Hello Everyone,

I already need help and some serious and urgent help, I'm a Marketing Postgrade student and I do research about High Fashion brand perceptions, I have a really hard time to meet some potential subjects for my focus-group which is a informal conversation around the topic and a good glass of wine! I don't need that much persons, I just need one or two women 30+, which are fashion and brand aware, who consume regularly this type of products and who happen to be available tomorrow early evening around 6.00 in Mayfair, London. I really really need help and I would be so glad if one of you, or more could read this and be interested!!! If you could just see that as some voluntary work for Luxury's sake, I would be eternally thankful, please...

thank you for having read this and maybe more,

cheers,

Pollux

If you are interested just answer on the board AND PRIVATE MESSAGE ME, I'll give you the details about the venue and everything you need to know!

Whilst I have approved the above post as I hope it is genuine, I advise members to only meet internet strangers in groups of 2, 3 or more people, however inviting 'Mayfair' sounds.

Hello Pauline, Hello Everyone,

I really do understand your concern and I hope that I can be as serious as possible, I am totally true in these lines, I really do need help, in order to be able to finish my master and get good grades, it is totally chessy from me to think that anybody can actualy trust this kind of ad for this type of thing, anyway,
if there is any hope, I'm ready to believe in it,

please I need a little bit of help,

cheers,

Pollux

Just wondering if you take WWD as they featured something on brand perceptions the other week - although I realise this can only be part of your research and that you need to chat to people. Have you considered standing on a London street corner such as Marble Arch corner or outside of Brown or Harvey Nics with a clipboard and approaching likley individuals. It's still not too cold to do this!

Thanks for the tip, I'll run to buy it tomorrow, it could always be interesting... To recruit I spent hours in New Bond Street stopping women without a chance!!!
I maybe not persuasive enough...
cheers

WWD is generally available in UK probably only as subscription. You could try the WWD site. Libraries may stock it - say London College of Fashion somewhere like that.
