Large companies with millions of advertising dollars are looking for people to tell them what they like and don't like about products and services. These comapnies contract with market research firms, which use surveys and focus groups, to find that information. in turn, these market research firms will pay you to participate. Paid survey sites compile lists of these firms and want you to buy their list.
Before you get involved with paid survey companies, you need to know a few things.
First, when you receive an email that says, "Huggies vs. Pampers, take this survey and get a $500 gift card," toss it out. That is not a paid survey site. If you read the fine print, before you get your $500 gift card, you have to sign up for several offers, some of which cost money. From my experience, it isn't worth your time and effort.
A real paid survey is done by a legitimate market research firm.
Second, you really don't need to pay to join any paid survey sites. You can find out all the information they will give you by researching the Internet. You can find the market research companies themselves, or you can find free lists of those companies. The rationale behind paying for the information is: 1.) the savings in your research time; 2.) the bonus materials the vendor ties into the package, and 3.) the volume of companies they have in their database.
With that said, here are some tips to get you going:
1.) There are many types of survey companies. Some reward you with cash, while others reward you with redeemable points or prizes. Research to make sure you know what the company is offering its participants. For those offering cash, find out what the minimum payout is, and how you can get paid.
2.) Get a second email address to use only for survey contacts. Some sites will send you e-mail notifications; others want you to log into their site and access a database of surveys. A dedicated email address will allow you to know instantly when a survey company contacts you.
3.) Register with as many survey sites as possible. Fill out the user profile as completely and honestly as possible, so the company can match you with survey offers. Survey panels don't send out surveys everyday; some may send out one a month, while others may send out several a week. The more panels you join, the more surveys you will receive.
Some survey sites want you to sign up for a trial offer of some sort, which may or may not require a credit card. Others just have you fill out surveys. Keep accurate records of when you sign up for free-trial offers, so you know when to cancel so you won't be billed. This is another point I learned the hard way.
Surveys pay between $1 and $5 each; focus groups pay more. You can see that you won't get rich quick with surveys, but you can make a lot of extra income.
Be sure you do your research before you sign up with a survey company. There are many database companies in the Internet that are unreliable and are scams. There are also several companies that are reliable, dependable and customer oriented, such as Survey Platinum, Survey Scout, Survey Junction, Paid Online Surveys and Get Cash for Surveys. You should identify and register with such paid online survey database companies. Then, check your email for survey offers, and get paid for your opinions
