This isn’t in reference to people to test your own line of products. I know there are a million apps/services for that.

I’m curious if anyone here has good ideas about how I can find product testers for our blog.

Basically, our company is eCommerce and media publishing, and on our blog we review a large number of consumer health products.

I want to find real people to test those products and share their honest opinion, and we will pay to send the products to them.

It’s asking ~15 minutes of work (filling out a questionnaire) for free products ranging from ~$30 to ~$500.

It seems like a great deal and something that many people would take to, but currently I’ve only found a few product testers by reaching out to our followers on social, and haven’t had luck on any other channels.

I’m wondering if any other entrepreneurs in this sub have been in a similar situation, and how you recommend finding these people.

    Go to network meetings, cocktail mixers, whatever events like that. Have a QR code on a card attached to your products (make this card difficult to remove), with “complete the survey for a $5 gift card” to (give multi popular options). When you hand these out make sure to inform them the deal (Take this product home and try it out…it is free to you. It sells for …$. But I would PERSONALLY appreciate you filling out the survey and there’s a little something extra there your efforts). Have that QR code link to the survey. They then try the product at home, the QR card is there, they link because they now have an expensive product for free and feel that the effort for 15 mins work another $5 is worth their time.
    This isn’t the cheapest way to do this, but if you want thorough responses this has worked for me.
