How to Make Extra $$ Through
Online Focus Groups
Online Focus Groups can be a fantastic way to make extra money for a small time investment.
Not all focus groups can be done from the comfort of your own home, but most will offer flexible options.
I have personally done more than a few focus groups, some at home, but the ones that offer pretty great money are the ones that will have you go to them.
(I know, I would rather stay at home in my pajamas too.)
But, the good news is that online focus groups can give you a pretty nice chunk of change as well.
I referred a friend to a Focus group company and she qualified for a $300 paid focus group AND they came to her house to complete it.
Doesn't get much better than that!
So, what is a Paid Online Focus Group anyway?
It's basically a
glorified paid survey put on by major corporations, that allows you to get paid for your opinions.
Instead of having a one-on one survey, most of these are surveys are done in a group setting, with other participants who can join in on the discussion.
The goal is to get a pretty lively discussion started, so that the company can see how consumers think and what their preferences are when it comes to certain products or services.
And, in return for this lively
discussion, they are prepared to pay you handsomely, anywhere from
$75-$300+ and usually in cash.
Where to find paid focus groups:
So, let's get to the good stuff.
There
are some Focus groups that are available for you nationwide but
possibly the best way to get started is to do a simple Google search in
your own city.
For example, if you live in Dallas, simply go to Google (Google is best, it will give you the most results) and type in:
Dallas+ Paid Focus Groups.
They
should have a name, address and phone number, as well as a website on
which you can register.
Please be sure to research them; you can do this by simply doing another search for the Focus group company name + the term "scam" in Google.
Another thing to keep in mind is that you may
only qualify for 1-2 focus groups per year, so I wouldn't depend on this
as a way to make steady income, but, the more focus groups you sign up
for, the better chance you have of making some good money regularly.
