Become a consumer panelist.
We need you! Everyone is welcome to sign-up (some restrictions apply). You will never be asked to purchase anything. We pay you for your participation. CTI also conducts tests on products designed for kids and welcomes parents to register their children if they wish to have them participate as well. Our consumer panel is growing and if you would like to participate in upcoming surveys, we would like to hear from you.
Why should I participate?Manufacturers often request that a consumer or sensory test be conducted when they wish to gather information about a new product that they are planning, make changes to an existing product or substantiate an advertising claim. Your opinion, taste buds, and senses matter and are key to making products better. It’s easy to do, takes no more than an hour, and you are paid for your time. It’s a great way to earn extra cash and be part of the product development process.How does it work?Some of the products we might test include cookies, sandwiches, french fries, soup, frozen and microwavable dinners, soft drinks, soap, detergent, shampoo, mouthwash, and other personal care, food, or household items. When you test with us, depending on the product, you will be asked to taste, touch, smell and/or look at products and answer questions about them. Sometimes you are asked to take products and try them at home but for the most part, testing is done at one of our field sites, conveniently located in your area.Most tests are done on a computer and take no more than an hour to complete. When you arrive at our field site, you simply sign in by showing your photo ID to the receptionist and then when the test begins, you are taken to the research room where you will be given the products to sample and review. You simply follow the instructions that are given and respond to the questions with your opinions. At the end of the test, you go back to reception to sign out and receive your incentive. CTI conducts product tests at various times during the day so we provide a great deal of flexibility for consumers to participate. |
