Making Money in Your Spare Time With Paid Research Surveys

Times are tough, we can all use a little extra cash. This article will show you how to make as much as $1500 a month online, and you can do it in your housecoat and slippers.

What if I told you, you could make this money doing something as simple as completing online surveys?

Paid Surveys you say? But aren’t they a scam?

Yes, there are some scams out there, so you have to be careful, as always if it sounds too good to be true it likely is.

But there are some real, and legit sites that pay cash for your opinion.

Why would they do that?

The short answer is Big Companies spend huge dollars on market research.

It only makes sense to ask the public what they want, and try to give it to them.

If you were going to spend millions on R&D or marketing, wouldn’t you first like to see the public’s reaction? You would be crazy not to conduct market research.

Previously companies used to engage telemarketing companies to conduct telephone surveys, fortunately for us all, this trend is almost gone. The final death stroke being the national do not call registry. If you aren’t yet, there are links in the about the author area. Register your phone number, and the telemarketers are supposed to stop calling. (Although they don’t all follow the rules, at least most will, and the rest can be reported.)

So it only makes sense for these companies to sign up survey takers across many demographics, and pick their brain when they need info or input. There are thousands of surveys available. Finding the ones you qualify for is the challenge. One of the best ways to find lots of online surveys is to sign up with a service that lists current surveys available, and can alert you to surveys that suit you and your demographic. As you may have guessed you will have to tell them something about your demographic, so they have an idea whether you fit in to the marketing demographic for this survey. If you sign up to one of these alert services, make sure to use a disposable address from hotmail or gmail, so you can just close the account if you don’t want to do it anymore.

Its not free money, but is very simple and in some cases interesting. A lot of people enjoy taking surveys, and when you can earn more than $10 for 20 minutes of your time your doing pretty good. That’s $30 per hour and you can do it in your pajamas, listening to music and drinking coffee.

This is no GET RICH QUICK scam, there is some work involved and it does take your time, plus you do have to sell a little piece of your brain to the big corporations.

You aren’t going to get rich doing it either, but you may just earn $1,500 a month in extra cash. Which is way better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick :-)
