Try Out Product Sampling
Are you an early adopter of technology, gadgets and gizmos? Are you the first to see every blockbuster movie? Are you on the cutting edge of every fashion and fad? If you answered answered “yes” to any or all of these questions, then you are sure to love being a product tester. A product tester is a regular consumer or potential consumer who is sent a product in the mail to try out, evaluate and then report findings on a survey or product review.
Many survey sites have client corporations who desire more feedback from consumers than just an online survey alone can provide. It’s one thing to imagine how a product would work, taste, smell, or last but quite another to actually experience these product attributes first hand. When companies provide survey takers with a product to sample, they can look forward to data rich with valuable opinions and insights that can be incorporated into the product development and marketing processes. This makes the consumer experience for everyone!
Often, an opportunity to participate in a product sample will come after completing a “screener” type online survey. However, not every online survey ends with the promise of a product sample, that’s for certain. You may be asked at the end of the paid survey if you would be willing to use and evaluate a product if sent to your home. Often these products can be labeled generically so that you provide unbiased answers without the brand’s reputation influencing your opinions.
Compensation for participating in product testing is as varied as the companies that have product sample programs. Usually, the reward for trying out the product and completing a short survey is just the product itself. This is great, especially if it is something that you really like! Often, you will also be sent coupons and other incentives for purchasing the product in the future and to share with friends. Some product sampling projects that are time consuming or have lengthy paid surveys will offer additional compensation such as cash, extra reward points from the survey site, or even additional merchandise.
