Paid Survey Tips (below)
How do I ensure I receive
all the paid survey invitations?
Set up an email account
specifically for surveys. And, check this account daily.
Or, if you do use your main
email account (which has its advantages) set up a special folder for surveys.
Then set up a "filter" which will direct any email with a certain word in the
subject or body to a folder of your choosing.
As soon as you receive the
first email from a survey company, add them to your favorites list. Be
sure to mark the email as "Not spam".
What to do after you join the online survey company
After you join these online surveys that pay companies, go to
your email box and hunt down the "confirmation email" that they
send you. Open it up and click the confirmation link. This will verify that you want to do surveys for them.
If you do not receive their email,
check
your "Junk" of "Bulk" folders
(in case the confirmation email was accidentally forwarded
there). Click the "Not spam" link if your email service
provider has such a link (I believe that Yahoo and Hotmail do
have this feature). It is in the junk/bulk folder.
How do I receive payment?
And, how often do they send checks?
Some survey companies will
offer to pay you via PayPal. You may wish to consider going for it as
you'll get paid faster (and don't have to worry about the check getting lost
in the mail!). And, if you live outside the U.S., it might be especially
valuable. Otherwise, they'll send you a check.
As far as how often you'll receive a check??? It varies by
company. Don't fret it. Just get started asap joining companies so
you can get a steady flow of checks coming in (hopefully!).
Privacy? I don't want to be bugged
by a sales person. I don't want to be hit with the hardsell.
Fear not! This ezine
is totally anonymous and automated. We do NOT send
sales letters of any sort. Sure, there are a few ads
from companies INSIDE the issues.
You deal exclusively with our software. There's no interaction with live people (unless you
so desire).
By the way, in issue 10
you'll receive zonealarm download software to make your computer
much more secure and keep your data private.

 Five quick tips to help make your paid surveys experience a success.
-
Consider adding the survey companies to your email address book.
-
Another idea is to
set up a folder entitled "surveys for money".
-
And, if you really
want to be on the "cutting edge" of the surveys for money scene, you
may wish to set up a "filter" whereby any email fitting
certain criteria (say the subject head has the word "survey" in
it) would be directed into the specified folder (which you have
chosen in advance). This way you don't have to wade
through tons of emails to find survey emails.
Look for the word "filter" in your email program. I know
Yahoo has it.
-
Think about giving
the survey companies an email address that you check regularly
so you get wind of surveys for money as soon as possible.
-
Join as many paid online surveys that pay companies as possible. Use the free Form Filler Software
we provide to make it a fair amount easier. And, take
advantage of the direct links the paid survey ezine provides (taking
you straight to the sign up form of each survey site). And,
do it gradually. And, be persistent.
-
I highly recommend
that you subscribe to our free money for surveys newsletter (see the online survey
subscription box above). This way you're far more likely to
join many paid online surveys that pay companies. You'll stick to it.
You know, otherwise you many only join a couple of companies.
-
But, if you don't
want to receive an ezine, here are some paid online surveys that pay companies
to join now.
Bookmarking tip: If you decide to add a page to
favorites (bookmark it), here's a tip worth considering. To sort your
favorites (if you have windows, click Favorite menu, scroll down the list of
urls then right click Sort (near the bottom).
