Paid Focus Group — Social Media & Digital Life — $245 CAD (Canada / Remote)

A national research firm is recruiting Canadian residents for a paid virtual focus group on behalf of a client studying social media apps. The group discussion will cover your experiences with social media — usage habits, favourite features, what matters most when choosing a platform, frustrations you've faced, and how social media fits into your everyday digital life. No right or wrong answers, just real conversation.

Sessions are 2.5 hours and will take place online via Zoom. Groups will be held throughout April, May, and June, with various time slots available throughout the day — you'll be able to select a time that works best for you if qualified.

You can join from the comfort of your home — no travel required.
