Today we're going to talk more about free money. Yes yes, I know that there is no such thing as free money, but market research is about as close as you can get. Last night I got paid more than I do at my day job for just a few hours. All I had to do was show up and tell someone my feelings on the topic at hand.
The really interesting thing about all this is that not a lot of people know about this. It is easy cash (yes, I said cash, not check or anything, just cash in hand at the end) for telling someone how you feel about a certain topic. What I took part in last night is what is known as a focus group; a few people who meet certain criteria are chosen and put together in a room to talk about a topic for a couple hours.
There are other forms of market research, I once took part in a group that took two nights; I sat there listening to parts of songs for two hours and filled in a multiple-choice sheet about each one. Another time I was fed different versions of a chicken sandwich and wrote down my opinions on them. It doesn't matter where you live, there are opportunities to take part in market research all over the country.
And there is even a lot of stuff you can do online to make money filling out surveys. Taking surveys online for money can be risky though, there are a lot of scams and sites that just aren't legitimate, so you'll need vet any site you're interested in.
If you're interested in making money by giving your opinion, please feel free to leave comments below and I'll gladly pass along any information I have, as well as help you find what you're looking for.
