Survey Tips

Create a New Email Account

Surveys Routine strongly encourages all individuals that are committed to taking paid surveys to create a new email address. The main reason that give people this survey tip is you can just go right down the list of emails and take each survey where if you use an existing email address you may get distracted by a personal or work email. You can even get fancy with it if you want. You can have all emails from “Company A” sent to one folder, emails from “Company B” sent to another folder and so on. Okay, that is our first tip, let's continue to rest of our survey tips.

Sign Up for PayPal

I know many users of the internet already have a PayPal account but if you don’t, I recommend signing up for it. Not only is PayPal a great tool for websites like eBay but it is also helpful for people who take surveys as well. Many survey companies will offer you the option of a check or PayPal but sometimes they will only offer PayPal. You do not need to create a whole new account if you already have one. However, I would add your email account that you created for surveys to your existing account so it will not provide a conflict between your email address you gave the survey company and the PayPal account. For instance, some companies may just assume that your PayPal email address is the same as the email address that you gave them which may lead to payment problems which will take days to solve. All it takes is a few minutes to add a secondary email address to your account. It is definitely worth it.

Sign Up for Quality Survey Companies

One of the major reasons that people believe taking surveys for money is a scam is that they do not sign up for legitimate survey companies. Frequently, those that are new to the survey industry will get frustrated because they signed up with companies and receive surveys only to find out about half way through the survey that they do not qualify. This leads many to believe it is impossible to make money taking survey but we know its not.Surveys Routine has compiled a list of survey companies that we have received payment or rewards for surveys and we believe they all are user friendly and will not be a waste of time. 

Organize the Survey Companies that you Signed Up With

If you are going to make money taking surveys, you should have at least 30 companies that you signed up for. Each one has a different username and password. I recommend that you take all that information put it onto a word document and print it out and keep it in a safe. This way, you will not have to worry up forgetting your passwords. Some survey companies may not get back to you for a day or two which means you might have lost out on a few surveys. Make sure you keep the usernames and passwords in a safe place so that you do not lose it and that someone will not steal your identity.

Get Your Records Straight

Some people do not keep any records of the surveys that they take or what companies that they took the surveys for. In my opinion, this is ridiculous. If you want to make money, you have to take it seriously. When I take surveys, I make sure I write all the information down about the survey, the survey company, survey ID, anything that I can do to track the payment or reward points for that survey. For instance if I don’t get paid my money for a survey, it would a lot easier to obtain the money if I had all of the information regarding the survey all I would have to is send an email or call the company and ask them why my payment for survey id number #### didn’t post to my account yet. In addition to that, you can see what survey companies you are receiving more money from. You can do a lot of neat stuff in Excel. I am a statistic junkie. I have the average money I get paid per survey by company, my % of surveys that I take and am qualified for broken down by company and more.

Save Time With Roboform

For those of you like want to save time, Roboform is the tool for you. The best thing is that is free. Roboform will automatically fill in survey information for you which you have to enter into the program. There are two versions of Roboform: the free version of Roboform and the “Pro” version. The pro version has all of the features of the free version with a few more. I believe the free version will work just fine for most, but if you are interested you may order Roboform Pro by clicking here.

Stay Committed

This maybe the most important tip out of all the survey tips that I have provided you with. Many people do not stick with surveys long enough to give them a chance. They will take surveys for a few days maybe even a week and not have the results they are looking for. This is not a get rich quick scheme. The more surveys that you take with a company, the more they are going to trust what you have to say about a product/service. A survey company is not going to pay someone that has only completed few surveys that much to start off with but as you take more surveys, your earnings will increase. I like to think of it like a real life business. If you were a business owner, which of the following employees would you pay more? An experienced worker at your company or some new person with no experience at all? You have to stay committed, before you know it you may make up to $75 a survey!

These are all the survey tips that I have for now. For those of you that are getting ready to enter the exciting World of surveys, good luck. Those who have already begun their venture, hopefully these tips will be enough for you to have great success.
