Most paid survey opportunities require that you are at least 18 years of age, but other than that there are no specific requirements. You do not need any special qualifications or skills.
The surveys are generally intended to get your honest opinions on various topics, such as what kind of products you buy, why you choose one product over another, what you think of certain products and how much they cost, how much you spend on various products, etc.
There are plenty of survey opportunities for just about everyone. We hear from members outside the U.S. all the time who are shocked at the number of surveys available to them.
A "Focus Group" is a group of individuals selected and assembled by researchers to discuss and comment on, from personal experience, the topic that is the subject of the research. Just like surveys, you simply share your opinions and discuss them with others.
Just in the United States, companies spend over 250 Billion dollars a year trying to convince consumers to buy their products and services. That's a lot of money. And while the majority of it is spent on advertising, a portion is devoted to research. You see, understanding how people think and shop, why they buy certain products, etc. ultimately helps companies improve their products and services and make THEM more money. Knowing this, and that they won't get our help for free, companies are willing to pay people like you and me good money - up to $150 an hour! - for our opinions, because when the dust settles they know they will come out ahead and generate even more profits for themselves. So you see, this is no "scam." It actually makes a lot of sense doesn't it?
Have an extra 30 minutes in the morning before heading off to work? Do you have a few hours available in the afternoon while the kids are out playing? Or maybe it's 2am and for some reason you can't sleep? These are all perfect times to do surveys and get paid!
