User Interviews
userinterviews.com Freemium Beginner
When your personal network and community outreach genuinely run dry, this is the paid fallback: a recruiting panel of people willing to be interviewed for a fee, filterable by role, industry, and other criteria. It won't replace warm intros for depth, but it's a real way to fill gaps in a specific persona you can't otherwise reach. Use it to supplement, not substitute, the people you already know.
- Paid panels work well for narrow professional personas you can't reach personally
- Screening questions matter more than volume, filter hard before you pay
- Treat paid interviewees the same as warm ones, don't pitch, just listen
