... A HUGE thank you to everyone who answered my survey -  it was a great help!Arms Out

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for.......

The draw to select the winner of the Meguiars was held this morning. The names of everyone who took part (except JohnH) were put into a cereal bowl (move over corn flakes) and the independent selector (my mum) pulled out the winner.

So a big congratulations and thank you to bmmad!!!!!! I'll pm you to get address etc to get the Meguiars (and the surprise!) to you.

Thanks again everyone, once I've managed to put the results into a fairly readable format, I'll post them up!

At least it went to someone who needs it!

BMmad; 2 quick questions for you.

1) how do put a pic into your profile (underneath each post)

2) what happened the wheels from your car on the picture?  It looks like it belongs on Back to the Future 2!!!
