Become A Consumer Panelist


 

Are Your Mailbox and Email Inbox filled with Solicitations and Junk Mail?

You're invited to participate in a long-term Market Research Study of Direct Mail and Email Marketing received by consumers. In other words, we want to compensate you for sending us all of the direct mail and email you might normally just throw away!

Overview

By joining the SBKC Consumer Panel, your participation will influence important decisions that affect the ways companies directly market to consumers including helping companies reduce mailbox clutter. In addition, we frequently have additional mystery shopping surveys. Primarily, we are interested in studying direct marketing (direct mail and email) of the following types:

  • Insurance: Solicitations of any kind: Health Insurance, Life Insurance, Auto/Property Insurance, etc. Investments/Annuities: IRA/Rollovers, Mutual Funds, 401(k), Pensions, etc.
  • Mortgage/Loans: Auto, Home Equity, Mortgage, Personal Loan, etc.
  • Banking: Solicitations for new accounts or special offers from your current bank: Checking, Savings, Money Market, Certificates of Deposit, Rewards or Loyalty programs, etc.
  • Credit Cards: Solicitations for new accounts or special offers for cards you already own: All Credit Card Types including: General Use Credit Cards & Charge Cards, Retail/Department Store Cards, Affinity/Rewards Cards such as Airline, Hotel, Alumni, Club/Association Cards.
  • Telecommunication: Wireless (network providers such as Verizon, AT&T or manufacturers such as Samsung or Motorola), Wire-Line (Landline/Home Phone), TV/Cable, Satellite, Internet, IP/Internet Phone.

Earning Rewards

It's easy to start earning points towards gift-cards as a SBKC Consumer Panelist. You can apply your points to redeem same-as-cash gift-cards to tons of popular retailers. You can earn points by participating in two ways:

  • Direct Mail: We will provide you with pre-paid flexible envelopes for the collection of your mail. Simply drop the pre-paid envelopes in the mail as often as you can, (we suggest weekly). Once received, SBKC will remove all of the personally identifiable information prior to use in our study. We keep track of your points and send you a monthly newsletter which will include your point balance. That's it!
  • Email: Forward individual emails from the above categories. Again, we delete all personal information, log your points, and email you monthly. It's that quick and easy.

Frequent participants can earn as much as $20 in credit every 6 to 10 weeks!
