Hello Friends,
I am conducting some research for an upcoming presentation that may help with my future employment. Your participation in this study is completely voluntary but would be a huge part in making my presentation successful.

In which case, I would like to invite you to participate in the following ice cream survey (based in the USA). In this survey, I would need approximately 50 to 100 respondents. It will take approximately 5 to 10 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

Your survey responses and information will be kept strictly confidential and will not be shared with the public. I really appreciate your time and thank you for your support. Please start with the survey now by scrolling down.


I hope to hear from you very soon as I will be presenting this Friday, April 6. In which case, I would need responses by Wednesday evening, April 4, at the latest.

Thank you again!
