Looking for participants for focus groups (evening of 2+3 May, Plainpalais, 25 Francs compensation)
Apr 25, 2012 @ 14:46

For my PhD research I'm looking for focus group (group interview) participants. 


WHO: 20-35 years old, regular internet user, good English


I need 6-8 people per evening, feel free to sign up with a friend. Let me know which day. You can only participate in one FG.


WHEN: Wednesday 2 May and Thursday 3 May, at 19:00h


It will take between 1 and 1.5 hours. 


WHERE: near Plainpalais


Maison des Associations, Rue des Savoises 15. 


WHAT: Viral Marketing


The subject is related to viral marketing, I will tell you more when I get there


WHY: 25 Francs


I'm offering 25 Francs per participants to compensate you for time/effort. Also - you will help me with my research. 


Interested? Send me a Glocals message or e-mail me at: ecjboon @ gmail . com (remove spaces)

Hello,


Just in case you don't get any participant, I am available to help -voluntarily,with no cost- but you will need to come to UNIGE instead (i study there, thats why i understand your need to get participant for your project).


or, without any conflict of interest, you can always come to the event that i created to watch the Avenger (at pathe balexert 20h30,more info check the "things to do" list for friday 27 april) which you will meet at least 12 people there and you can probably offer them a snack to compensate their participation.


 


Just an idea. Good luck.

Hi Dinda,


I'll gladly organize a focus group at UNIGE, but since I'm not familiar with its organization and facilities (e.g. how to get a room, how to find people) I haven't really considered it so far. Do you think you could help/advice me with this? Even if you don't want to accept money perhaps there's some other way I can compensate you and/or other participants (we can discuss the options).


Unfortunately I can't come to the Avengers tomorrow. I'm not even sure I want to see the movie in Pathe because they only have the 3D version and I hate having to wear 2 pairs of glasses for 2.5 hours (it actually hurts my nose).

hey edward,


1. since im "only" a student, im not sure how to accomodate you with the room, facilities etc. you can ask the secretariat about this.


2. the movie start one hour after the gathering in the same place because or plan is to drink and eat something before the movie start, so if you want to come just to chit chat and probably ask people to help out with your project without watching the movie, there is possibility that people are willing to cooperate (no guarantee thou!) -

It won't really work for me to come before the movie; my focus group includes showing a few YouTube videos and would take about an hour, and I would like to record the discussion so I can refer to it later. 


Thanks for the suggestions though. I may check again later with you about organizing FGs at UNIGE.
