Have you ever participated in a market research study? Once I took part in a study about diapers that was local. Well, it was kind of local. I had to drive about 20 miles to sign up, receive the product, return the used product (yuck), then again to receive payment. It was a pain. I did not do another study with that company again. They continued to call me with more studies. It was just too much a hassle.
The good news is that now market research studies can be conducted online. Companies will send the product to consumers to try, then they will give their opinion of the product. Or, consumers will be asked to view advertisements and give feedback on what they saw. There are may ways companies can now conduct research without having to rely on local residents.
