Work From Home: A Comprehensive Guide to Self-Employment

The road from participant to researcher.

10 years ago I tried my hand at online surveys.  I would get free hotel stays and CVS gift cards but certainly wouldn't consider it a big thing.  Fast forward to 2022 where I had my first focus group.  It was like 300 dollars or something for a few hours of my time and I thought to myself "wow this is lucrative."  Since then I've tried just about every combination of focus groups and market research sites to try to make a steady stream of income.  I'm hoping that I can save you the massive headache of searching for decent paying studies.  I came to realize that if I used a bunch of different sites like the ones below, one could EASILY make 1000 dollars a month, and possibly even 3-5 thousand a month with a large amount of effort and a bit of luck.  I hate to bombard you with so much information but I promise you, it will be well worth your time if you are willing to put in the effort.  There is no shortcut to it and I really wish there was.  Some of these sites you may have heard of, some may be new.
