QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PANEL

What is the Mills Advisory Panel (MAP) ?

The MAP is an online group of consumers age 18 and over who are willing to share their opinions about food and food products. After joining, panelists complete online surveys, providing feedback to influence the look, taste, and experience of General Mills and Small Planet Foods products.
The MAP exists strictly to conduct market research, the gathering of opinions and feedback, for input into the design of General Mills and Small Planet Foods products. The feedback of panel members is reported only in the aggregate. Individual identities will never be shared.
How do I join?

To be eligible to participate in the MAP, you will need to complete a questionnaire that details food consumption behavior and other information about you and your household. Once this questionnaire has been completed you then become eligible to participate. You will find this registration questionnaire if you go to the 'Join Now' page of this website.
Who can participate?

U.S. residents age of 18 or over who have been invited to join the MAP may participate. People who work for competitive food companies, advertising agencies, or market research companies or departments may not participate.
When I give you my personal information when I join, what do you do with it?

The Mills Advisory Panel gathers demographic information, such as age, occupation, and other household characteristics, about our panel members when they fill out the Registration Questionnaire and participate in surveys. We track this information so we can send surveys that correspond to members' qualifications and interests. We also summarize information about the panel to develop statistics, ensuring that the panel is representative of consumers from across the country. Contact information is used only when Mills Advisory Panel needs to communicate with the panel members.
How is my privacy protected?

The MAP is a strong supporter of privacy. We follow CASRO (Council of Survey Research Organizations) guidelines to protect respondent confidentiality. Please click on the 'Privacy' link at this site to review our complete policy on participant privacy.
Will it cost me anything to join or participate?

No. Participation is free!
What if I live outside the U.S. ?

Currently, the Panel consist of only U.S. residents.

TAKING SURVEYS

How will I know when to take a survey?

For each study, you'll receive an invitation by email to participate. The panel research will be conducted on the Web. All you need to do is click on the link, or copy and paste the website address into your browser window. Then, simply follow the instructions on the screen to complete the survey. You are never obligated to participate in research.
How often will I be asked to participate in a survey?

Panel members will be invited to participate approximately six to twelve times per year in different types of projects, and no more than fifteen times a year. For each study, you'll receive an invitation by E-mail to participate.
How long will surveys take to complete? What if I start a survey and I run out of time before I can finish it?

Surveys will vary in length depending upon the subject. Most surveys will range from 10 to 20 minutes but others will be as short as 5 minutes. If you can't finish a survey, you can always come back to it at another time. When you return, it will take you to the place where you left off. In general, you will have 3 or 4 days to complete each survey.
If I receive a study invitation, does that mean I'm qualified to participate?

We do our best to identify studies that are relevant to you, based on the information you have provided to us in your profile as well as in previous studies. The email invitation will typically indicate the general subject matter and provide instructions that pertain to that study. You may be asked to take a 'screening survey' if there are any special requirements needed for a particular research study. It may be that we are looking for some characteristic that you or your household don't fit. In those cases, we will not require you to complete any more of that particular study.

REWARDS

Are members rewarded for their participation?

If you agree to join the Mills Advisory Panel, you may receive different types of compensation depending on the type of research project you participate in. For many projects, you will be awarded points that can be redeemed for various prizes after you've accumulated a minimum number of points. For other types of projects, you may receive a product to try or some other type of compensation. Our invitation for each project will state the compensation.

I got the email, but didn't fill it out yet. I've filled out sooo many survey's from them but never get anything. :-(

I am supposed to receive broth as well.
Can you tell me how it came in and what was in the package?
I am looking forward to it since in the fall and winter some much is made with a broth base.

Mine came Fedex. A 1 quart carton, I think.

I got the invite for a 15 minute survey but it didn't say I would get any points. Do they always give points? I got plenty of other paid surveys to do so am not going to watse 15 minutes for nothing.

I didn't get the survey yet but I'm 250 away from 10.00.I did get the broth though.

Thanks!

thanx 4 the heads up

I got dq'd.

I got in and got the broth and 1.25 off coupons via FedEx like 2 days ago. My husband says the stuff is actually very good. The good deal on this one is the coupons... spread them to your family and friends far and wide. I believe it pretty much comes to half off when you go to buy it in the store.

Is this one the same as Psssst? Cause I never get any surveys, and I don't think I have any stinkin points!

Asked about parties that I have during the year.



End of the survey I got this:

Congratulations! You are eligible to be selected to participate in a market research project over the next few weeks. If you are selected and participate, you will be paid $150 at the end of the project. This project is one that you can do in the comfort of your own home. We would provide a small, very simple, handheld digital video camera and ask you to film certain situations related to your holiday gatherings. For example, we might ask you to film your grocery lists, show us the inside of your refrigerator, or the ways you decorate or prepare your home for the gatherings. In all, you should expect to film about 2-4 hours (a few minutes at a time) between November 17 and January 1.

The cameras we loan you can plug directly into your PC USB port. Periodically, we will ask you to download the videos clips you shoot to our private, secure web site. We will provide very simple, easy to follow instructions for this process. It will take just a few minutes each time you download. No videos will ever be publicly accessible or posted to the Internet. They will be used only for the purposes of our research organization. Also, we will provide a self-addressed, post-paid box for returning the camera to us at the end of the project. We are inviting only a small number of individuals to be a part of this research project, so your participation is very important to us. Would you be willing to participate if you are selected?

But 2lbs? Do you think it could be the digi camera one?

I never took a survey about a digi cam or a zoom (as mentioned in a later post). I'm only guessing its the potatoes because that's the last survey I took for them. But if it's a digi cam, I'm good with that too.

Another one I completely forgot about because I get nothing from them, logged in and have a whopping 100 pts, lol.

But 2lbs? Do you think it could be the digi camera one?

i hope its the digi camera!!!:pray:

I never did the digi camera survey either, so I am pretty sure that's not it. I just did a survey about 10 days ago, but I can't remember what it was about! :lmao:

oh yah that would be enough to feed 10 people:roll: , anyone getting this today, please post:pray: :pray: that it is the digi camera, they did say it was light weight and very basic

i think its the potatoes.

Yeah, now that I'm thinking, I believe that was what the survey was about : ) That sounds about right, too---I mean the box weighs 2 pounds, which sounds about right for a box of potato flakes.

A couple of months ago I got a similiar email stating something had shipped UPS from General Mills and it turns out it was a product test from a survey site. So it's probably nothing related to this GM program.

I looked at my records and it said if chosen we would receive the test product (potatoes) 12/4 via UPS. So mine is spposed to be here on the 4th, so guess that is it.

Ummmmm......I'll join in on telling you to relax. (Maybe she's kinda new to this stuff.) Personally I don't blink an eye until months have passed. Sometimes I even forget about whatever I signed-up for until it arrives in the mail. It's fun to see a free item, coupon, gift card, etc. in the mail when you have forgotten about it. It's just all fun & games.

I just cashed in the other day and they tell you it will be sent to you with in 48 hours. It took over a week to get mine.

BTW you get an e-mail with your code- It comes from "Gift Cards Redeemable at Amazon.com" with the subject line "Rewards from Mills Advisory Pane sent you an Amazon.com Gift Card!‏"

At least you guys are getting things from them. My last communication from them was MONTHS and MONTHS ago!:mad:

FYI they call too. So if an unknown comes up on your caller id it may be them. I got a 15 dollar gift card last time they called.

Pastachic - I totally agree and I personally do NOT screen my calls unless it's someone I'm trying to avoid. :eek: On the other hand, if the caller is unknown or an 800 # or whatever, I'll pick up with no hesitation. I guarantee you that if it's some telemarketer the conversation does not last long at all and never hear from them again! :smack:

They will email you. I don't get many invites from them.

This is the first thing I've ever got from them.

I've not gotten an email from them to participate in anything, but I did get an email from UPS today that says I am getting a package from general mills. I have NO clue what it is or what it is for though.

I got it too and I think it might have something to do with the product test from SurveySpot? Did you get an email from them today that you were accepted?

Thank you!!

I never even got the box of food! Just a bunch of surverys for like 10 points each. I did Q for the Betty Crocker community, which also starts Monday. Seems like a lot of work for $50, I did one like this for a week and got $300. Oh well, hopefully it's fun!

:clap: I got into the Yoplait one too...So excited, I eat so much yogurt (Yoplait of course:heart:

I also got into the Yoplait, surprising cause I've never did anything for them before.

I finished one the second week of december. It took until the first week of Jan. for map points to be deposited. One lady was so mad because she though they would be deposited before Christmas.

She sent me the link to the new group. Was weird though because it wouldn't let me in since I was in the NV group. So I had to go into the NV group and change my email then register for the new group.

They only pay a portion of the GC that way, say buying in bulk saves them 10% on every GC- that's a bunch to them!

Hey, I got email too and my points is 600. Yeah I agree with you WTF. lol I don't know why they changed.

Complete list:

Good thing I just redeemed my $50 for Amazon. :rock:
THANKS hon i owe ya..makes me feel abit better ;)

THANKS hon i owe ya..makes me feel abit better ;)

:hug: Glad I could make you feel better. I was annoyed for a bit, but there's a few places I could spend points on. Old Navy, overstock - it's all good. :)

not good here ....I got a survey here and there..map points were never there .. I think I have 450...gotta have 1000 to cash out...***sigh*** BTW they could have gotten a bigger discount for the other GCs...anyways it still is the same...1000 to cash out. They are just taking out those options.....you will not lose your points

After the potato buds pt, they gave me a bonus of 200 points so you might get lucky like that too one of these days. I'd only done the Progresso broth and the potato buds, w/a few low point surveys reaching about 600 points, but then got the bonus and a focus group ( heaven knows why they picked me... ). Would have been nice of them to let people cash out at any point level at least before switching over.

Good thing I just redeemed my $50 for Amazon. :rock:

I just redeemed for $50 paypal an hour before that email came;) I'd rather have paypal/amazon..I don't do malls or food places, I'd rather find bargains and have "disposable"cash to spend wherever that bargain may be

I never get anything from these people so I was psyched to get an e-mail telling me they are changing the way they pay out. I have no idea how many points I have so I will never get a pay out anyway! :lmao:

Got this yesterday:

We greatly appreciate the insights you shared and want ensure you are
able to redeem the MAP points you earned for either Amazon or PayPal
credit (in addition to the newly introduced Supercertificates from
www.giftcertificates.com).

Accordingly, we have extended the period for redeeming your MAP points
for Amazon or PayPal credit until Thursday, April 30th, 2009. We
sincerely hope that this gives you enough time to visit
www.millsadvisorypanel.com and redeem your MAP points for a reward of
your choice. Please note that Supercertificates from
www.giftcertificates.com will continue to be available to you beyond
April 30th.

Anyone get a UPS notification from GENERAL MILLS/EXPEDITE-DMF ??

Yes, but it's not from here. It's a pt I qualified for through another site. Did you qualify for a snack food pt a few weeks ago through Zoompanel? Said at the end they'd contact you around April 9th, but I just got the notice today.

Some people complained, so they extended it until the end of this month. So, you're good.

Did anyone else from Yoplait get into the second portion of the program? :look:

nice! thanks for the info!!!

I got a survey yesterday, but DQed at the store Q.

This is one of the companies that bug me.. I have been cut off from everything since they sent me the Box of potatoes ...they came very late...they sent an email saying they were sorry that so many folks had gotten them so late that they were extending the deadline for another week or something like that. I quick made them for dinner that night...still was under the original deadline ( it was supposed to end the next day originally ) Went to log in the next morning...survey closed...and remained closed !! Now they won't even talk to me. I don't mind any company that doesn't send me PTs or such but this was their fault...never heard back since...UGH !!

Thanks! I signed up.

After completing the invite I received from them-I've haven't even received a survey! Bit disappointed with this program. Guess 50+ doesn't shop or eat.:lol:
