Coming up: Recruiting more members to be giffgaff pioneers

amy_b_d

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all well and enjoying this fabulous weather.

I wanted to let you all know that we’re going to run a new giffgaff pioneers recruitment campaign via email. We know that some people sadly leave giffgaff and that means we can no longer invite them to take part in any product testing or take any surveys. But we also have lots of new members joining giffgaff too and it would be great for them to get involved too.

The reason why I’m letting you know is that we will send this recruitment email to a random sample of our member base - new and old members, all around the UK. So if you would like to guarantee an invite, let me know in this thread and I’ll make sure you get an email to sign up.

If you can let me know by Sunday 28 of June, that would be great.

And please be aware that if you are opted out of receiving marketing emails from giffgaff, then we can’t send you this email.

We have a lot of amazing projects and research opportunities coming up and I can’t wait to be collaborating with you in the future. 🙂

If you’re new and not sure what giffgaff pioneers is, then stick around to find out.

giffgaff pioneers is a community of members who will help shape the future of giffgaff. These pioneering members have been helping us through polls and surveys, testing new website journeys, giving feedback and ideas on the giffgaff app, as well as being featured in our brand campaigns. They’re a wonderful bunch and they really do bring our run by you ethos to life.

If that’s sparked an interest in wanting to shape the future of your mobile network, then let me know in this thread. 🙂

Thanks, everyone. Keep safe.

amy_b_d Hi Amy,

I’ve been a Pioneer both here and on the FB group for a while so it’ll be good to see a few fresh faces won’t it 🙂

mrjeeves

amy_b_d

Yes please!! 🙂

I've always wondered what had to be done to join this (and now I know how), so being given the opportunity to join will be fab.

My opinion matches @i_am_sy's

I would like to be opted in to everything that I'm not already opted into haha 😃

houndontheloose

amy_b_d I’m interested in receiving this email.

bazthebear2

amy_b_d Yes can we join please

mighty_cast

amy_b_d Yes please.

harrrrrry

mrjeeves Is there something preventing me from becoming a pioneer?

If you have managed to post here, that presumably means you’re already on the pioneer list.

But in case you’re not already on the SR list, the opening post says

amy_b_d we will send this recruitment email to a random sample of our member base - new and old members, all around the UK

So perhaps you’re just not random enough 😮

I’d love to try, maybe you’ll find me skills useful in some ways. 😁

amy_b_d this sounds awesome I am bit late reading it sorry but I think it is a brilliant idea😊

Do existing pioneers need to re-opt-in? _{_🤡}

amy_b_d

jesi23 Not necessarily. If you’re still opted in to marketing, you should still be receiving emails from us relating to pioneers projects. 🙂 So there’s no need to re-opt in.

It’s so lovely to hear more people wanting to get involved. I’ll make sure we pop you in the mailing list.

Exactly what I was thinking 🙂

Bit late I missed this one…. Pity did a good job on your beta app 😁

That’s either genius or is going to bite you in the wotsit 🤣

addact

I would like to join also. I have participated in a number of such events through kmichael, but it’s time to go alone. Many thanks.

kathleen414

amy_b_d that’s good to hear 🧡
Maybe worth adding a link for anyone who wants to join in , to the opt in to marketing
In settings
I’m looking forward to hearing from you and them
I hope we get some members as well 😊

Sorry but this is ambiguous. Are existing pioneers automatically included or are you asking them to post here?

dtuxcomp

kathleen414 Good thinking, that would simplify things wouldn’t it.

I’m sure there will be a direct link but this is where I find it - https://www.giffgaff.com/profile/details - scroll down to Contact permissions and click / tap the Open button.

Me too

Morning @amy_b_d
Iam in again 😁

jesi23

anth006 Are existing pioneers automatically included or are you asking them to post here

Looks like it doesn’t hurt to post just to remind Amy we are still alive and willing! As long as we are still subscribed to receive emails from marketing, etcetera we shouldn’t need to re-opt-in, but it doesn’t hurt!

I find also that the more persons who opt-in, the more who are likely to see the thread and opt-in themselves. Like @i_am_sy said, if you opt-in to everything, at least you leave others in no doubt! _{_🤡}

anth006

jesi23 l don’t disagree but I’d rather have seen a post saying if you are already a pioneer you are already opted in or asking existing pioneers to post if they wish to continue.

jesi23

anth006

If you are on the ball, you post regardless, like I did, I guess. I ‘assume’ nothing (and everything) and as a relatively ‘older’ member, figure it never hurts to remind these young Community Specialists/giffstaffers/Educators that I still exist and am interested!

It is bad enough receiving the surveys noticing that my data-only-device has sent no text messages and made no phone calls in the last fifteen days 🤣 (so, where have I gone?) … _{_🤡}

Hey Anth, I hope you’re well. That’s a nice idea to be honest. I’ll keep this in mind for when I’ll be looking at doing another recruitment drive. In fact, there is 1 survey coming up for giffgaff pioneers to tell me what new areas they will want to get involved in. I’ll be sure to share this in the group soon.

Did you want to join the giffgaff pioneer community?

Keep safe! 🙂
