Frequently Asked Questions

Why are companies willing to pay me for my opinion?
To cut a long story short, Big companies would lose millions of dollars on product development and marketing costs if they didn't first ASK what their customers wanted before launching a new product or service. Imagine a big toothpaste company launching a new toothpaste that was BLACK in color. It could be the most advanced toothpaste in the world, but YUCK! I wouldn't want to put it in my mouth, and I'm sure others would feel the same way. No one would buy it!

So they hire out Research Companies to conduct surveys or focus groups to find out what we like, what we want, what our purchasing habits are etc This data is then collated and fed back to the company to help direct their marketing and production efforts. If we the people say, we like toothpaste that is white, or blue or tri-colored, then that's the message that companies need to decide what color to make their toothpaste. Rather logical isn't it?

So to make this all work, the Research Companies need everyday men and women to take part in surveys or focus groups. Specific questions are put together to get the data that is required. Prior to the Internet, this information was usually gained via telemarketers. They'd call you up on the telephone, usually around dinner time and ask you a series of questions. But now, with the Internet it has become a lot easier.

The Good News is that in order to motivate people to answer these survey questions, they actually pay in cash or rewards. We give the info they want, and they give us what we want..... Money!!!!
See, it's a WIN - WIN arrangement..

How will I get paid?
Because it's the Research Companies that are organising these surveys or focus groups, they are the ones that handle the payments. Although behind the scenes, they are working for Big Corporations (and you rarely get to find out who), it's the Research Companies that pay you.

Every Research Company does it a slightly different way. But generally, you will earn points every time you successfully complete a survey or focus group. And then you can redeem these points for cash or rewards. Some allow you to redeem for cash only, others allow you to choose, while others allow you to redeem for rewards only. The good part is, when you're invited to do a survey or focus group, they tell you upfront - then you decide what you want!

Each Research Company will have different pay periods. Some are fortnightly, and some are monthly. And because you'll be working for many different ones, you'll be sure to be getting something each fortnight at the very least.

How quickly can I start making money?
You could start making money within 24 hours! But this will depend on a number of factors. It depends on how many Research Companies you sign up with. It'll depend on how committed you are to complete each task I provide for you. It will also depend on what each Research Company is looking for.

When a survey or focus group is prepared, they are usually targeted to a specific consumer. For example, the toothpaste company may want to find out what 18 - 24 year olds think about the toothpaste they use. And if you are older, then it stands to reason that you won't be invited to that survey. BUT, at the same time, there may be a dozen other Research Companies desperately looking for people just like you. The key thing to remember is, the more Research Companies you sign up with, the more survey or focus groups you'll be invited to. And the quicker you can sign up, the quicker you will start making money!

When you join our FREE membership, you will be given the Best Research Companies to sign up with. In fact, we have waiting for you our proven 5-step launch sequence to get you up and running in the quickest possible time. It's already laid out for you to follow step by step. It couldn't be easier!

But I want to say to you that if you are expecting a Get Rich Quick Scheme, then you have come to the wrong place. I am not going to hype you up with empty promises of wealth, fancy houses and fast cars. I can't stand people who do that. Its a huge turn off for me, and I usually just run the other way. If my basic website doesn't have enough glitz and glamour and Hype for you, then well I can recommend some for you if you like. They'll be all pretty and fancy and nice to look at, but will be all to willing to rip you off at the same time.

Please, only sign up for a FREE Membership if you are totally committed to making this work for you, and can stick it out until you start seeing the results.

How can I be sure that this isn't just some sort of SCAM?
You know when I first came across this, my alarm bells went off too! I thought that this was another one of those nasty scams you hear about on TV. I was very sceptical. But at the time, I was struggling to make ends meet and needed to make more money fast! So I just tried it. I signed up with over one hundred research companies, and I got so many invitations it wasn't funny. So I locked my self in my room, and did each one. I kept doing this for two weeks, all the while I wondered if I was simply getting conned. But then you know what happened? I got paid!! I remember clearly almost halving my huge credit card debt over night!

Well, the rest is history. I kept doing more and more of these. I gotta tell you that I'm glad I didn't shy right away from doing this. Who knows where I would be now?

This isn't a scam. In our members area we only deal with solid reputable Research Companies that rely on us to do the right thing as much if not more, than we rely on them to do the right thing. You gotta think, that BIG DOG corporations are hiring these Research Companies. How would it look if they got caught associating with questionable research companies. They'd go out of business overnight!

Anyway, I know what your feeling at the moment, but you got nothing to lose joining our FREE membership area. There's nothing to buy, just a proven 5 -step system to follow. If after the first week you're not convinced, you can just walk away, no questions asked. You've got nothing to lose - it's worth a try, isn't it?

This seems too good to be true - where's the catch?
There's no catch! And you're right, it does sound good - and that's because it is good! You're not being tricked or scammed in any way here. It is a simple WIN - WIN business transaction. You trade your opinion for cash / rewards. That's all there is to it, period!

Actually I can't stop raving about this opportunity - in case you haven't already guessed... I tell every one I know about it. Actually that's why I put this web site together, coz everyone wanted me to go over and show them how to get started - I'm too busy doing surveys ;-)

I'm not sure this will work for me?
I understand this one big time! Like how does anyone know something will or won't work until they actually see it for their own eyes. When you've been struggling like me to pay bills for so long, you just can't imagine making money simply by sitting at a computer screen. It's like you feel so down about your situation, it's really hard to allow yourself the pleasure of dreaming that you can turn it all around.
So it can work for you too, but you need to follow every step of my system.

On the other hand, if you're the type of person that's half hearted, not committed to working at it and can't follow a step-by-step guide, then this opportunity probably isn't for you.

What do I need to be able to do this?
To be successful with this, you need to be very well organised, methodical and be committed to doing the work. That means doing every task within our 5 step launch sequence to get you going. Have you got what it takes so far?

Also, you need a computer with Internet access. This doesn't mean it has to be your computer. You just need a computer on the Internet to do the work. You can do this work from your home, from an Internet cafe or anywhere else you can use a computer. Even your local library!
 

Can anyone do this?
You just need to be over the age of 18 years of age. Although most of the Research Companies prefer US based citizens, we have made available a comprehensive list for those living in other Countries like Australia, and the United kingdom. When you enter the Members area, you simply need to select the country you are in, and away you go.

What's the difference between a 'Survey' and a 'Focus Group'?
A Survey is simply one or two pages of questions. When you're invited to participate in a survey, you log into the Research Company's website. You answer the questions openly and honestly, then you submit it. Usually there are about 10 -30 questions which are very easy to answer. EG How many times a week would you visit your grocery store? Or How many gallons of orange juice would you consume per week?

A Focus Group is a group of individuals who join together on an online chat or discussion forum to share their opinions in a more direct manner to the company. This is similar to like an interview about certain topics that the company wants data about, and they ask you directly. These are more interactive than surveys, and can take longer to complete.

How many Surveys or Focus Groups can I do?
This is up to you! Remember it's a numbers game. The more Research Companies you sign up with, the more invitations you'll receive. The more invitations you get the more Surveys or Focus Groups you can do.
You are not controlled by these companies to say you can only do so many per week. You can do as many as you want to - it really is up to YOU! In order to get started in the right manner, follow our 5-step launch sequence and complete every task. This will get you buzzing with invites and then you can control how many you want to do.

How long does each one take to do?
Every survey or focus group will be different. Suffice to say, that the longer they are, the more it will pay. Surveys will take anywhere from 10 to 45 minutes to complete, while Focus groups are anywhere from 60 - 90 minutes. The thing about focus groups are, is that's where the big dollars are. They can pay you about $150 for each one you do - not bad for just telling them what you think!

How can I be sure that these companies will pay me what I'm owed?
The Research Companies we work with are legitimate and reputable organisations. Their reputation is based on the quality of data they provide the companies they work for. If they were to try and scam the people completing their surveys, then this will start to show in the data they get. Word gets around fast over the Internet, and if we hear of any company trying to rip us off, then we'll black list them from our database.

What kind of questions will I be asked?
Think about it from the companies point of view. They want to be able to sell more of their product or service. And the only way they can do this, is by selling exactly what YOU (the consumer) wants. So lets say we use the Teeth Cleaning example. Questions could include things like:
1. What brand of toothpaste do you use?
2. Which of the following flavors do you prefer?
3. Do you prefer using a Standard toothbrush or an Electric one?
4. Which of the following is a fair price for a new toothbrush?
5. How often do you replace your toothbrush

They're pretty straight forward questions aren't they? Do you think you'll be able to answer those sorts of questions? Then why not go get your FREE Membership and make a start right NOW?
 

What's your involvement in all of this?
I was getting hassled all the time by friends and family to show them how to do what I do. I don't blame them - I raved so much about it ;-) I started going over and sitting down with them at their computers and running them through the process I followed. But soon it seemed I was doing that more than the work I needed to do. So I put together this basic website for my friends to use. I made a list of all the questions I kept getting asked, and answered them - and that's what I'm typing up right now LOL.
So my job is to keep my database of Research Companies updated, which I do anyway so it's no big deal. And my friends always want 'in' on the HOT deals that come my way, so I email them out when I get them. So all I do is the teach you 'HOW' part and tell you 'WHERE' to find the best Research Companies. It's then up to you how far you take it.

What does it mean to 'sign up' with companies?
So by now you will have heard me say this is all a numbers game, right?. The more companies you sign up with the greater your potential is to make money. When I say "companies" I am referring to the Research Companies that conduct all the surveys and focus groups.

In order for these companies to know you exist, you need to tell them who you are etc. So you go over to their web site, and you sign up. You simply enter your name, address, age, gender etc Most of these companies will have a section on their website where you can add your profile. LISTEN UP!! Take your time and make sure you complete an accurate profile about yourself - and keep it updated. This will be how they choose 'who' to invite for their surveys or focus groups. If you don't provide enough detail in your profile, then you may miss out on a lot of opportunities.

If there is one rule I abide by, it is to ALWAYS do the right thing by these research companies. Remember it is a WIN / WIN arrangement. Don't try and trick them. Just be honest when filling out your profile.

How about my PRIVACY, is it safe?
This was a BIG deal for me when I came to my first sign up page. I said....."What are you going to do with my address?" I remember being quite put off by the whole sign up process, and it took me a while before I did it. Once I did the first one, the rest were easier.
There are laws in place to protect us, and the reputable Research companies I use take these laws very seriously and abide by them. They will never reveal your private details to anyone unless you give them permission to do so. Read each of their privacy policies if you want to get a better understanding on how they'll handle your personal information. You'll find they all do the right thing, because it's in their interests to make you feel secure so you'll sign up with them.
For me, I needed to "just get over it", coz I needed to make some extra cash like yesterday! And in order for me to do this, I needed to give them the info they needed.

Won't I end up getting SPAM emails after I sign up to all these companies?
Providing you stick with the companies on our list you should be OK. The only emails you should get are from the research companies telling you about their offers. And trust me, you WANT to get a lot of emails from them. Just imagine you just started a new Scrapbooking business. To get started you pay for some advertising, you put up some signs on every corner, in shop windows etc etc to get your name out there. This is the same thing as "Signing Up" with lots of companies.

Now back to our Scrapbooking business, what you want is to get your phone ringing off the hook with work, right? The more calls you get, the more jobs you'll land. It's the same deal with getting email from these research companies.. The more emails you get the more invitations the more work for you!

One thing I will recommend is to keep your work email separate from your personal email. So in the members area, I will show you how to set up a separate email address that you can JUST use for the survey companies you sign up with. Anyway, that's what I did and it keeps my inbox nicely organized.

Will these survey opportunities ever run out with so many others doing them already?
There's no question that this is a hot opportunity happening right now. And that's why lots of people are doing it. But there are millions of companies around the world that NEED to ask us for our opinion. So no, I don't think this will ever end. Companies will always need to conduct market research, and we will always need to be motivated via a payment of some sort to provide the data they need.

So there is no need to be concerned that others have already doing this for a while. There is more than enough to go round for us. And in the members area, I will share with you some tips and secrets I uncovered along the way to make it a hell of a lot easier for you to succeed in this business.
