Sampling Panels

Sampling panels may be a little different from testing panels. They usually offer samples more than anything, but a lot of the items can be full sized. They also have surveys you complete after receiving the items. Here's a list of sampling panels I've had success with;

Crowdtap

Crowdtap isn't specifically related to social media. They have quick polls and challenges that help you earn entries for a bunch of different brands where you're entered into multiple drawings at the end of the month. I win about 2 $5 Amazon gift cards at the end of every month.They also occasionally have sampling programs where you'll receive a product from a brand and all they ask is for you to talk to people about it (on the phone, face to face, or on social media) and then include what you've done in a report (quick survey) by the deadline. You can join here; http://home.crowdtap.com/. Here are some samplings I participated in;

PinchMe

PinchMe allows people to sample a range of products from many different brands. On certain Tuesdays at 12 pm on the dot, you are able to select different products available to you to add to your PinchMe box that will be sent to you. In return, you are to do a very quick survey on each item you requested. These go very fast so you have to be quick. You can join here; www.pinchme.com/. Here are a few things I've gotten;

Sample Source

3 times a year, sample source allows you to pick from a variety of samples from different brands that you qualify for. You select which items you would like and then you add them to your box that you receive. They'll then email you to complete a quick survey on each item you requested. You can join here; www.samplesource.com/. Here are a few things I've gotten;

P&G

P&G is a company that owns many different brands from Cascade to Aussie to Tampax. They have a section on their website where you can select different samples to be included in your p&g sampler box. They have 3 sampling periods throughout the year. You can join here; www.pgeveryday.com/tag/product-samples-offers. Here are a couple of things I've gotten;
