Getting Started With Paid Online Surveys

My friend, there's money out there just waiting to be made!  All kinds of big companies are laying out cash daily, to pay people just like you, for giving them your opinion, for telling them what you think!

That market feedback is essential to the operation of marketing and distribution systems. They must know:

   What percentage of the population has seen their ads

    How people feel about their competition

    What they think of this new product,

    What percentage of their target market recognizes their brand name...

the list goes on and on, continually!

There are over 3,000 survey maker companies worldwide who are hired by big corporations to organize and make surveys. These companies are looking for people just like you and me to ask you their questions!

The fastest, cheapest and most effective way they can take a survey is online!  With the Internet they can get back answers in 1 to 2 days! And they are more than willing to pay for it!

It's not hard to pick up an extra $200 to $600 a month, just by filling out free online opinion surveys in your spare time! By working at it a bit, many people make over $1,000 a month!

All you need to get in on this money-making action is to pick a paid survey membership site and GET STARTED!!

To get started making money, taking surveys and receiving checks, here is what you need to do:

Get ready:

1. Open a free e-mail account with Yahoo!, gmail or Hotmail. Plan to use this only for your business of taking surveys. Visit it often, at least daily. You may also want to get a telephone answering machine, the kind that lets you hear the incoming message so you can decide whether or not to pick up. 

Get set:

2. You could go to our Analysis & Current Recommendations page and look over the 20 guide companies listed. (All of these have good lists of survey makers which offer legitimate paid online surveys, all have strong money-back guarantees.)

Or, you could just choose from our current top five picks, listed on our Summary page...

Choose a guide company from the top 5 selections on the summary page and click on the "Visit Website" button at the end of the listing or on the right. You will be taken to their website. Look it over, see what they say, what they offer.

Then hit the "back" button on your browser to come back here. Pick another and repeat the process. That will give you a "feel" for the companies and what they are like, what they are offering.

GO!

Choose the one that looks best to you, then click on the "Visit Website" button to go to the website of the paid survey site of your choice,  Go ahead and sign up with them. Take the step. Time's a-wasting! You can make back the small signup cost in a few days with a couple or three surveys! The important thing is to Get started! 

[Actually you can't go bad wrong with any of the upper half of our 20 finalists. Sure, some are better than others, but not by so much. Remember the 20 finalists in the "Miss America" contest? The "Mr. Universe" contest? Not a "dog" or a reject amongst them!

Same thing here! You are looking at the best three of the top 20 out of more than 100 that we track!]

Take out an "Insurance Policy":

3. When you sign up, make a copy of the guide company's website and save it. (MS Word works well for this). Then mark the date of your sign-up on your calendar. Mark the 60th day forward on your calendar. Back up 3- 4 days from that and write "Contact clickbank?" on that day. Back up another 3-4 days and write "Demand refund?" on that date.

This is your worst case scenario insurance policy. To be used only if the guide company doesn't live up to what they promised!

Now you need to run like crazy to make yourself known:

4. Now. Sign up with as many different survey companies as you can, as fast as you can. [We will give you a free RoboForm program to help fill out applications fast!]

Sign up for our newsletter at Newsletter and get a free copy of my eBook, "How to Make Good Money with Paid Online Surveys". This contains several hints on how to proceed and make the most money.

The more lists you are on, the more invitations you will receive to participate in online free surveys you get paid for. Don't take them in the order in which they are presented. Take them in the order of A. Those that pay in cash, B. Those that pay in points, gift certificates or other items that can be converted into cash and C. Any others you choose to work with.

5. Read the advice of your guide company. Ask them how to maximize your income.

6. Respond to all correspondence from your Survey contacts. Let them know you are still there and still active.

[Remember that they frequently work under time pressure. For example, one of their client companies calls up and wants to know 'xyz' NOW. "How quick can you run a survey and get back to me?", they ask. The survey company that is going to pay YOU, gets on the horn to a thousand or so of their contacts and wants to know if they are available for a survey.

Don't let that invitation languish in your inbox! When they are REALLY in a hurry, they only contact the known "fast responders"!

Or they invite 50% more participants than they need and take them on a first-come, first-served basis. When they get their target number they throw up a message that says, "Sorry, this survey is fully subscribed and closed." (!)]

7. Fill out the surveys you receive completely and to the best of your ability. Participate in focus groups, give thoughtful answers. Try to make useful contributions to the subject matter. [You want to be invited back, for the next focus group. ;-) ].

8. Evaluate your guide company from within. Work with them. Do your part. If you haven't applied to all the preferred survey-makers on their list, keep at it. Try to do 5 a day or 20 a week; keep on until you have applied to all!  The more survey-makers you apply to the more free online opinion surveys you will get! And the more money you will make!

And lastly, Enjoy all the money you make!

Best wishes for your Paid Survey Success,
