Each time you participate in a survey, focus group, or other paid opportunity, the particular company that is giving or sponsoring the opportunity is the one that will pay you.
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!
On the other hand, maybe you get busy with other things and don't have any time to do surveys for awhile. That's perfectly fine! It's not like there's a boss breathing down your neck, or you have to worry about getting fired. You can do surveys when it's convenient for YOU.
Market research companies know that people like you and I are the lifeblood of their business. They are usually paid by large corporations to conduct surveys on their behalf, but without consumers like us to take their surveys they would be out of business in a hurry.
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.
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.
