We have talked about Delve Marketing Research but thought I would add a few more opportunities to the list of research companies in the area that pay you to review products or attend focus groups.
I have attended several focus groups at Petersons Marketing Research. Some are quite easy some have a little bit of homework depending on how much you will be paid for the group. The largest amount I have made with Petersons is $200.00. Not bad for a few hours worth of work.
Superior Surveys of St. Louis:
Surperior Surveys of St. Louis was recommend by a STL Mommy Reader. I have not used Superior Surveys in the past but I have registered for their Focus Groups.
Neito Research:
I also have not used Neito Research in the past but you can call 1-888-412-5552 to register. They provide diaper and wipes research opportunities.
Hatch STL provides focus groups and research. One STL Mommy reader taste tested twinkies for $50.00! Not a bad deal!
I have not used this company but they do offer focus groups.
If you have additional comments or Research companies that you use or would like to recommend please leave a comment or e-mail me at stmommy (at) gmail (dot) com
Thanks Courtney and Mrs. Cowan!

We have had nothing but trouble with Hatch… One successful survey, our first. After that, it's been a series of leaving messages when they call us, and they never get back to us. Twice now, when they have managed to call us, they have cancelled the survey we spent 20+ mins screening for, including one that my husband took a day off for midweek. They let us know shortly before. Yesterday, I spent quite some time on the phone, got in the survey, got my date and time etc…. only to be left a message within the hour that someone else had taken the same spot, so I was back out – but that they'd keep me in mind for later surveys.
On the other side – Delve is *wonderful* to work with, imo. Keep in mind they pay by check, not cash, but are warm and polite, they stick to what they say will happen, pay you as promised, and dont cancel at the last minute. Much less frustrating!
