The Media Online is proud to announce the launch of Mediatalk, a new 3 month project in collaboration with Upinion, to get feedback on various topics. We want you, as a loyal reader of the site, to play a very active role in this exciting survey.
The Mediatalk discussion panel is a community of people who share an interest in media, marketing and advertising. By joining the discussion your input and feedback will give us valuable insights and assist us in giving you more of what you want to read about.
The best part about it is that it is hassle free for you. You have to opt in to be a part of the project, so you are not forced into it, and you can opt out at any time. If you choose to be involved the setup process is also very simple. You get sent a link to download the UPINION App from Google Play or iStore and follow the registration prompts, get sent a verification code and then finally when asked if you have a Panel Code you say yes and enter MEDIATALK to access the project. Then simply answer three questions a week. Sometimes they will be yes/no questions, while others will be open ended, but have a maximum of 200 characters so answers won’t take up a lot of your time. In fact it should take you less than 3 minutes. The system will also give you notice of what day and time every week the questions will be sent to you, giving you a constant slot where you can plan to take a bit of time out of your busy schedule to answer them.
The other major benefit is that you will be answering the questions anonymously, so you can be completely honest with your answers, without fear of prejudice or repercussions. And if that isn’t enough to get you interested, there is also a rewards system in place. For every set of questions you answer, you accumulate points which you can redeem to stand a chance to win mystery hampers. One will be given out every month and at the beginning of each section of questions you will be notified of what the reward is.
So why are we doing these surveys? It will assist The Media Online team with shaping the direction of content for stories, as well as obtain insights into stories they are working on. We want you our loyal readers to become more involved in content generation, in terms of which topics matter the most to you as well as what views you have on each of them.
