Frequently Asked Questions

Q. "Why are companies willing to pay me to take surveys and provide my opinion on their products or services?"

A. Smart business people know that they don't have the ability to guess about what their customers want. Because big companies spend billions of dollars on advertising and launching new products, they can't afford to make a mistake. That's why they're willing to pay consumers for their opinion. The cost of paying you is far less than they money they'll lose if the "get it wrong" out in the marketplace.

Q. "I'm confused about the difference between a survey and a focus group. Can you help?"

A. Sure. A "Focus Group" is a group of people that a business invites to get together, either in person or online, to talk about a new or existing product or service, watch a commercial, or participate in some other way. A focus group is different from a survey because, in a focus group, you have interaction with other members of the group. In a survey, you do the work alone."

While you can earn good money taking surveys, you can usually earn much more by participating in a focus group. Some focus groups pay as much as $150 or more!

Q. "Will the survey questions be difficult to answer?"

A. No, not at all. In fact, most questions only deal with your opinion about a particular product or service, whether you think the price is fair, if you would buy that product or service for yourself, and other basic questions. Of course, you'll never be asked to actually buy anything, and you'll never have to do any research, maths, or hard work at all. It's really almost hard to believe it, but you only have to give you opinion to get paid! If you are ever asked a question that you don't feel comfortable answering, just skip it.

Here's an example of a typical survey just so you can see how easy they really are to answer. This survey isn't real, so don't bother filling it in.

"Well, it's been just two days since I joined and I've already been asked to complete three surveys, and I'm being considered to join a focus group. Woo hoo!"

Q. "Will I have to invest a lot of time doing this?"

A. That depends upon what you consider "a lot of time". Most surveys can be completed in under 10 minutes, and focus groups run between 30 minutes to an hour or so. So, as far as I'm concerned, the answer is "No", you won't have to invest a lot of time. Also, keep in mind that you're always free to say "No thank you" when you receive a survey or focus group invitation, so you're always in full control of how much time you invest as well as how much money you earn.

Q. "I work unusual hours, will that impact my ability to take surveys?"

 A. Not at all. In fact, you can take surveys at 2:00 in the morning, 2:00 in the afternoon, or any time in between. The only thing is that you have to make sure that you've completed and submitted the survey by its due date. And don't worry, most surveys give you a multi-day window to find the time to complete it.

Q. "Do I need to fit a certain profile in order to be offered surveys?"

A. Not at all. While some surveys may have specific requirements from time to time, like age, or race, or sex, most do not. Plus, there are more than enough "general purpose" surveys to keep you busy for a lifetime!

Q. "Is there any limit on the amount I can earn each year?"

A. The sky's the limit! None of the survey companies have any income limits. They WANT you to earn a lot of money so you'll stay with them for a long time . Register with every survey company we recommend and you'll have the opportunity to earn plenty.

Q. "Do I have to live in the United States in order to participate?"

Q. "Does your company pay me for taking surveys?"

A. No, you get paid directly by the company that offers you the survey or focus group opportunity. Some companies will pay you by PayPal, some will mail you a check, and others may want to pay you by depositing money directly to your bank account. Most companies will offer you multiple ways to get paid.

And don't worry. You'll always know exactly how much a focus group or survey pays and how the company wants to pay you before you spent a moment of your time answering questions.

Q. "Do I need any special training? How long does it take to get started?"

Q. "How many survey companies do you give me access to?"

Q. "Do I have to pay taxes on the money I earn?"

A. That depends upon where you live, how much you earn, and your tax status. You're paid as an independent consultant, so the survey companies do not take out any taxes. If you're not sure about your tax requirements, talk to an accountant or tax professional.

Q. "How much money will I make for each survey?"

Q. "What's the breakdown of companies that pay cash as opposed to those that pay some other way?"
