Congratulation 
You are one of the 90 people selected
Dear [username],
In the past six months you have filled out our survey ‘What is my enneagram type?’. It was part of an ongoing behavioural study and we are pleased to inform you are one of the 90 people out of all the reaction that have been selected to participate in the second part of the study!!! We hope you will join us, please let us know with the button below! *
Sooo, here is a bit more information. The second part of our study is an observation part. For this part of the study we have rented ten houses on the Cayman Islands. Each house will have nine people living in it. As you already know from the test, there are nine enneagram types. The first nine houses are filled with nine people of the same type and the tenth house will be a mix of all the nine different types. We will bother you, and your housemates, with some tests, puzzles and challenges every now and then to see how the different houses will score on them. Though, we promise, it will not happen more than twice a day. The assignments can be individual but also group wise. It can be physical things or brain teasers. None the less: you are always free to refuse participation of them!
Now, here is why you would participate. First of all, you get a fully paid free stay in a luxurious mansion on the Cayman Islands. Second, each day you stay in the mansion you will get 100 euro. That is 3.100 euro for a month, completely tax free! On top of that you can get a bonus of max 100 euro per assignment that you complete, regardless of the results. Fourth, it would be a great chance to get to know some new people that you would otherwise have never met. And last but not least this is a one time in your life opportunity!
In the attachments you will find more information about the mansion you will be staying. Furthermore, the results of our study so far and what we wish to accomplish with the second part is added to this e-mail. But, without any further ado, please click on the button below to confirm your participation! *
We hope to see you soon!
Kind regards,
TNS European Behaviour Studies Consortium
*Due to Covid-constrictions: participation is only possible if you are able to hand over a negative test-result from a licensed place. Click here to find a place, close to your location.
It doesn’t matter when, or why, you did the test. Maybe you filled it out at 3AM because you were bored out of your mind and couldn’t sleep? Maybe you filled it out because all your friends had, and were pressuring you to do it as well? Perhaps you thought this might be the answer why yet another guy didn’t show up for the date.? Or you filled it out because your boss wanted it, or it was needed for a course you followed.? Whatever the reason was, all that matter that you did fill out that test in the past half year. And now you have received this e-mail, or is it spam? Again, whatever you think of the message doesn’t really matter, what does matter is that you pressed that button (and were able to give off a negative covid-test) and are now sitting in this plane directed to the Cayman Island to discover which other eight fortunate souls you are gonna share a house with! So, have a nice stay!!!
