The Marketing Research Library of @ResearchInfo.com is now a completely member-maintained resources. No longer is there a need to rely on my slow butt to format and upload your artcles. Please read through this entire message before posting:

Who can submit articles?
Any registered forum member. If you would like to submit an article, and are not currently registered, simply click the Register button on this page.
What kind of articles are accepted?
You are welcome to post any and every marketing research-related article you can create. Studies on methodologies, reports of survey results, etc.
What kind of articles will be deleted?
There are 2 types of articles that will be deleted:

Those that are not marketing research-related.
Those that are nothing more than a blatant attempt to promote you or your company. We will allow (and, quite frankly, expect) you to include a blurb in the article about your company, but the meat of the article must contain real content.In what format (upload PDF, post text, post link, etc.) should my article be submitted?
You are free to post your article as a message, or upload an Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Word, or Microsoft Excel document. In fact, it's a good idea to do both. That way members have the option of reading them as a post, and/or downloading/printing to read later.

The articles must appear on this forum in either text or attachment format. We will not accept links to articles on other Web sites.
How many articles can I post?
As many as your little heart desires! Currently, every member has an overall storage limit of 20 MBs. If you plan to upload a lot of articles, it's a good idea to be sure they are well optimized to take up minimal space. The average initial article in the library is about 1/200 of the overall quota, so 20 MB should be plenty of storage space.
How do I attach an article to my post?
Please see the Forum FAQ (http://forum.researchinfo.com/faq.php).
What other types of posts are acceptable in this forum?
Ininital threads should all be new article submissions. Feel free to use the forum Reply button, while on a thread, to comment on and discuss these articles.

I added an article of mine, The Secrets to Better Email Invitations (http://forum.researchinfo.com/showthread.php?t=1567), to show a good formatting example. The article is in the message body, and included as an attachment.
