Toronto, ON- McLeansville, NC native, Jennifer Gattis beats the odds and wins a car by answering online surveys. Gattis was one of over 105 300 North Americans eligible to win. Representatives from Ipsos i-Say, a leading online market research panel will be in Greensboro on Tuesday, March 31, 2009 to present Gattis with a 2009 Toyota Prius.
With the unemployment rate reaching 8.1% in February 2009 (United States Department of Labor), people are looking for more cost-effective alternatives to replace their pricier hobbies. Many are turning to the internet. The Online Publisher’s Association (OPA), a not-for-profit trade organization, reports that in “January 2009, [there] was a boom for total time spent online…up about 12% from January 2008.” Some of the more popular activities include: watching movies, visiting social networking sites and participating in online surveys.
Online surveys present a great opportunity for people to earn rewards for their time and opinions. With an average Ipsos i-Say survey lasting between 10 and 30 minutes the rewards quickly add up. Just ask Gattis, who was selected as the winner of Ipsos i-Say’s annual car giveaway.
This draw was open to anyone in the United States and Canada who was a member of the Ipsos i-Say panel (www.i-say.com) and who answered the majority of surveys offered to them for at least two quarters during 2008. I-Say’s incentives package provides many reasons to join: reward points, sweepstakes and a VIP program. Ipsos i-Say is one of the largest online panels in North America.
This event is open to the media. Photo opportunities are available. Please contact organizers to RSVP.
