DSD Updates

Wondering how it's going with me so far?? Did I make a second sale??

I've been doing this for a 2 or 3 weeks now and run into more obstacles than I realized would be in front of me. Many things have become a reality that I was somewhat worried about, but more there were unforeseen challenges.

Before I go into details of these challenges I want to say that I have made 7 SALES. I have made profit of $50-70 while I'm at work. This has been from a combined effort of DSD techniques along with some of the websites I have highlighted earlier in some of my other posts. By combining Swagbucks you can gain added bonus.  This is something that I just figured out on my own and will expound on in another post when I have more time.

Challenges: I overlooked a detail on an item which was very important.  Amazon had a note that under their item that warned there would be a 3-5 week delay in the shipment. DOH! Someone purchased this very item (Of all my 75 items??? REALLY!?!) So, yeah it was something I ran to and was able to navigate by using another supplier. But just a heads up watch out for stuff like that.

Okay gotta go do my real job!

DS Domination Review

SCAM?? Gold Mine?!? Myth?? FAKE??? Rip-Off?? Before I even begin my review I want to clarify to anyone reading that I am NOT marketing this product.  I am not registered as an affiliate and will not have a link at the bottom of the page to join Under me.  Okay, We good?

Just like you I heard about DS Domination.  Whether you found out from a friend, a webinar, a conference call, or youtube, something about it caught your attention and that's why you are reading this article.  Personally I found about it at work, and listened in on a conference call.  For the first time I was actually impressed with one of these marketing webinars, because it wasn't even about MLM! What I mean is DS Domination actually has a "product" for sale.  By product, I mean strategy or technique. Yes, there is a marketing side of it, but you can totally ignore it if you like.

$20/month.  This is your cost of training with DS Domination.  Now there is NO CONTRACT stipulating that you must keep your membership month to month.  If you benefit from the training and feel that you no longer need the tools provided on the website then you can walk away.  You will still have received a good deal of training.  By paying this fee you receive access to 25+ videos teaching you the sales method.  This videos are made so simply that if you have never made a sale on eBay you can understand them.  Honestly, as a long time eBay user, this is one of my complaints.  I feel like the videos are made for extremely novice users.  Perhaps for you this is a good thing, but it gets annoying and makes me want to hit the Fast Forward!

RESULTS? =Training+effort+time. I do want to share you with you how this program has worked for me, but first want to emphasize a few things.  This program isn't magic.  You can't just log-in to eBay and start making sales. Most eBay users don't want to buy items from a rookie seller. 2/26/14 is when I signed up. After watching a few training videos I posted my first few items on eBay. During this week my selling limit got increased by eBay and now have 51 items listed. Last night I made my first sale and netted a profit of Five Dollars after all taxes and fees counted for.

You need a referral to join DSD, and as I mentioned earlier this is not the place to get one.  Hope this review was helpful. I will make more updates as I continue to use the program.

Does Swag bucks lack swag?

Hello, as you can see from several of my posts I have been involved with online survey taking for several months now.  I have received checks from Sendearnings, Inboxdollars, and CashBackResearch.  Recently, I read a blogger's post that showed up during a search query.  This blogger had a strong opinion that using Swag Bucks would be more successful than Inboxdollars.  I am going to attempt to put this opinion to the test.  Beginning this past sunday I have signed into my account and will see how much earnings I can create.
328 swag bucks. Keep in mind I maintain a part time job of 30 hrs per week with a long commute.  My other days are heavily occupied as well by volunteer work and leisure.  So far I have completed tasks such as: 1 survey, many searches, rejected for 10+ surveys, filling out personal info.  The Search reward already seems much more promising than any other site that I have used.  Yesterday, I was awarded 28 swag bucks for just entering different searches into the engine.

One of my early reactions, is that SB offers a poor start-up value.  Most of the other websites begin you with either an automatic $5, or a quick and easy way to accumulate $5.  I have had to put in a comparatively large amount of work and still have not reached my first $5.  I will reserve final judgement of course, because if the income is consistent in the long run - that would easily trump a slow start up.

Send Earnings review

Is this some kind of scam??

No.  First of all, I am in no way associated with send earnings.  I started using this website during July 2012, after signing up through cashbackresearch.com.  Initial signing up was just a way to earn some credit, but their site is presented very professionally and caught my eye.  Like most anyone getting involved with online business opportunities, I was VERY skeptical at first.  But, all doubt has been cleared after earning a check for $60.

How fast can I earn?

Honestly, you can earn quickly, but not that much.  Your best bet is by taking advantage of the cash offers.  These will only take you a few moments and can net you 25cents up to $10.  Most of these offers will require you to have a valid credit card.  Often they may charge you $1-$4 to get you started, and will continue to charge if you do not cancel your membership before the trial period ends.

How much will I make?

SendEarnings will provide you with multiple options to make money.  If you have a valid credit card you definitely need to concentrate on the cash offers.  The trick is to find the offers that will give you an instant profit without tying you down to a membership.  Sometimes you need to pay-out, but can still net a profit!  One recent offer was for Pimsleur, and while it costs you $12 to your credit card.. your account will be credited with $20.  As long as you end your membership before the trial period you will have profited $8 in two minutes time!

Simply filling out surveys from this website will be of little use.  You can make sometime $.50 after filling out 15-30 minutes of questions.  Often when you fill out the initial 10-15 pages of the survey you will find out that based on your answers you do not qualify.  Answering all the questions honestly only qualified me for 1/4 of the surveys.

PaidEmail is a cool feature that brings in a slow stream of change with no effort required.  Since my last pay-out I have read 116 PaidEmails for a sum of $2.32.  You may consider setting up a seperate e-mail account if you are planning to use this option to avoid clutter.

If you have any questions please feel free to leave comments below and I will answer them promptly!

Blogging for Cash

Uhmm... What?

BLOG = a Web site containing the writer's or group of writers' own experiences, observations, opinions, etc., and often having images and links to other Web sites. - dictionary.com

Essentially by writing about topics that interest you, and others, and having this posted online, you can earn a moderate income.  As with anything you will get paid based on what you put into the process.  All experts will agree that you shouldn't expect any signifficant $$ untill you have a decent product, and a solid fan base.

How much will I make?

The most common way to earn money from blogging is by hosting advertisements.  These ads do not hold a static formula to calculate the income they will produce.  Your income is based on how many people click on your ads.  This is of course impossible to predict!  For example, you may have 20 persons visit your blog and everyone of them decides to click on your ad.  On the other hand, you could have 2,000 persons visit and only 10 click the ad.  Of course, common sense will tell you that the more people that visit your site = MORE clicks, which naturally leads to... yep you guessed it... MORE $$

Getting Started

The great thing with blogging is there is not start-up costs or initial risks involved.  If you have some free time in front of a computer you can start making posts.  You can use your gmail account and get registered with Blogger Start Today!

cash back research

Will they really pay me??

Yes. I became a member of this site from a google search: "How to make cash online" displayed an ad for cash back research and I joined the site.  Before I explain any of the details as to how, here is a picture so you can be confident of payment. 

Screen shot of my PayPal account of payment receipt
How Long??

Became a member on July 4th, 2012 and received payment by July 23rd 2012.  After requesting my $20 payout it took just over 7 days for it to show up on paypal.

Using the Site.

Just by joining this site you already make $5.  You can quickly get $3 by filling out profile information. The next $10 is all about survey panels. Join 12.  You may find that some panels you join won't be credited.  If this is the case you need to contact help .  I had this problem with a few surveys, and so help asked for evidence.  I took screen shots of my confirmation e-mails from several of their panels.  They quickly credited me for these, upgrading me to gold member status. 

The money will not continue to flow in so fast as the first $18.  To get up to $20 you have to either fill out a few surveys 60 cents per, which take 20-30 minutes.  The alternative is to just log into your account everyday.  Each day your log-in you will be credited 5 cents.  Using surveys and logging in you can get to your first payout without much effort.

Who doesn't need an extra $20!?!

Surveys for cash!

 Can I really make money on surveys??

Yes. Don't quit your job anything, but it is possible to make money online by taking surveys and completing tasks online.

I have become a member of several of these sites beginning on July 4th, and have made close to $100 at this point.  With having full-time obligations ,I am only investing a few hours here and there.  I've noticed that they pull you in by having attractive offers that can easily make you $$ without much effort.  After you have completed these, the earnings seem to trail off.

Which websites work??

So far I have made $60.23 from SendEarnings mostly by completing cash offers.  This means that you become a trial member to companies like netflix, and blockbuster, etc.  Some of these will have a small fee of $1-$3, but you will profit from the cash awarded.

Cashbackresearch has already sent me a $20 payment via Paypal.  They don't really have many options to continue making money, but have some easy start up offers that can earn you $20 in an hour of concentrated effort.

Although I started it last, InboxDollars actually gives you the best options.  I have been referring all my friends to this website.  They seem to give the most offers to continue making cash, and quickly reward your account after completing tasks.  So far I have earned about $15 through their website, which is not enough to receive a pay-out.

I read a review that placed globaltestmarket as the premiere survey site, and I have to strongly disagree.  They use a system awarding points instead of dollar amounts.  You can still get a cash payout, but have to do a little math to figure out which surveys are worthwhile.  They don't have any nice bonuses for starting up, but offer a consistent reward per survey completed.  The major downfall for me has been not qualifying for any of the surveys I attempt to enter.

Its free.  Give it a try.  Have fun!
