    WANTED: Testers

    You may remember a while back I was asking for people to complete questionnaires to help me in a business venture. Many thanks to all those that responded, by the way.

    I'm now here to make you an offer you can't refuse. Maybe.

    I'm looking to recruit some product testers: 4 at this stage, possibly increasing after that.

    The deal is that I provide you with some decent fell running equipment (the plan is...for free!), and in return you give me your thoughts and feedback to use in product reviews. It will also be relayed to the manufacturers to possibly help in the design of future equipment.

    The products will come from various brands: I'm not the manufacturer, so the reviews can be honest.

    I am looking for a bit of a cross-section, so male and female, front-runners and plodders. All welcome.

    If you are interested, please e-mail me (address below) with a few details about yourself:

    Name
    Age
    Location
    Brief running history
    Current level of running
    Running plans for the coming year

    If you are selected, I will get in touch to go through a few more details of the arrangement with you.

    As before, this assumes I do finally get to trade. If not all bets are off!! The reason I'm doing this now instead of waiting is that I would like to launch with a few reviews already in place.

    Look forward to your responses - any queries you can either e-mail or reply to this thread.

    Norbert

    Frequent but moderate workouts on a consistent basis are the key to success

    Re: WANTED: Testers

    Thanks for all the responses so far. If nothing else, it's good to see the variety of experience out there!

    Just to make things a bit more transparent, I'd better explain how I'll select my testers.

    1) I'll continue to accept e-mails until the 31st of May.
    2) Based on your details, I'll pick 4 that give me the best mix of experience (purely subjective, sorry).
    3) I'll e-mail all who responded by the 7th June to let you know if you're in or not, and if so, more detail about how it'll work.

    Look forward to seeing plenty more e-mails!

    Quick look at peoples profiles and previous posts will give all that info anyway.

    Good luck to them if they try to go to open a bank account with my running ambitions in hand. I can imagine, like me they will come back very empty handed.
