Paid Focus Groups--Western United States. - Just Updated.

Research companies sometimes hold focus groups to gather information from a specific market (like people with cats) on new or existing products (like cat toys). Research companies conduct these focus groups because they want to see how useful, and therefore how profitable, a product can be. Because this is so important to these companies, they are often willing to pay participants a sum of money for their time.

Focus groups usually have a maximum number of individuals that they can allow to participate. Most of the listings here will ask you to email or call to provide certain demographical information (age, gender, occupation, income) to see if you are part of the market the group focuses on. This is called screening. They don't want an 87-year-old man for a focus group on skateboards. If you're not comfortable giving this information, then you should probably look into other sources of extra income, like paid surveys. Focus groups range in amount paid and length of time, but most pay between $80 and $100 for two or three hours of your time.

All listings are for focus groups in their respective areas. Please refer to each listing for information on how to apply, requirements, dates, and payments.
