Respondents
If you would like to join our database of people and be invited to take part in market research, why not take a moment to register?
Focus groups
We recruit respondents to take part in focus groups. This small but representative sample of people is then invited to give their opinions on new products or services.
The groups are usually held at market research facilities and include a moderator and respondents, for example four to 12 people who have met the required criteria. Sessions vary in length but typically last around two hours.
To thank you for your contribution, you will be given an incentive to cover the cost of transport and your time. This is usually paid in cash and can vary from £30 to £150 depending on the type of research. In addition to this, you will be rewarded by playing a part in the development of a new product or service.
As part of the registration process, we will ask for some personal data to ensure that we only contact you for relevant focus groups. We never use your details in any other way or pass them onto other organisations and adhere closely to the Data Protection Act and rules and guidelines laid down by the Market Research Society.
Why should you become a respondent?- It’s great fun and you can meet new people.
- It’s a chance to have your say about new products.
- You get paid for your time - and contribute to future products or services.
- There’s no cost implication for you – registration is free and we do not use premium line telephone or fax numbers.
