Fundraising? Here’s a fun and interesting idea!
What is Food Perspectives?
Food Perspectives is a consumer testing company headquartered in Plymouth, MN. Our clients are major manufacturers of consumer food products who hire us to help them gain a better understanding of consumer likes and needs .
How do organizations raise funds through Food Perspectives?
Organizations register men and women ages 18-65 who are willing to take part in as many as 6 taste tests or home use tests per year. Each time testers participate in a test, they receive $21 - $35 and their organization is credited with $6 - $9. Accumulated funds are sent to organizations bi-monthly. After the first year, organizations have an opportunity to receive a BONUS as they continue to work with us.
- SORRY! Those with any food allergies or households who have anyone working for a major food manufacturer are not able to participate.
When and where are the tests?
Food Perspectives has many test locations in the Twin Cities where people come to evaluate a small portion of food and give their opinions about the product’s taste or appearance . As a tester, you will be invited to tests within a short drive from your home. Day and evening test times are offered for all tests to accommodate various work schedules.
How are testers scheduled for a study?
Testers will be contacted at home by one of two methods:
- By “live” Callers who will ask a series of questions in order to qualify testers for a test; OR
- By our Automated Recruiting System (referred to as ARCS) which also questions and qualifies testers for a test.
