Focus Pointe Global

Nice place to make some extra cash doing focus groups, in the form of a prepaid visa gift card. Sign up online to take surveys to see if you’re eligible for the focus group. You can also follow them on FB to see available studies. You’ll then recurve a call asking a few follow up questions, and checking your date/​time availability for the study.
I have only been in their office once for a focus group, and did another online chat-​type discussion another time from home. Located centrally in Center City, and easily accessible from public transportation or driving. I also believe they validate your parking ticket for free or reduced parking if you drive. The office itself is expansive, although the waiting area is a tad dirty. They do put out drinks/​food for you to have while you wait, which is probably the culprit of the stained/​dirty rug.
Be aware, if others doing the focus group with you are running late, be prepared for it not to begin on time. Personally I wish they would start on time & just not allow any late arrivals to participate, but it seems they were desperate to meet the quota of people doing the study, so doubt they’ll stop late arrivals from being able to participate.
Overall a nice place to earn some extra, quick cash. Just be prepared for it to run later than they say it will be.

You don’t want to do business with an organization like this. On Christmas Day they revealed the winners of their «Double Nexus Giveaway» contest for which winners would receive both a new phone and tablet. A couple of days later they decided not to honor their commitment and instead played it off as if they were hacked. Well… we are not stupid enough to believe that a tiny, insignificant organization like this would be hacked with a fake Google giveaway. They simply decided to backtrack on their word and not honor the giveaway. On Christmas Day nonetheless when respectable organizations all over the world are giving, not scamming. The Google PR team has been notified and will not be partnering with Focus Pointe Global again. Neither should you.

It’s really cool how this works! I just fill out a survey online, then they call me, ask a few of the same questions (I guess just to double-​check?) and then set me up with a group. They do all kinds of weird ones like where they send you a product to use for a week and then come in to talk about it, or ones that take place over the internet. For my last group, I got $ 100 just for watching a few video commercials online and then talking to a group on the phone giving my opinions. (1 hour).
If you have to go to their location it’s really nice, and they serve you refreshments and pay you after with a VISA card that has the money loaded onto it. Convenient!
The only drawback I guess is that there are a lot of different groups but I don’t always qualify. I made an account on their site though, so it’s easier to do. I gave them 5 stars though because I definitely think it’s worth it. :)

I looked over my earnings from this year for this company and was dissappointed because even though they seem to always have things available I dont think I made the amount of money that I could have made from them I love the mock jury’s because I usually make 350.00 for two days of just 8 hours
