I have heard negative things about this program, and for newbies I think that it can be a little expensive. I do think that it is possible to get into online marketing for free. Long story short, if you have free money laying around go for it. If you don't have a ton of cash laying around, there are a ton of resources out there for free.

But can you really make that amount of money through surveys?

$10 - $300 Per Online Survey

$50 - $300 Per Hour For Online Focus Groups

$4 - $25 Per Hour For Previewing Movie Trailers

You can easily get a $10 survey or even a $20 one. I don't think I have seen any for more than that. If there are, then they are very rare.

Focus Groups. Pretty easy here to make $50. I have seen many for $100 - $200

Movie trailers. Have not tried that yet.

What I can tell you is that everything here is on the internet for free.
Save your money.

to put it simply, no, it would not be worth the money. you should never pay to do surveys. and as a rule of thumb, if it sounds too good to me true (like so many things in life) it usually is. I love surveys and do well with them, but I never pay a penny to make money with them

No you can not make up to $300 per survey, but you can make a significant amount of money by taking surveys, to pay for the extras. In today's economy, taking paid surveys is a great way to make extra money.

Surveys only pay well if you own or have done something unusual or valuable.

For example: Those who have purchased a brand new Mercedes in the last year might be paid a hundred to come in and answer a few questions after providing proof of ownership.

This happened to a friend of mine and she was happy to take that particular survey.

After I completed my second degree, I was asked to come in and answer some questions about my experience at the college. They filmed it and gave us each a 100 dollar bill on our way out of the room.

It's rare that a survey is worth the time and effort when just about everything else out there pays much better - including a minimum wage job (in the USA at least).

I have yet to see a convincing argument to the contrary.

This is NOT a legit paid survey site, because legitimate survey sites never charge anything.

They probably just give you a list of survey sites (including possible junk sites), and you don't have to pay for this, since you can find it yourself and many websites offer FREE lists of legitimate paid survey sites.

Never pay for survey site listings!!!! OM Goodness what a waste of money. I've made a little money doing online surveys, but find focus groups pay out the best. I tested 2 brands of yogurt, rated them on the computer - took all of 15 min. - out the door they handed me an envelope w/$60 cash in it.!!!

I'd love to get into the previewing movie trailers. If anyone knows how to get in to this line, please let me know.

Anything you have to "pay" to get started should start sending the "ding ding ding" off in your head.

If it was a job, they would be paying you.

Trust me, you'll find that you end up getting lots of spam, but mysteriously, you never seem to have "quite" the right demographics to finish the surveys, or each survey demands that you sign up for more services before you can complete it

I have tried a survey program and was not very happy with it. I was overwelmed with junk e-mails and calls. If someone does elect to pursue taking surveys as a source of income I would highly recommend they use a seperate e-mail account besides their personal one.

Hi, everyone Im new here. When I first entered college I tried one of those paid survey websites. I paid $30 to join and ended up not getting anything in return. The survey never ends and you don't really get cash for doing those. I earned like 1 points for like a 40 minute survey and i remembered like I need to get up to 1000 points for a 5 bucks or something. and by the next day I kept on getting phone calls and junk mails. like prom0406 said get a new email address if you are planning to do the surveys.

If you paid for a list of surveys that over-promised and under-delivered (or even if you just paid for a list, skip the last part)...you weren't really getting into surveys. Don't pay for lists of survey or to join them. That is a scam.

And yes, I am with several specific sites (all which I signed up with individually). I would feel comfortable recommending all of them.
