I worked with a temp agency for a little while when I was in college, and one of the jobs they assigned to me was with a telemarketing survey company where I called people on a list to take verbal surveys for market research. I lasted about 2 days; it was horrible to interrupt people’s evenings with a bunch of questions. Many times people wouldn’t answer their phone or simply decline to take the survey. People who did consent to take the market research survey were usually cordial, but I always thought I was catching them at the wrong time.
While I didn’t like having to initiate the survey over the phone, I do understand the need for these types of surveys. How else can companies find out what is working and what is not working in terms of their products, target market, advertising, pricing, etc? Market research is an invaluable tool to the success of a company’s product, and the consumers are the only ones who can provide the much needed information.
When I found out that you can take surveys online and get paid to take surveys that made so much more sense to me. First of all, you can take paid surveys on your own time about things you have experience with and products you actually use and would like to help make better. Second, you get paid to take surveys. Market research companies need this information, and they’re willing to pay for it. You can earn up to $75 per survey taking online surveys.
I didn’t know this, but there are hundreds of websites out there where you can sign up to take these online surveys and get paid to do it. Signing up is easy and free, and the companies will send you as many surveys as they can for you to take. Getting paid to fill out surveys for market research purposes is brilliant because it benefits both the companies and the individual.
If you need to make a few extra bucks each day or week, look up taking paid surveys online and see what you can find. Many people successfully supplement their income taking paid surveys or at least make enough extra money to play around with on the weekends. You have to be 18 years old to take online paid surveys, so let your friends and adult children know. Taking paid online surveys is a great way to improve the products and services you use and earn some extra spending cash at the same time.
