Ways to get PAID for Your Opinions


Have you ever been paid for your opinions?

         CORE4 research offers multiple ways for you to earn a little extra spending money simply by sharing your thoughts and opinions.  A few of those opportunities include focus groups, concept labs, and taste testings. 

focus-groupFocus Groups - focus groups are interactive, small group discussions in which you will be asked to share your feelings, attitudes, opinions, and beliefs in response to a given topic. Focus groups generally last for about an hour and half to two hours and take place in our research facility or a focus group room at another specified location.  Upon the completion of the focus group you will be given monetary compensation for your time. 

concept-labConcept Labs - similar to focus groups, concepts labs are conducted in an interactive group setting in which we will be gathering your thoughts and opinions on new product ideas, product name options, or packaging concepts.  During the testing, a panel of experts will observe your discussions and incorporate your feedback into designs that will be tested for future use.

taste-testingTaste Testings - also similar to a focus group, taste testings are used to gain your thoughts and opinions on potential new food products or flavorings.  Our facility offers a commercial kitchen and tasting center with space for safely preparing, storing, and serving food that YOU will get to try for the very first time!  A registered Dietician will assist in administering the food that will be tasted before the actual taste testing occurs.  


Would you like to be paid to shop?

Believe it or not, it is possible to make money while shopping! Participating in a shop-a-long is a way for you to earn money as you shop.

shop-alongs
Shop-Alongs - shop-a-longs take place at either a specific retailer or research facility. During a shop-along, a skilled researcher will present you with a hypothetical shopping activity of which you will be paid upon completion.  During the activity the researcher will shop alongside of you asking questions and observing your behavior in order to better understand how you shop for and interact with products.  After the shop-a-long has been completed, you are not expected to purchase the items you selected during your shopping activity.
