NOW CLOSED: Innocent Insight Panel - now recruiting members* - must have a child aged 4-9

Mumsnet are going to be working with innocent, the smoothie makers, over the next year or so - there'll be competitions, information on the product and even a chance to visit 'Fruit Towers' (not Mumsnet Towers!) for competition winners.

innocent want to know what you think about their products, how they can be improved, what your children like about them etc so a major part of this project is an innocent Insight Panel which we are now looking to recruit. Sorry but this is UK only. To take part you must have at least one child aged 4-9 . It doesn't matter if you currently buy innocent or not, they are looking for both buyers and non buyers.

Panelists will be asked to take part in up to 5 projects over the course of the next year - not everyone will do all 5 projects but some will. Activities will include looking at marketing and advertising materials, helping with a recipe book, and testing products. Most will be undertaken at home followed by offering feedback on Mumsnet and some may involve getting your child's input. There will be a prize draw for every project where one panelist will win a prize to the value of £250.

If you're interested in taking part please add your details here.

If selected you will be sent a special little Innocent goody bag to say thanks in advance for taking part. The goody bag will contain a voucher for free product and some other innocent bits.
If you are not selected please do look out for further opportunities to get involved with innocent and to maybe win some prizes over the next year or so.
Thanks and good luck.
Please post any questions here.

Yes everyone should get a goodie bag.

CoffeeGoneColdAgain · 14/03/2011 12:55

Thanks Tortoise, maybe they haven't got to Yorkshire yet then haha!

craftynclothy · 14/03/2011 12:57

I'm in Yorkshire and mine came on Saturday.

RAlover · 14/03/2011 13:00

Got mine on Saturday too...........got excited as thought it was stuff I'd ordered from ebay Blush........and then more excited as had forgotten the goodie bag was coming!!
Have already written a list in my notebook.

CoffeeGoneColdAgain · 14/03/2011 13:08

Postie just been, The bag is fab, think I will use it on holiday. The notebook is great too!

herdingcats · 14/03/2011 13:12

Will use the vouchers when I go shopping this week, notebook hidden from DD or it will be full by tomorrowSmile

Magna · 14/03/2011 17:23

Thank you got mine this morning. Notebook being hidden here as well Grin

mychildrenarebarmy · 20/03/2011 13:56

I am a very popular Mummy having used the vouchers from the goody bag to buy smoothies. :o

whimsy · 21/03/2011 16:02

I'm not sure why but we've not received our goody bag :(

NewGirlHelenMumsnet · 22/03/2011 15:38

whimsy - very sorry but can't find you anywhere on our innocent panel and it doesn't look as though you applied. You are registered on the Mumsnet panel though but unfortunately there's no goody bag for that - sorry!!

whimsy · 23/03/2011 07:37

That's very strange. I had an email from MNHQ on the 11th Feb thanking me for joining the panel and asking me to complete a survey about innocent via survey monkey Confused

NewGirlHelenMumsnet · 23/03/2011 15:49

whimsy - that is strange indeed! Let me investigate and get back to you!

NewGirlHelenMumsnet · 23/03/2011 15:57

whimsy - I have uncovered the mystery! We sent the Mumsnet panel a survey about innocent on 11th Feb. The innocent panel is a separate thing which you didn't register for so alas no goody bag. Sorry again!

Grockle · 19/04/2011 16:44

Is there a feedback thread for the juice cartons?

AnnMumsnet · 20/04/2011 15:31

grockle - you'll be sent a survey via email

MinnieBar · 20/06/2011 11:11

Very late bump - but were we meant to receive a copy of the recipe book as well?? Just wondering...

NewGirlHelenMumsnet · 20/06/2011 15:19

MinnieBar - yes, you were - I'll find out when they'll be coming your way and get back to you.

MinnieBar · 20/06/2011 19:36

Oooh exciting! Thank you!

MollieO · 21/06/2011 20:11

We never received a goody bag or a recipe book. In fact although we did receive the drinks to be tested and gave feedback we've received nothing. Would it be possible to check what happened to ours too?

PaperView · 21/06/2011 20:25

I didn't get a recipe book or drinks to try, in fact i haven;t heard anything from them for a while although i did get a goody bag.

NewGirlHelenMumsnet · 22/06/2011 14:56

For all with recipe book queries - the freebie recipe books are just for the 25 testers who took part in the recipe testing. We don't know when they'll be sent out yet - we'll let you know as soon as we do. If you didn't take part in the recipe test then sorry, no freebie book for you.

MollieO - I'll let innocent know you never got your goody bag and ask them to send you another one.

PaperView - see above re: recipe book. The drinks test was again just done with a small sample of the panel which you weren't selected for - sorry!

MollieO · 22/06/2011 19:42

Thx Helen. We did the fruit juice testing and commenting on the packaging design.

ravenousbugblatterbeast · 27/06/2011 15:56

Is anything actually happening with this? I received a goody bag (2 vouchers, a fridge magnet and a notebook), completed one survey about 2 months ago, and have heard nothing since. Do they actually need this many product testers or was this just a way of getting a bit of publicity on Mumsnet boards..? Hmm

AnnMumsnet · 27/06/2011 18:42

hi Ravenous...some panel members have done other things - we'd planned to do 5 activities with the innocent panel over the course of a year or so...we've done 4 now I think so could be one more. I know they are keen to do some more work so those who'v only done one thing could well get selected for future activity. thanks

katz · 04/07/2011 19:36

i just got my recipe book - thankyou very much looks great and love the format too.
