Legit and pays well

July 2, 2023 by Olly from United States

I'm not sure why so many people left negative reviews, but I have never had a problem getting paid from this company. They have been great as long as I fulfill all the requirements; they just don't take everyone, that's all. Sometimes they are looking for a specific demographics, so you can fill out the survey and they don't contact you… But that's the same for every market research company. I have probably gotten approved for two or three in this company, and one of them paid $500 for two weeks of online bulletin board answers. I did another one that was through Zoom for $200. Didn't have problems with payment on either one, just have to be patient.

Good payouts

August 29, 2022 by Lori from United States

I have never had a problem qualifying for their surveys and the payouts are fair for the time spent. Usually they are trustworthy and do not kick me out near the end of completion. Much better than other survey providers in this regard.

Does not pay

May 24, 2022 by Thomas from United States

Will have you sit through an hour plus interview with a client and then never pay up. Then they ignore all attempts to contact them.

Focus group

February 7, 2022 by Cheryl from United States

I did my first focus group via zoom. It was a great experience and I look forward to the next opportunity. Carol was great! Thanks for the opportunity.

Over Promises, under delivers, 48 months and nothing

October 19, 2021 by kris from United States

Hagen/Sinclair proved to be a Total waste of time, 48 months and close to 100 "offers" and I actualized nothing. I even sent feedback years 2, onwards that there wasn't any change and never a reply. I kept my profile up to date. I think Hagen/Sinclair draws participants with big payout offers, hundreds of dollars for each opportunity, just to pad the member base to appear more attractive to potential clients. If the clients read reviews, they should question how large the member base really is.
