greenfield online


synovate


ipsos


harris poll online


zoom pannel


and a few others that i cant think of off the top of my head.





btw most of those you just put .com on the end and you can go sign up. some of them are cool and zoom pannel and harris poll give you points to redeem alot of them enter you into contests. or pay you for doing some serveys.





so i guess my question is. Do you belong to any of thease websites? Have you ever gotten anything to test at home? What was it? and...thats it i think lol

Has anyone used Survey websites to get stuff to test at home?
Pinecone Research has sent me several products to be tested at home. They pay $5 for answering the initial survey, and another $5 for testing the product and answering the post-test survey. I have received cereals, new coffee products, soaps, etc. It's fun.





The rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys.





Legitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group. Pinecone Research, however, pays only $5 per survey -- you're definitely not going to be rich with that. They can give you anywhere from 1-5 at most surveys in a month.





Other companies simply ask you to answer as many research as possible, and you don't earn anything just the chance to win at a raffle (which I find lame).





The article "Earning Money from Surveys" provide a short list of legitimate market research firms and contains explanations of what to look for when joining surveys (and weeding out the fraudulent ones)

Reply:Thank you. I signed up when they sent an invite for a new panel. I will try to look for the recent email they sent and will email it to you. Report Abuse

Reply:i have tried tons of these things and everytime they just want to send you on an endless trail of questionnaires. They get paid everytime you go to a site or answer a questionnaire and you will probably never see what they promise. my advice ..dont waste your time
Reply:Don't bother.There always seems to be a catch that will cost you $$ in the long run.Not much in life is free.It's just a marketing gimmick.
Reply:I had the same experience as crow...mostly people wanting you to enter your credit card number for one thing or another!
Reply:I have %26amp; they don't really work....some of them want you to "complete offers"...... such as joining clubs with credit cards.....%26amp; you shouldn't have to do that to test a produst.
