Anyone get a call from Innovative Concepts?

I am a little confused.
This lady called me from a company called Innovative Concepts. She wanted to know if I wanted to go to some location in Carle Place and do like a group discussion type thing and get paid $175 for 2 hours. I aksed where she got my name and she said Cablevision customers who have the triple play were eligible. Chat Icon Anyway, I would love to make $175 for talking about how I feel about rewards programs through credit cards and stores but it seems shady. Anyone ever hear of this?

No, it's legit. It's a Market Research company (I worked for them in college). I would say if you need the cash, goChat Icon

Re: Anyone get a call from Innovative Concepts?

I think my aunt does work for them. She goes to focus groups a few times a month. $175 sounds like alot though....I think she usually makes like $80.

did you google themand check them out with the Better Business Bureau?

Diane do it! I get calls like that all the time but they usually are conducted when I am at work. It should be easy $ for you.

Wonder if you can bring along the baby....Chat Icon

I did a focus group for them before. I get emails from them quite often but most of their groups seem to be at their office in Carle Place which is a big hike for me.
