Paid Surveys
What is this all this "surveys"
stuff and why should you
care?
If a company makes products or provide services, they need your
honest opinions to make their stuff better. Even if you don't
buy their stuff. And best of all? Quite a few of them are willing
to reward you pretty nicely for your insight and opinions. You
don't have to do anything extraordinary. Just let them know you're
available, and answer their questions honestly.
Consumer market research (a.k.a. paid
surveys), is an easy, legitimate, well paying, work from home
opportunity, that provides extra income earning potential YOU
can start TODAY in your spare time - for FREE!
There aren't many simpler ways to make money
online than signing up for these surveys and answering
questions honestly. You don't need anything other than what you
already have - an opinion and a little extra time. And you can do
them anytime you want. From anywhere you can log-on. The ultimate
part-time job!
There's
no secret to taking surveys for money. There's nothing hocus-pocus about getting
paid to take surveys. The only thing you'll see on the news about
these free paid surveys, are the results of the polls some of these companies
run. For the record, you will never achieve millionaire status
taking surveys. But that's not what this is really all
about. This is for anyone who wants to sincerely
influence the world around them by participating on a consumer opinion panel. And get paid some decent extra money for
their effort.
Legitimate paid market research
(these online surveys) is a money earning opportunity, much like a
job.
Not a money-making-scheme, like so many scams.
So, you want to find
out more on how you can get paid to take surveys, and influence the
development of new and existing products and services? You want to
make a real difference you'll see on the news. With the products on
the shelves of your favorite retailers? With quality, convenient new
services? Do you want to make money for it? Then you came to the
right place for free paid surveys online.
P.S. - Just a few more things about this
easy work from home opportunity.
"C'mon, everybody knows paid surveys are
scams!"
"Seriously? Do they expect intelligent people to believe there are 'research companies' handing out money to
anybody that wants to answer questions?"
Well, hang on Mr. Know-It-All. Apparently, you didn't get into M.I.T.,
otherwise you'd know about the
research department. And what if you took
a paid survey from Microsoft?
A survey from Hewlett-Packard?
I.B.M.?
Carharrt?
Walmart.
Yahoo.
Johnson & Johnson.
Proctor & Gamble. Universities such as
Notre Dame.
Yale.
Columbia.
Princeton. And
at least
a thousand more legitimate paid surveys
right
here!
Would that prove it for you?
But besides being an easy "get paid" or "make money" opportunity,
the coolest thing about participating in market research is...
There's a lot of information available
on the topic of
"free surveys for money."
And there's a lot of repetitive, over-hyped
misinformation as well. If you want a fresh take
(ours) on
the whole "get paid to
take surveys" thing, then
here it is.
We all have questions about how to get paid and make money online, especially with something
as easy as answering
simple questions for money... who wouldn't! Our first questions weren't "Is it
going to cost me anything" or "how much can I expect to make", but rather,
questions like...
Are all these paid surveys even real?
And if so, why isn't EVERYBODY just sitting back getting rich taking paid
surveys in their pj's?
Why would anybody pay you for your opinion? If they can predict the weather,
can't they predict consumer trends? And what about those pesky telemarketers?
Don't they get enough information from the people that actually talk to them?
Doing your own
research and weeding through the junk! Have you ever done a search for
"surveys" and tried to find fresh, relevant information? If you're one of those
people who won't trust a thing unless you back-check it, you can spend hundreds
of hours tracking down information on paid surveys and never find you really
want all in one place.
The truth behind the hype of the ads!
Seriously, get paid $300 to answer questions? How about the more realistic claims of $5 - 75 to complete
surveys? What does "participation required" mean? What about the monthly income
claims? Find out what very few sites will tell you... the truth!
Get behind the scenes of online
surveys...
Because an educated consumer is a valued
consumer.
Your
consumer research 101 primer.
As a self-elected respondent, a recruiter may call and ask you hedonic
questions to qualify you for an IDI, and you're to meet a moderator for a
backroom UPR session which pays a large honorarium... Wait, what?
It's alright, once you know what's really going on with this "paid
surveys" stuff, it's easy to see how legitimate it is, why they pay you
some decent money, and how you're actually making a difference in the
world.
Ethics - expectations from the consumers taking online
surveys. Honesty, being yourself, not misrepresenting your profession or
expertise, not registering with the same company under multiple aliases...
basically all the stuff most people learned in kindergarten, but have forgotten
or don't practice anymore.
Resources for your own research on paid surveys. Access to thousands
of articles about the science and methodologies behind consumer surveys. Don't
take our word for it about all this "paid surveys" stuff! Please, do your own
research, and you'll see we're here to help, not muck it up!
A
Glossary
so you can learn the lingo of market research surveys. Words are cool.
Being able to use them in a sentence is even cooler. Being able to tell your
friends you have a $300 honorarium from a focus group, and you'll be out
shopping, is the coolest.
And just about everything else you need to know to feel
comfortable, know they're legitimate, and what you'll need to
start taking paid surveys and make money online TODAY!
A few precautions...
before you start signing up with every surveys for cash offer out there.
Don't get hypnotized by the blinking
lights or believe everything you breathe.
Find out what "rules"
legitimate survey companies will follow, and what bogus
survey companies will try.
Paid survey
"reviews". We don't do them, won't, never,
not going to happen.
Paid survey
"rankings". Alphabetic order is tough
enough, how the heck do the other paid surveys sites do it? And why?
"Blacklists". Oooooh! Does anybody take a
paid surveys black-list seriously? And under what authority can one make a
"blacklist"?
"Money Back Guarantees" are the best way to
make consumers feel safe. But seriously, are you going to call the company when
your twenty-two e-mails go unanswered and you're nearing the expiration period?
And what if you can't get a hold of anyone? And what if they refuse to refund
your money? And none of that is the point, because most companies aren't in
business to make a bad name for themselves. They're counting on your lack of
motivation. And they have the statistics to prove it!
