I partnered with this brand in exchange for sharing this information and my honest opinion.

The holiday season is upon us and we all know what that means…our stomachs are growing and our wallets are shrinking.  No matter how many times you convince yourself to put money aside for the holiday gift budget, life gets in the way and expenses need to be paid.  The holidays sure bring out the spending in all of us! 

Can you use some extra spending money this holiday season?

We all love to share our opinions, but few know the secret to getting PAID for them. Focus Pointe Global is a national marketing research company with 18 facilities Nationwide and two right here in Chicago. They host paid focus groups, taste tests, surveys, product tests and more on behalf of companies that want to better understand their target customers, and are willing to pay a pretty penny for their insight. By participating in these opportunities, you can share your opinion and experiences to improve products, see new advertisements, try new products before they hit the shelves, and even get to sample some free food.
