Curse of the research-ruining subject line

Place this in the ‘always check your mailouts before you push send’ category. We received an email from a Sydney-based market research company called The Seed asking us to fill in a survey being run on behalf of a “major out-of-home media company” that needed to remain secret because knowing its identity could influence the answers and compromise the findings. Unfortunately, despite an explanation for the anonymity in the body of the email, the subject line read: Adshel benchmark survey 2010. Whoopsie daisies. There but for the grace of God go us. In discussion with Adshel, the survey has been recalled and the research has been canned. But, on the plus side, The Seed is still honouring its commitment to the prize draw of 10x $100 Westfield vouchers.
