Give Opinions

Research panels involve taking part in a series of activities over a longer period, sometimes several months or up to a year.

These activities can include surveys, interviews, focus groups, and product tests, depending on the study.

Panels are particularly valuable when the subject matter is relevant or interesting to you, making participation more rewarding for everyone involved.

More Ways to Take Part

Online Communities

Contribute your opinions over time in an online community at your own pace. Take part in discussions and activities whenever it suits you.

Focus Groups

Share your views in a small, moderated group discussion where ideas are explored together. A more interactive way to give feedback.

Depth Interviews

Take part in a one-to-one conversation focused entirely on your experiences and opinions. A structured way to share insights.

Accompanied Shops

You’ll go shopping with a moderator who observes and asks about your choices. They might ask about products, layout, signage, staff, and your overall impressions.

In-Home Interviews

A moderator visits your home to see your behaviour in your own environment. They’ll show ID, call ahead, and answer questions so you feel at ease.

Workshops & Co-Creation Sessions

Longer sessions (3–6 hours) where you work with others to test ideas, solve problems, and give feedback. These are usually face-to-face, very hands-on, and benefit from energy and creativity.

Ethnographies

A moderator observes how you do things in real life, sometimes remotely. They often follow up with a short chat to understand both what you do and why.

Pre-Tasks & Post-Tasks

Small activities before or after a main session, like surveys, diaries, or creative tasks. They help moderators understand your habits and usually come with their own incentive.

Surveys

Quick and simple, surveys gather opinions online, by phone, in-store, or on the street. They often offer vouchers, or prize draws and are a common first step into research.

Product Tests

You try out a product at home or in a venue and give feedback. Following instructions carefully and being honest helps brands improve products before launch.

User Experience (UX) Testing

You test websites or apps by trying features and navigation. This can be observed in person, moderated online, or recorded independently.
