Hi all (originally to Vanderbilt Concert Choir),
Thought you might be interested in this focus group for Nissan. I work for this person and she is a professor over at Owen. You get $50 and free lunch for an hour and a half of discussion. I will be driving over there so up to four can join me. Please read over the details and let me know ASAP!

Here’s the info. I really need a bunch of people to do this! Thanks.

The head of international marketing for Nissan is having a marketing conference for all Nissan marketing heads from all over the world, plus their ad agencies and media buyers, at Opry Mills Nov. 8 through 10. On Thursday, Nov. 9th, from 10:30 to noon, they want to have a panel of Vanderbilt undergrad and MBA students to discuss how young consumers use emerging media (MP3, DVR, text messaging, myspace.com, etc.) in order to better connect with the youth market. Nissan will pay participants $50, plus a free lunch (and chance to meet Nissan executives, but I’m guessing that’ll be a bigger deal to MBA students, rather than you folks). Anyhow, my job is to find a diverse group of undergrads and MBA students to fill the panel. I need 7 undergrads, equally split male/female, and hopefully not all white. I’m approaching you all first, because I know you. Any interest? Any friends who might be interested? The panelists need to be well-spoken and into these techy things in order to make a contribution to the discussion. Please let me know ASAP, as I’m facing a time deadline (obviously).
