annemouse Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Hi all! I'm new to taking surveys - I've been doing it for about 6 weeks. I passed an initial screener to take part in an on-line focus group. I never heard back so I guess they filled up or something. After I got the email, I realized that I have never IM or chatted before. And maybe they checked my profiles and realized that. Maybe they figured that I wouldn't know what to do. So my question is: Is there something I have to download to be able to join online focus groups? Is there somewhere I can go to practice? Any hints? I've googled and googled, but am not really getting anywhere. I saw that if I joined msn i needed to download a program and yahoo too. Are these programs always necessary to chat? Hope that makes sense. PS. I love the site and have joined many sites using surveypolice. I can't find a link to donate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariners Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Yes there can be something you need to download. If you do not have it you can not take it. Usually they will send out an email for you to go to the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeekers Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Welcome annemouse! I'm with focus forward online through Survey Police. I've only done surveys for them, but I know they do focus panels. I've heard some sites want you to download and others that don't require it. Also, www.amylyn.org is a website that will has a list of focus panel groups that they consider to be legitimate. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
