So..... a few days have passed since enrolling in this task but has it been worth it?!
1st of all an email confirming my acceptance and notice of bonus special prizes!
Hopefully I hadn't checked my email prior to going into work on Friday so lost out on a great opportunity to do anything. It wasn't until Saturday night that I logged in and found 3 tasks (and the special roving reporter forum) available.
Next are a few extracts of the 3 tasks as described in the forums:
Task 1: What do you think of your local store?
Check out your local store this weekend and tell us your thoughts:
• Does it look good from the outside?
• What about in the store – what do you think of the layout?
• How did you feel about the atmosphere in the store – how busy, did you feel welcome?
• And what about the information available in the store– was it clear and was it of interest to you?
We will be reviewing your store feedback on Monday and the best and most detailed report will receive a £20 Amazon voucher.
This I wrote about 5/6 posts as I went around the store in Manchester Fort, the 4 inside the City Centre (in and around the Arndale Centre) and the last store in the top floor of the Trafford Centre.
Task 2: What have you seen, heard or read recently about mobile / broadband operators
Tell us about any advertising, news articles or anything else you’ve seen or heard about on the TV, internet, radio or in newspapers, or when out and about, for mobile or broadband operators.
It would be great if you could take a pic or post a link so that we can see what you are talking about. You can also use the app to photograph and rate it when you’re out and about.
This can be for anything that catches your eye for any mobile or broadband operator brands that you see throughout the week.
Through this topic I found out that I didn't need to use their iPinion+ app and could instead simply upload images or links elsewhere (and as this was easier and faster I've not used the App yet.)
Task 3: Interview friends / family about EE
Today we would very much like you to do a 5 minute interview (okay...chat!!) with a couple of people about what they think about EE and report back.
Have they heard of EE before?
Do they know what EE sells?
What do they think of EE?
Let us know here what they had to say.
This was a quick reply after chatting to some friends and relatives.
Annoying after the massive amount of linked posts I put on the 1st topic I saw this email and thought that's it I didn't win the bonus £20 amazon voucher prize!
However in today's email I saw this (with my name as the winner!!!!!)
Roll on the next bonus prize(s) and final payment!
The last task:
Task 4: Getting social
As well as new shops and a new website, EE also has a shiny new Facebook and Twitter page.
Members and non-members of these sites can review what people are saying by clicking here:
Facebook: http://en-gb.facebook.com/ee
Twitter: http://twitter.com/EE
We’d really like your opinion on what you think about them, please can you have a look around and come back here to report back?
What do you think about the types of things EE says and does on their Facebook and/or Twitter pages? What do you think about the types of things other people say to EE? If you’d like, and are a member, try asking EE a question and see if/what EE replies.
What kind of atmosphere is there on the Facebook page, and how does that make you feel?
Is there anything that EE DON’T do on their Facebook / Twitter pages that you’d like to see, or like to see more of?
Of which I spent another 20 minutes doing,
so that's my 4 tasks done (and payment eligibility complete!)
However as the tasks seem simple and actually interesting I will/may be doing more as they get released - especially as there are easily achievable bonus prizes!
