Market Research / Focus Groups

1971

I occasional participate in local market research focus groups.
Its probably been discussed on here somewhere already.

I regualy get sent emails about up and coming groups, alot of the time I cannot do due to work commitments.

If I post some on here, would anyone be interested?
Its usually in north london/herts area and sometimes in london.

For example this one I recieved today:
Hi
PLEASE CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH THIS DIFFICULT PROJECT

I am looking for first time mums with babies aged 3-6ths who are about
to introduce solids into their babies diet!
The groups will take place in Edgware during the day either next
Thursday or Friday.
They will last for 1 1/2hrs and each mummy will receive £35.
All together I am looking for 24 mums!!!!!!
Pleas would you be kind enough to pass this to anyone who you fell
might like to take part.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this

Please let me know if you can help

Kind regards

You obviously have to registar with the 'agency' but its easy cash in hand and sometimes its quite fun (god am I sad!)

Hi
I am working on it, just found a new web site designer and sorting out what we need to do. In the meantime if anyone wants to be considered for participation in market research group discussions (focus groups) then PM me and I'll find a colleague in your part of the country to pass your name on to.
If you live in Nottingham then you could go on my list.

Hi
I've just replied to a load of messages and then deleted them so can't check who they were from. But you should have had one from me just now. If not, please can you PM me again and include your e-mail.
I either replied via PM, or e-mailed if there was an e-mail address in the PM.

Hi
See my reply above from yesterday. Work has started on it at last and I'll keep you all posted and maybe ask for some beta testing comments.
