Default Scion Owners Wanted For Austin Focus Group on 8/1

Hey guys,

Scion is looking for some lucky Scion owners in the Austin area to be included in a research project that is going to take place on the evening of Tuesday, August 1st. You would need to show up at the location for a couple of hours on an evening, and you would even be compensated a few dollars for your time. Your opinions will be used to shape the direction of future Scion marketing programs.

Whats the catch? We are SPECIFICALLY looking for tuners that have invested several thousand dollars into their car. Driving a stock box? So sorry, but we want some trick rides so that Scion can better determine the future of performance tuning. Also, the focus group would especially love to talk to xA and xB owners, but tC and even other competing vehicle owners are welcome to apply.

They only need eleven people, so not everyone will get a chance to participate!

Interested in being involved to create a better brand? Lindsey is waiting for your email: lindsey.davis@synovate.com

MAKE SURE YOU INCLUDE YOUR NAME, CITY AND CONTACT NUMBERS!

-- Darren

hmm, few thousand dollars invested? I dunno many Scions in ATX with that much invested.

I probably have like $2500-$3000 but dunno if that's enough.

oh well, I emailed her. I'll see if I can get someone to drive my car for me (knee surgery)

she called me, and asked me some questions.

Now all I'm waiting for is confirmation from Scion corp.


Btw, they'll pay you $150 for 2 hours of discussion.
