Surveys will normally take between 5-15 minutes to complete.
This will vary from survey to survey but typically you will have around 7 days to complete a survey. The closing date of each survey you are sent will be clearly specified within the e-mail.
You will be asked about all sorts of different things regarding Good Sense Research, including new products, customer service, communication methods and your general satisfaction with the service provided to you.
A forum is a place where you can talk to other community members. It contains all the forum topics posted, and by answering these and interacting with other community members you will be providing valuable feedback.
You can find the forums in the “Forums” section of the home page once you have logged in. This can be found in the main menu bar on the top right.
There are several different parts of a forum:
This is entirely up to you and how much you want to share with other community members. It could take a minute or up to 5 minutes – or more if you choose - depending on how much you would like to write.
From time to time, we will be archiving threads and blogs in order to keep the site as easy to use and navigate as possible. It also lets us focus the discussions on current topics. Archived discussions may be held by QuMind for future research purposes. You can always start a new thread or blog if you wish to continue discussing a topic.
Go to the community homepage and make sure you are available for the specified date and time. If so, click the link that takes you to the screener questions. Complete the survey, selecting the answers relevant to you. Selection for the focus groups is based on your answers; if you are selected, you will receive an e-mail giving you the date and time of the focus group.
Once selected for a focus group, and having received your confirmation e-mail, please log in to the research platform a few minutes before it is due to start. At this time, an ‘Enter Focus Group’ link will appear on your homepage. If it does not, you may need to press F5 to refresh the page.
Upon entering the online focus group you will be muted. This means you will not be able to see anything you type in the focus group window. This is normal, and is intended so that everyone taking part has time to arrive and join the group. It also gives the forum moderator a chance to introduce the group.
You will be able to join focus groups if you arrive late. However, please note that, if you have not taken part in a sufficient proportion of the group, QuMind reserves the right to withhold any incentives offered as part of the focus group.
Once you have completed your first questionnaire sent to you via e-mail, we will process your answers and then you will be able to login. We will send you an e-mail when the processing is complete.
Firstly, if you have not already done so, check you are using the correct e-mail address. If you have started using a new e-mail address, but have not updated your details, the system will not recognise your new e-mail address. Secondly, use the password reminder on the login page.
If you are copying and pasting your password, check that you are not copying any blank spaces before or after your password because these are treated as extra characters by the system. If you are typing your password make sure that caps lock is not on - the password is case-sensitive.
Make sure that you have "cookies" enabled in your browser software; cookies are used in our login process and for tracking questionnaire completion.
Clicking on the 'My Details' link in the top right menu of your screen will take you to your personal page. Once you are here, you can then type in your new password in the 'Password' and 'Confirm Password' field. After this, click on 'Save my Details' and you will be able to log in using your new password.
Clicking on the 'My Details' link in the top right corner of your screen will take you to your personal page. Once here, you can then type in your new password in the ''Password' field. Enter it again in the 'Confirm Password' field. Click on 'Save My Details' and you will be able to log in using your new password.
If you have forgotten your password, simply enter the “Sign in” area as normal (please make sure you use the e-mail address you registered with). Under the “Password” text box, you will find an option that says “Forgot password?” Select this option, and you will be prompted to enter your email address once more in a new text box. Do this, and click “Next”. You will be informed that “an email will be sent to you shortly”.
The reminder e-mail should arrive in your e-mail inbox within a few minutes (depending on your internet connection). If the reminder does not arrive, try clicking "send and receive" on your e-mail program. If this doesn't work, please contact the helpdesk.

There are a number of reasons why you may not be able to view some of our questionnaires. Some suggestions on how to rectify any problems are listed below:
Make sure that you have cookies enabled in your internet software, as we use cookies to track the status of our questionnaires.
If you would like to keep a high-security setting, but still be able to participate in Good Sense Community questionnaires, you will need to add the community site to your "Safe" or "Trusted" sites. Please consult your browser documentation for assistance on this.
If you have advertising software attached or inserted into your e-mails, you may experience problems with the surveys. Some of these programs delete certain characters from our e-mails, and thus disable the links we send to you. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to control this, but we do advise you to inform your advertising software provider of the problem.
Firstly, please note down as much information as you can about the problem(s) you are experiencing, including any error messages you have seen.
Secondly, find out what software you are using. You can easily do this by visiting http://supportdetails.com and making a note of the details in the "Operating System" and "Web Browser" boxes. If you contact us with a technical question (that isn't answered here) it would be greatly appreciated if you can quote us the information that you have collected.
Finally, e-mail us this information at: enquiries@goodsense-research.com - and we will reply as soon as we are able. Before contacting us please check you have followed the steps above and only then contact us with as much detail as possible and explain the problem fully.
