J.D. Power sent me a survey

[boomerang]

J.D. Power sent me a dollar to fill out an 8 page survey on a recent car purchase.

Now, I'm guessing that Mr. Power probably has a boat-load of money, but he thinks my time is only worth $1.

Should I bother to contact them and tell them that I would be happy to fill out their survey, but that it will cost them $150.66 more? My rate for consulting work is $260 Hr.

Somehow, I think I would be wasting my time. Actually, they'd owe me for that time too!

And what kind of consulting work is you to do

Guilt marketing.

Trying to make you feel guilty for keeping the dollar without filling out the survey. Send it back with a strongly worded letter about how insulting it is.

I kept my dollar and threw the rest in the trash
