Reading all the different opinions, feelings about everything under the sun here from all over the US and even from Europe, QVC doesn't have to pay for marketing surveys, they've got it all right here!

It's a goldmine of how and who to market everything they have.

Why wouldn't they want to keep that? It really is an invaluable tool for QVC.

Yes, it might be a handful of all their customers but it is a looking glass into those who represent so many of all the different "walks of life!"

It is valuable @on the bay this board is a small group, (considering they broadcast to millions of homes) but an important one. I think this board represents the demographic that pays their bills. I know they want to expand to a younger audience, but they can't afford to to lose their base.

Some of you may or may not know this, but QVC already has another "forum" a private, by invitation one that is geared towards that.  They pick your brain with questions about this item or idea, surveys, then give you points for participating.  They ask you to post pictures of your home during the holidays and what not, my mom is on it.

No they don't have to pay for marketing surveys compared to this site.  They do have to pay to maintain this site.  I think that maintaining this site costs more.

Focus groups.  That's what that sounds like.  I used to attend a couple and got paid at the end.

This one don't pay that's for sure.  If you earn enough points they give you like a gift card thing that you can use on a purchase.  That's about it.  Mom hasn't earned enough points.
