Whenever I ask women about their money goals, one of the things I hear is "I would like multiple income streams but I don’t know what else I can do ''.

What they mean is that they want to earn money from different sources usually with little effort… and if that’s you that's absolutely fine… infact blog post is for you. 

I was recently featured in Closer Magazine sharing tips about savings, insurance and earning more money. I gave an example of how I got paid £115 by a market research company for my detailed opinion on sugar and diet. I was sent a few questions by email. It was completely online and took about 20 mins in total. 

However others may require shorter or longer time and some may be face to face. 

Now, if you are currently feeling the cost of living pinch, how would an extra £100 a day from a single focus group work for you? 

And if you only contributed to 3 market research sessions a week you could earn up to or even more that is £300 extra per week .. that approximately £1200 per month for sharing your opinions. 

The effortless thing about contributing to market research is that you really don’t need any new skills. Companies want to know you just as you are.

After the article was published, I shared a post on instagram and I got a flood of emails and private DM’s asking me to share more about how they too can earn more through focus groups.

How to Win

Most of these sites send out at least one campaign a day. It won’t always be a fit, so sign up to all the sites and apply to all the campaigns that are a fit. 

Don’t give up!

Your Data

Essentially these companies are paying for your data and opinion, they all have data protection guidelines they follow and they share that on their websites. Please read them thoroughly and make sure you are happy with it before you sign up.

If you are worried about spam calls you can get a different number and open a different email address for this side hustle. It’s up to you. 

Responsibility
