How Did I Make $60 in 45 Minutes?

Get your mind out of the gutter. This is legit. I participated in a focus group today at lunchtime. This is the third focus group that I have attended in the past year. I did a Google search with the terms: focus group seattle, and found about ten companies in this area that conduct focus groups. If they had a web site, I signed up online, but if they didn't then I just gave them a call and asked if I could be added to their database for study group participants. I now regularly receive calls from four companies. They ask screening questions to see if I'm eligible for their current studies.

I hit the jackpot with my first focus group last year. It lasted two hours and paid $200! The group met at 6:00 P.M. and they even served us dinner. The second focus group also lasted two hours, and paid $100.

I've enjoyed each of the groups I've participated in. It's fun to have somebody asking your opinion and actually listen to your response. And the money doesn't hurt either!
