{Earn Money Online} MindField Panel: How does it work?

Learn how to make money online with MindField Panel:

Step 1: Sign up! You can get started here with a quick sign up.
Step 2: After you sign up, they’ll send you an activation email. Click that to verify your account, and then you’re ready to get started.
Step 3: Fill out as many member questionnaires as you have time for. These are optional, and you don’t get paid for completing them, but they help to match you with surveys. That means, the more you fill out, the better the surveys you’ll get.
Step 4: Wait for you first survey! They send out emails pretty often, so it shouldn’t be long until you get your first one. So check your email often, and complete a survey as soon as you can, before it’s filled up.
Step 5: Give your opinions. When you get the email invite, it will tell you what reward you’ll earn for completing that survey. You’ll get paid for it 10-14 days after the survey closes. {This doesn’t mean right after you finish, but once the survey has been filled and closed. Might be right away, might be a week.} Also, once in a while you won’t qualify for a survey you attempt to take. If this happens, they still give you an entry into their BIG prize drawing.
Step 6: Get your cash! Once your account has $5, a link will appear on the right side of the screen under the Member Summary, letting you that you can request a check. $5 is the minimum checkout amount but you are allowed to let it grow as large as you want before cashing out. Once you have requested a check, it will be processed within one week and mailed to the address that you have on file.

Easy peasy, right? I’ve used this one for a long time now, and have never had any problems with it at all. If you have any questions, leave them in the comments and I’ll answer them for you!

Bloggers: Looking for new Affiliates?

I’ve had a TON of people ask me about affiliate programs lately, so I thought I’d share a quick bit of info!

New Blogging Series

I’m putting together a series of posts about how to earn extra income with your blog, how to run great giveaways, and some cool networks to join. It will start Sunday, July 3, so stay tuned!

I’m no expert, obviously. But I’ve learned a lot of great tips that I’d love to share. I get so many emails with questions from you guys, and I feel bad that I don’t always have time to get back to people quickly. So hopefully putting together this series will help answer a lot of questions!

Affiliate Programs

These are top 3 easiest affiliate programs to get started with:

I was a fan of MySavings daily email updates before I had a blog! {Check them out here: Free Samples, to see what type of goodies they share daily.} I’ve had a really good experience with them.

Logical Media is another great one… Not quite as simple to use, in my opinion. I don’t like the way you search for campaigns, but a lot of people love the way they do it. Maybe I just am not smart enough to “get” it, lol.

And finally, Escalate Media, which is my favorite. What I love about them is the personal attention… They are super quick to respond to email questions, and they do webinars regularly to give you helpful tips. Love ’em.

Post Your Questions!

If you have any questions about how affiliate’s work, or one of these companies in particular, leave me a comment! Or if you have questions about anything blog related, or a helpful tip you’d like to share… Comment away, ladies!

If I use your tip in the series, I’ll definitely credit you and link to your blog. I’d love to know what you guys would like to learn more about, so I can make sure to put together as much helpful info as I can!

Have a great weekend, and enjoy the sunshine!

New Product Tests: Diapers and Detergent!

MySurvey

The longer I use MySurvey, the more I’m a fan! I used to only check in with their surveys once in awhile, because they were a newer company for me, and I guess I just wasn’t used to using them much. But oh boy, lately they’ve been rockin’ my socks!

Make-up and diapers and detergent, Oh My!

In the past couple of months, I’ve gotten to test a full size Cover Girl mascara, and a set of three really great plug-in fragrance units.

Then, last week or so, I took a survey that ended with a message stating that I would get to test out a FREE package of 24 diapers in my little girls size, and give feedback. Diapers are pricey, so you KNOW I loved that! They should arrive any day.

Then tonight, I took a survey that ended with a message that I’ll get a FREE 3 week supply of detergent AND a fabric softner, to test and give opinions on! Love it, right?

Join me at MySurvey!

MySurvey – Take Surveys, Earn Rewards, It’s Easy & Free! Click Here to join me.

You get points for every survey you complete. And I love that you get points EVERY time you attempt a survey… If you don’t qualify, you still get a few points for trying. And they screen you really quick, so you don’t waste your time!

Then, you sometimes get the FREE product to test out and keep. AND you get rewarded with more points for sharing your thoughts on what you try out.

Those points can be redeemed for cool merchandise like tshirts or DVD’s, or even cool kitchen goodies. Or just swap ’em for gift cards like I do… It only takes a few surveys to have enough for a $10 Amazon card!

Love it… What are YOUR favorite survey sites?? Any more good ones I should know about…??
