Earn from Home

If you’ve been reading Pink Coupon Cafe for a while, you might remember that I did a series a while back on reputable sources to earn a little extra income (or rewards – like gift cards) from home by completing surveys. I’ve just received noticed that Synovate Research Panel is once again accepting new members.

I first signed up for the Synovate Research Panel over a year ago, but before doing so I took a few minutes to research the company to see how they rank among other survey panels. Here’s what I found:

  • Synovate is well known for giving their members the opportunity to test full size products in their home.  (I’ve done this before, and it’s really fun!)
  • Unlike many survey companies, your rewards withSynovate are redeemable for cash.
  • Although the number of survey offers may vary depending on your profile information, you can probably expect at least 1 survey invitation per week with compensation in the .50 cent – $5 range.

Immediately upon registering, I received a confirmation email from Synovate. Once I verified my account through the link provided, I received my first “Welcome” survey worth 250 points.

**As with all survey companies, I always recommend that you set up a separate email for your survey invitations.**

If you have a few extra minutes a week, and you’re interested in taking surveys for rewards — check out Synovate Research Panel!

If you’ve been following the blog for awhile, you might remember a series of articles that I wrote last summer on opportunities to earn a few extra dollars (or other rewards) from home.   I thought I would take the opportunity to share a few of those reputable sources with you again over the next few weeks.   We’ll start with Mindfield Internet Panels — since they are currently accepting new members.

Mindfield Internet Panels is FREE to join and sends surveys directly to your email inbox several times per week.

I usually receive between 2 and4 survey opportunities per week from them.  There are two things that I am really impressed with about this company so far:

1.  They reward you with cash paid for surveys completed, and you are able to cash out with a minimum balance of just $5 in your account.  This prevents you from having to wait months to accumulate enough money to receive a tangible benefit.  This also eliminates the need to convert points to rewards.  You are simply paid for what you do.

2.  Each survey email clearly states the approximate length of time it will take you to complete the survey, and the amount of money you will receive upon completion.  This allows you to decide if you have that much time to complete it.

As with all survey companies, I recommend setting up a separate email address dedicated to this purpose.

Check out Mindfield Internet Panels HERE.  If you’re already a Mindfield member, please leave a comment and let us know your experience.

It’s Friday – Mega SwagBucks Day!

by Robin on June 10, 2011

It’s Friday — Mega SwagBucks Day.  On Friday’s you’re even more likely to be awarded higher amounts of Swagbucks for doing your searches though the Swagbucks toolbar.

Are you new to Swagbucks?  It is my favorite way to earn Amazon gift cards.   I joined Swagbucks over a year ago and downloaded the Swagbucks toobar to my laptop.  I now do all my regular internet searches (and navigate around the web) by using the toolbar.  I’m randomly awarded Swagbucks which are virtual dollars that can be redeemed thru the Swagbucks website for all kinds of great gift cards and other items.

Visit Swagbucks HERE to sign up.

Swagbucks is simply a search engine that randomly awards you “bucks” for doing your searches through them.  Since I downloaded their toolbar, I’m awarded bucks daily — which I can redeem for gift cards from awesome places like Amazon.  In fact, I’ve now earned enough bucks for  a Kindle! — Wohoo!!

Pinecone Research

 

Last year I wrote a  series of articles on ways to earn a little  extra money from home.  We spent a good bit of time covering various survey companies.  Today, I wanted to let you know about a great survey company that only takes a limited number of applicants — BUT– if you are accepted, it pays well.

Pinecone ResearchPinecone Research is once again taking applications for new survey panelists.    If you qualify, you will be part of one of the highest paying survey groups available.  (I am waiting to see if I’ve qualified, but I’ve heard that they pay around $3 for each completed survey).

If you are interested, take the short questionnaire HERE to see if you fit into one of the categories they are searching for.    They only open application periods for a short time or until the slots are filled, so don’t wait if you’re interested.

If you’re already a member of Pinecone Research, please leave us a comment and let us know what your experience has been.

Earn from Home – Synovate Research Panel

by Robin on March 2, 2011

If you’ve been been reading the blog for a while, you may have seen the  series I wrote last year on opportunities to earn a little extra money  from home.  One of the easiest ways to earn rewards is from reputable survey companies.    I have written about Synovate Research Panel before, and since I’ve  just received an email that they are currently looking for new members — I wanted to highlight them again.

I signed up for the Synovate Research  Panel several months ago, but before doing so  I took a few minutes to research the company to see how they rank among other survey panels.  Here’s what I found:

  • Synovate is well known for giving panelists the opportunity to test full size products in their home.
  • Unlike many survey companies, your rewards with Synovate are redeemable for cash.
  • Although frequency of survey offers vary depending on your profile information, you can probably expect at least 1 survey invitation per week with compensation in the .50 cent – $5 range.

Immediately upon registering, I received a confirmation email from Synovate.  Once I verified my account through the link provided, I received my first “Welcome” survey worth 250 points.

Don’t forget that today is Mega Swagbucks Day, so be sure to do all your searches through Swagbucks.  It’s amazing how quickly they add up — especially on Fridays when the chances of being awarded higher amounts is greater.
.
If you’ve not yet joined Swagbucks, it is a great way to get rewarded by just using their search engine. I will usually get rewarded 2-3 times a day with between 5-15 swagbucks each time. Collect your Swagbucks and redeem them for gift cards — Like from Amazon.
.
Here’s a hint for getting more Swagbucks. — Download the toolbar.  I usually don’t like to add toolbars to my computer, but since I’ve downloaded the Swagbucks tool bar, I’ve gotten into the habit of doing all my searches through them. I am amazed at how quickly my Swagbucks total is growing now that I use it all the time.

I’m saving my Swagbucks for  a Kindle Wireless Reading Device — and I’m almost there!
