Market research is very important to businesses, brands and organisations as it allows them to speak directly to the people who use their products – people like you!
When you take part in market research online (such as through online focus groups and online communities), market researchers can find out your thoughts about a particular product or service.
They can then send this information back to the client who produces and sells those products and services, and they’ll use your feedback to make important changes to the way they do things.
And the best part is – you can get paid for market research online!
Online market research is more important than ever before
Face-to-face market research (such as focus groups and accompanied shops) have some amazing benefits and are great fun to take part in. Following the coronavirus pandemic, however, many researchers and participants have discovered the benefits of market research taking place online!
Online market research, including online interviews, focus groups and online communities, has meant that market researchers can still carry out their research projects and gain the insights they need to improve the products and services you love.
What’s more, you can often take part at times that suit you from the comfort of your own home!
Read on to find out more about the different kinds of research happening out there now, and how you can get paid for market research online:
