We were stationed in the mall and did surveys that paid from nothing up to $100 depending on the demographics and products etc. We even conducted phone surveys. It was interesting learning about products sometimes years before they hit the market place. There are surveys about everything and for everybody. It's a huge part of business. It's also an interesting way to make a bit of cash. Good Luck! I used to work for a market research company.

For doing it, I received a coupon good for a free movie ticket. At the time, it was worth about $8.50. I once was asked to answer a survey in the lobby of a large movie theatre here.

I declined because I'm not the type who likes doing that sort of thing, but thought it interesting.

I did, and they gave me information on a 3-hour marketing survey group. I went. The company would ask the group (about 100 people) questions about commercials or new products they were thinking about releasing. We gave our input and afterwards received $60.
