Trend Research regularly invites members of the general public or those within certain industries or occupations to participate in market research studies. On an ongoing basis, we look for people who would be interested in participating in focus groups, website testing, on-line interviews, panels or on-line focus groups. These research sessions are informal discussions in which you are asked to give your honest opinions about the topic issue. Focus groups or interviews usually last one to two hours, depending on the format. Individuals often receive a cash honorarium or other gifts as a token of appreciation for their time and participation in the research.

Once on the focus group database, a research associate will telephone you to ask you screening questions based on the topic of the upcoming market research. If you are selected to participate, the research interviewer will give you all the details about the session and then mail / fax / email you a confirmation letter prior to the group. If you are not selected for this particular group session, your name will stay on the database and a research associate will contact you prior to the next session.

Please be assured that these sessions NEVER involve any sales or solicitations.
Market researchers are only interested in discussing your thoughts, perceptions and opinions.

If you have any questions about participating in a focus group,
please do not hesitate to contact Trend Research Inc. at 780-485-6558 or
