The only way to get money is to pay for a trial or order something. Idk how you guys are making all this money.
ok, now like I said before, I am new to this and have only been credited about $9 or so. This is the way I understand things from a ex Business Manager as well as looking for all the details in print and looking at extreme details when doing jet mechanics on the F-16 while serving in the USAF. Each item such as a survey, trial, ordering something, etc.. all have different individual credits. Like people who do daily labor or temp services, each job ticket pays differently even for the same type of work. This isn't controlled by the labor pool owner/manager or the service agency, but by the clients that are paying them for that particular job. The way that everything has been explained to me by the information found on this site as well as friends who have experience in these areas is the best way to explain how this works. First, while it is true that for the most part, Trials, Ordering something, etc.. usually pay better right off into the credits means this, they are paying you to actually try something or to order something; this is called Marketing. The hope of the company doing the Marketing is to get you to try their product or service so that you would use it again. By doing this, you are doing another service for them as well, if you knowtise with the studies, the trial or ordering something comes out and therefore completes a good Marketing Research...in other words, you are being payed to be a possible mystery shopper. When one does this type of research, there is more work involved; plain and simple. Now, if you were able to time the length of time in this forum, reading and writing as well as all the time off this forum that you are complaining about the payouts takes out time that you could have earned a few credits..then cash when those credits reach at least $25. Most people who do this according to an article I read in Google stated that they first start by doing all the free stuff, a $1 here and a $1 there adds up and soon you can have the $25 payout. Once you get your check, then instead of blowing it, use it to help pay for the s/h for the physical trial orders, use it to also order something, and/or use it towards the trial costs for the higher credit items. Soon by doing these things you can easily achieve a $100 or more check a month or so. When you look at the credits that become a payout with the small fees for some of these items..such as trials (again a form of marketing tactic), trial orders that require s/h, are better...meaning that you profit credits for payouts are larger than the small fees. On the ordered items, in some ways it would be more like getting a rebate. Off topic a bit more and especially on this thread, when I was still married I bought a color printer for around $98 then after taking off the instant rebate (kinda like a coupon), I was able to pay only $58 and then mailed in the other rebate and got back $48 which means I only paid around $10...not bad for a nice printer by HP (in fact it was the HP Apollo 2200 series). For these items, in some ways by placing an order it is like getting a rebate check. But the fun gets involved if you are asked to do a survey on the same company after you have made your purchase, my exwife does not belong here but another one of these sites (took almost 6 months to get her money though) in which after ordering from a business, she was offered money for answering a survey based on that exact order. The total amount for placing the order (like the rebate) as well as the survey given to her offset the cost of the item that she bought about $0.50..meaning that her total profit was 50 cents...besides doing the physical mystery shopper or something like that, where else can you get paid for doing something that you can do for free. Think about this, some of the surveys have as a bonus where by completing their survey you could win something. While that may be true, here you can complete the survey, be entered to win something and also be credited for it too. In other words, you can make money and win something. The other thing that you may be seeing besides the higher pays/credits for these other areas is time. Some of the people have a lot of time on their hands...therefore they can use more time to take more surveys and thereby getting those $1 and $0.50 credits to add up very quickly. With High speed Internet, a good deal of computer protection against popups, a way to organize and manage time and what they are doing, they can easily get more money credits added to their accounts fast. I'm only mentioning those that claim to make a good deal of dollars within a couple of days (like $50 or more) and also claim that only by doing surveys and such. Yes, with trials and orders that $50 or more can be achieved much quicker. You have to take this, in my own opinion (for what it is worth), like you are an independent self-employed person...in other words take it like you would a business. The more time you put it, the more energy and thought you use, the better you manage your time and space, the more you can earn here. I was once told by a Business professor of mine at UTSA that complainers are those that are quiters and they never win or succeed...mainly because when they fall they look at something else that caused them to do so...in other words they fail to see their own faults. Those that fall do not fail only as long as they get back up see what they did wrong and moved forward. Like this little smiley thing
keeps banging its head against a wall, the wall is not at fault for being there, the smiley is wrong for just not wanting to learn. If a big payout is what you are looking for complaining is just
instead try something else like
climbing the wall or going around it...or even better yet...get a hammer and tear it down
