Payment

Each time you participate in a survey, focus group, or other paid opportunity, the particular company that is giving or sponsoring the opportunity will pay you directly.Some company will pay you by the survey, some will give you free products, while Focus Groups will normally pay by the hour.

Most of the companies we put in our database pay cash, but others may offer "points" you can redeem for goods and services, prizes, free products, and gift certificates.

Some will pay instantly online via PayPal, others will send you a check in the mail, etc. Just remember, you'll always know the exact details up front, and you pick the ones you like.Payments to you will be in U.S. funds. If you do not live in the U.S. you simply deposit these payments with your bank or other financial institution and they will convert the U.S. funds to your local currency for you automatically. It's no problem.

PayPal accounts are free and easy to use, but if you don't want one, there are lots of opportunities available that don't require a PayPal account. Only a very tiny number of companies require PayPal. The vast majority of companies will pay you with a check or other methods.

Some Points To Note

Some companies will enter you into a contest or sweepstakes when you initially register with them. This is how you build your profile and get started with them. They will often send you "screener" surveys, and then paid surveys will usually follow shortly thereafter.

Be sure to check your email often, and act quickly! The companies will often send out more invitations than they need participants, because they know some people won't respond for one reason or another. But once they have enough people, it might be too late for you.

Some of the sites and market research companies you'll be introduced to work with various sponsors, promotional companies, etc. and sometimes you'll be invited to purchase products, participate in trial offers, etc. You can safely ignore these offers if you're not interested.

Have some fun! You're providing a very valuable service that will help influence new products, etc. You should be proud of what you're doing and have some fun while making money.

Drawings, Raffles And Sweepstakes

If you only want to participate in surveys and focus groups that pay cash that's fine but we suggest you consider those that pay in prizes, sweepstakes entries, etc.

If you have the extra time, it's well worth it to take a short 2 minute survey and be entered into a $10,000 drawing - wouldn't you agree? Sometimes the odds are pretty good, and aside from cash you can win nice electronic equipment, household items, etc.

Plus, it's important to realize that market research companies change their offerings all the time depending on what kind of research and surveys their clients need.

A company offering prizes this month might offer a $150 paid survey the next month, which is why we highly recommend you register with as many companies as you can - regardless of what they are currently offering. You just never know!

There's not a whole lot you can do to influence how lucky you'll be, but just realize that the prizes are often significant and can really make a difference for you.

Amount Of Time Spend In Surveys

Aside from #1, this is the other important factor that you have full control over. And again, the time and effort you put into it has to be in line with your goals.

If you only have 1 hour per week to devote to surveys that's fine just don't expect to make a full-time income. You'll get out of this what you put into it, as they say.

On the bright side, you only have to register with each company once and then they will usually continue sending you surveys for years! If you don't have a lot of free time every day, be like the turtle. Slow and steady wins the race.

Do it at your own pace, on your own schedule. No pressure.Got some extra time this afternoon? Great - take an hour and do some surveys. Are you busy tomorrow and need to take the day "off" from surveys? Fine, it's your decision.

Your Profile Vs Opportunitie You Get

When you register with a market research company, you'll be asked various questions which will make up your personal "profile". Be honest this is how they match you up with the profiles desired for particular surveys and focus groups.

Some surveys are very general, but others are very specific. For example, a company may want to get the opinions of men between the ages of 25-45 on various types of cologne. If you're a women, you won't be selected to participate in this survey.

It is very important that you are truthful in all your answers and responses when signing up with the market research companies, so a lot of this is out of your control. Our advice? Provide as much detailed information as you possibly can, in order to give yourself the best chance of getting selected for as many surveys as possible.

Number Of Companies To Register

This is probably the most important factor that will determine your "success" or "failure" because the more companies you register with the more invitations you'll receive, the more surveys you can take, and the more money you will make.

The number of companies you register with should reflect your goals and the amount of money you want to make. It really is as simple as that.

If you just want to make a few hundred extra bucks a month to cover a car payment, you definitely don't need to register with all the companies in our database. Just register with a few at a time when it fits your schedule, and before long you'll reach your goal.

On the other hand, if your goal is to make thousands of dollars a month then you need to register with as many companies as you possibly can. The more the better.

Don't register with 20 companies and expect to make thousands a month, it just won't happen for you. Please ... you need to be realistic.

I've personally registered with over 250 companies and I currently receive more invitations then I can handle. So what I do is just "cherry pick" the best ones. Once you get the initial work out of the way, this is a great position to be in!

Facts About Email Survey

Now that you're all set-up and ready to go, I just want to share a few more tips and tricks to help you get started. I know you're anxious to get going and you're almost there.

One thing to keep in mind is that when we talk about registering with a company, we're talking about the market research companies that actually conduct surveys and focus groups. They are generally hired by large corporations to do the research on their behalf.

Now, you're not going to "get rich quick" by taking surveys, but once you get going you CAN easily generate a steady stream of cash, prizes and free products. I know lots of people that make anywhere from a few hundred to thousands of dollars per month.

Your success with paid surveys will primarily depend on:

1) The number of market research companies that you register with

2) Your "profile" which determines the number and type of invitations you get

3) The amount of time you spend participating in surveys, focus groups, etc.

4) How lucky you are when it comes to drawings, raffles, and sweepstakes

Register With Survey Site

The "hardest" part about making money with paid surveys, focus groups is registering with all of the good market research companies.You have to register with the companies you're interested in. With some you can sign-up and take surveys right away, but others require you to "register" and then they contact you about various opportunities as they become available.

Set-up a Dedicated Email Address for Surveys

Sometimes you can register with a market research company and start taking surveys right away, but many times you'll have to wait just a bit and they will notify you when you've been selected to join a particular survey. They'll usually notify you via email.

Once you get going and have registered with lots of companies, you will start getting A LOT of invitations and you definitely don't want to miss any of those important emails.

For this reason, we highly recommend setting up a separate email address to be used for everything related to your new survey "business." And be sure to check it often!

This way your survey-related email won't be mixed up with your "regular" email, you won't miss any important survey opportunities, and everything will just be a lot easier for you.

Your Internet Service Provider (AOL, Earthlink, Comcast, etc.) should be able to provide you with an additional email address - usually at no charge. Or, you can also set-up a free email address at Yahoo which we think offers the best free email service available.

Paid Email Survey

Why do we have to pay for doing email survey? There are many free email survey site available on the internet, why pay? Because they offers higher returns then those free site.

I only recommend you to join these site after you have made some money from the free sites. Because then you will have some experience and quit after some time, wasting your money.

Below are the top 3 most popular Email Survey program, join anyone for part-time basis. If you are doing this for full time, then you can join all three.
