Earning an Income by filling out Surveys online is Easy, Convenient and Profitable

 

Yes. It is very possible to earn money from home filling out surveys, testing products and joining Focus Groups. In February of 2007, I earned $896 working 30 odd hours at night at home just filling out surveys online. I did not even bother trying to earn more doing focus groups and product testing. I was just trying to see how much money I can make in my spare time. I am happy for the extra pocket money.

Now my younger sister is doing this as much as she can (she is a mother of 2 babies) in her free time. She has been making approximately $1,900/month for the last 3 months. She is ecstatic and thanks me everyday for showing her how to do it.:)

I live in Thailand and cannot do many product testing and focus groups so my income is somewhat limited. But any money I make is free money to me.

Today I want to share with you the incredible way you too can earn money doing surveys and focus groups and possible product testing from the comfort of your home.

How do you make money?

you can make pretty good money just taking surveys! Like:

  • Take online surveys: from $5 to $75 each (sometimes more)
     
  • Participate in Focus Groups: up to $150 per hour
     
  • Try new products: $5 to $10 or even more (plus you get the products free!).
     
  • Take telephone surveys: up to $120 per hour.
     
  • Preview new movie trailers: anywhere from $4 to $25 per hour.

Why Companies Pay YOU to take Surveys?

US companies spend over 200 Billion dollars trying to convince people to buy their "stuff". And while they spend most of that money on advertising, they also spend a great deal of money on research - finding out what people really want to spend their money on.

 

These companies know that most people are just too busy to "help" them out for free. They know they have to reward people for giving up their precious time. So in most cases they pay - anywhere from $1 to answer a few questions, to as much as $150 per hour in some cases.

 

Knowing what consumers think tells companies how to spend that $200 Billion in advertising and marketing. That's important to those companies, so because of that they're willing to pay for the right information.

What are Focus Groups?

A "Focus Group" is simply a group of people brought together by a research company to discuss and give comments about products and services. It's an open-ended group discussion, usually led by one person from the research company. They are very low-key, and easy to participate in. If you like giving your opinion, you'll love Focus Groups.

 

It used to be that Focus Groups were only done live in person... but these days they are often held online. If you want to participate in Focus Groups, there's good money to be made - as much as $150 per hour.

  What kind of answers You will have to Answer?

 

Normally, the questions are meant to get your honest opinions on the products you buy (or might not buy), why you buy some products in preference to others, what prices are too much or too little for a product, how much you regularly spend on certain products, etc.

 

As long as you don't mind answering questions like those, you should be perfectly comfortable with the surveys you will be taking.

 

And remember, the decision is always yours - if there are certain questions you don't want to answer, you don't have to. You're the boss!

How much Time is Required to do these Surveys?

Many take only 5 minutes to complete. Others take longer, of course - but those usually pay more!!

 

Focus Groups take longer - going from 1 hour to as much as 2 hours. They usually pay much greater amounts of money because of the larger time investment, so for many who take surveys for a living, Focus Groups a favorite activity.

You always get the specifics right up front,, you always know how much time it will take, and you always are free to decide how much time you invest and how much money you want to make.

 

Focus Groups are usually a lengthier process - lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours or even longer. As with surveys, the compensation rises along with the participation necessary.

 

How much Money can You make?

 

There really is no set limit surveys and focus groups you can take part in. The only real limits are how many survey companies you register with, how much information you're willing to share with them, and the details of your personal profile. And of course how much time you want to or are able to work.

 

Not every person will qualify for every survey - for obvious reasons. If a survey is about a product intended for 18-year-old boys, a 40-year-old woman won't be able to participate in that study.

The good news: there are plenty of surveys to keep you busy, no matter who you are.

 

Enjoy as much income as you can make - it's up to you.
