December 26th, 2009 Posted in Niche Store Builders

The economy is in a downward spiral, unemployment is over 10%. Lots of people, strapped for cash are looking for ways to make extra money.

You can certainly make money on the Internet, but where to start? Most ways of making money demand a certain amount of skills and training. There is a learning curve involved, long study and substantial cash investment. There are exceptions, however…

Lots of people look to legitimate paid surveys as a way to make extra money without having to invest a lot of time and money. If you are a consumer, with enough computer skill to send and receive e-mails, then you can get paid for surveys that pay.

Here’s the why and how of this business: Large companies must have feedback from consumers to plan new products and improve existing ones. They also need that feedback to measure the effectiveness of their advertising.

65-70% of the economy of the U.S. and other developed countries is made up of consumer spending. Almost all big companies have very little or no contact with the ultimate consumers of their products and services. Everything gets sold through retail outlets, distant from the manufacturers.

The large companies hire market researchers to measure public opinion and tell them what people think. Market researchers use mostly surveys to measure consumer opinion. Almost all of these surveys are now done over the internet, online.

Surveys are a very big business on the Net. Thousands of surveys are being made each and every week. So how do they get people to take the time to fill out those surveys? They pay them. Surveys pay from $5 to $150 each. Most are in the $10 to $25 range. Not a lot of money per survey, but they don’t take much time and they add up quickly.

Many survey takers report incomes of over $1,000 per month! It might be a good idea to check out taking legitimate paid surveys.

Hundreds of millions of dollars are going to pay people to participate in paid online surveys. Part of that could be coming to you…
