|
How can I get more surveys?.
The number of surveys each panelist will receive varies
significantly from person to person. The number of surveys you
will receive is directly related to your ability to help product
developers and marketers do their job more effectively. Here are
a few recommended guidelines:
|
|
Respond carefully to all survey questions: The
quality of information our clients receive is directly
related to the quality of data which you provide. Therefore,
please take the time to answer the questions with thoughtful
responses, particularly for open-ended responses where it is
possible to say nothing.
Provide realistic responses based on your current
situation: You will often be asked about your
willingness to do something. This is often a hypothetical
question for which it may be difficult to give a response.
Nevertheless, please attempt to give as realistic a response
as possible.
Keep your registration profile updated and complete.
Please note that only 1 person per household should be
registered at any given time.

What can I expect in terms of incentives
for my participation in studies?
At the start of each study, we will tell you what incentives
you will earn for the study. You will gain opportunities to
win prizes and/or cash, each time you participate in a survey.
The number of prizes, the value of prizes and the amount of
cash will vary depending on two factors: (1) the urgency of
the test -- more urgent tests will offer higher incentives,
and (2) the effort level of the test -- more time required for
completing the survey will be compensated with bigger / better
incentives.
Cash incentives must be accumulated to a minimum value of
US$50 before it can be transferred to a member's account.
|
How does Gulfsurveys.com compensate
international panelists?
Many of our research studies are conducted globally, in
different parts of the world. International members are
usually compensated in cash or with gift certificates
redeemable online. Cash incentives must be accumulated to a
minimum value of US$50 before it can be transferred to a
member's account.
|
Once the minimum amount of cash (US$50)
has been accumulated, how will I get my money?
We will send you a US-dollar denominated check drawn on our
bank (Emirates Bank International). Please ensure your
complete postal address is always current and updated in your
personal profile information with us. Funds are typically
received within 2 weeks of your request.
|
Do I get a chance to participate in
global studies?
Yes, absolutely. We partner with a number of research
organizations that need to target people matching your
profile. Typically, such surveys are hosted on Gulfsurveys.com.
Alternatively, we will provide you with a link to the
survey on our partner's website. Rest assured, your personal
data will never be passed on to third parties. All
communication with you will be done by us.
|
Is there any other way I can get
rewarded for my participation in surveys?
From time to time, certain studies are conducted that reward
participation with merchandize giveaways or dining vouchers.
At the start of the study you will be informed if the study
will award you opportunities for cash, prizes or
merchandize giveaways. Winners are always drawn on a random
basis from amongst all survey participants.
|
What exactly will Gulfsurveys.com do with the data?
The data you provide is used in two ways. First, an overall
result is computed by combining your responses with those
provided by other members who have participated in a study.
Second, the data is used to generate a database which can be
analyzed by our clients in a way that always conceals your
individual identity. Finally, your personal data will never be
sold or traded with another organization that is not part of
Gulfsurveys.com. For further details, please refer to our privacy
