The Good Side is an independent market research agency.

This study will explore the experiences, perceptions and expectations of young men and their social media content in the UK, Canada, USA.

Background

The project will consist of the following stages:

Online community:

You will be asked to share audio recordings, screen shots, photos or notes via an Online Platform, for use in this project and to share with the Client. You are advised to read and understand the Online Community platform privacy policy.

Online Interviews

If selected, you will take part in a one hour long focus group with our moderator team, speaking about your experience on the platform as well as to dive deeper into the conversations about social media and content creators and relationships.
