NCP Accepting Applications Again…

I know that a lot of you have been waiting for this to come back (I also know that these survey companies are NOT for everyone), so I wanted to let you know that they have once again opened up the submissions for the National Consumer Panel… The National Consumer Panel focuses on measuring consumer attitudes and behavior.
