Thread: Greenfield Online Joins Toluna

I just received this e-mail -

Dear Lisa,


Greenfield Online is pleased to announce that we are now part of Toluna, a leading social community platform where people just like you are empowered to express your opinions in a variety of ways! In addition to influencing next generation products and services, we are delighted to introduce new, innovative programs which will allow you to engage in polls and debates with fellow community members.

The most exciting news we have to share with you today is the launch of an all new rewards program! Beginning in early 2010, we will be expanding our current incentive program, with a goal to reward you throughout the entire survey experience. As we grow and evolve, earning opportunities will no longer be limited to survey participation. Your active role within the Toluna community will propel your earning potential forward! The new program is being designed with choice in mind. You will have the power and flexibility to redeem points for a reward that is meaningful to you, such as:

-Cash Payments
-Great Merchandise
-Prize Drawings
-Sweepstakes Entries
-Charitable Donations
-With more exciting options to come!

And that's just the beginning! As we get closer to the launch date we will provide more details on our exciting updates and what they mean for you. And as our re-launch starts moving, keep your eyes open for fantastic new earning opportunities and the wonderful new experiences you will have as a Toluna member!

For now, everything will remain the same. You can login to your existing Greenfield Online account to request your available balance and take a survey as usual. If you are already a Toluna member, you will continue to reap the rewards from a community dedicated to making your voice heard!

If you have any questions about our new rewards program, please feel free to contact us at TolunaRewards@greenfield.com.

Sincerely,
The Panel Support Team at Toluna

I haven't received that email, but I have noticed that the PayPal payments I received from Greenfield over the last few months, were from Toluna, so I figured they were now the same company. It looks like the consolidation in the consumer research industry will continue, and there will only be 2 or 3 companies that own the majority of the panels.

I hope thats a good thing. I have a hard time qualifying for their surveys.

I agree. I no longer do Greenfield surveys that just get me an entry into a drawing.

That's not worth my time!
