The Nielsen Panel Is Back!
I got a couple of interesting questions the other day: the Nielsen Panel is accepting new applicants for it’s consumer research division. First, this IS free to join. I never offer a “make money at home” option that asks for money from you to get started. Even though there may be a few reputable services that require this, there are way too many good options that don’t. Second, the Nielsen Panel is the creme de la creme of the consumer research groups–they pay the most, they offer the best swag, and they are deadly serious about what they do. Third, it takes a little time to get used to scanning everything you buy, but the rewards are fantastic and it’s a very user-friendly system. They don’t open up for new people very often. If you’re interested, apply right away. And finally, yes, The Todd and I have applied three times for this panel. Apparently, we’re never in the right zip code or age group or whatever…we never know what they’re looking for, but I’ve never heard a single negative comment from anyone involved with Nielson. Good luck!

It’s now called the National Consumer Panel. I have been a member and scanning for a year. I haven’t even earned 30,000 points yet and I’ve done every transmission and almost every survey. At this point I can’t get musch for my points and it looks like it will take years to get anything good. I’m thinking of sending my stuff back. Not sure if it’s really worth my time and energy.
