Exciting new VIP Voice online surveys

 

 



NPDOR has re-launched their panel as VIP Voice! It’s the same great surveys as NPDOR but a brand new name, a great new website and new reward programs just for VIP members!

 VIP Voice is still owned by the NPD Group – a market research company in business since 1967.  They conduct over 12 million surveys in the US and Canada each year.  That’s a lot of survey opportunities and a lot of rewards.

Their surveys cover a range of industries, including footwear, clothing, beauty, automotive, video games and entertainment to name a few.  There’s bound to be surveys that will be interesting for you and will help improve products and services that you use. 

 VIP Voice has great new rewards too! 

 VIP Points – you earn VIP Points for participating in surveys.  When you first join, you start at Level 1 and will get 25 points for your first survey.  After you take your first survey, you will move up to Level 2 and you will then earn 50 points for each survey you take.  It’s easy to move to the next level.  Once you reach level 5, you will earn 200 points for each survey. 

Sweepland – Great sweepstakes all of the time – for example trips, headphones, laptops, CASH!  Use your points to enter the sweepstakes you would like to win.  One point is one entry.  You can even see the sweeps with the most entries and when they are closing.

Bidland – This is pretty exciting!  Great auctions for amazing prizes – for example cruises, bikes, cameras, gift cards!  You decide how many of your VIP Points you are willing to bid on each prize.  New auctions are starting every 30 minutes. You can see previous bids and when the auction is closing. 

Special Offers – VIP Voice offers you discounts for various online purchases just for being a member.  I’ve never seen anything like this from a survey company before.  I love this!  Currently this is only available to members in the US, but hopefully soon it will be for members in Canada as well. 

Join today and you can start winning great rewards AND influencing what products you see in stores!

Why are the Angus Reid Forum and Springboard online survey panels two of our favourite panels?

At SavvySeekers we have been working with some of the top market research companies in the world - and because of this experience, we know market research and we know online surveys! 

At SavvySeekers we list the very best online surveys that will pay you cash and other great rewards for your opinion.  These surveys will also keep your information confidential, they won't send you spam and they won't try to sell you anything. 

Two of our favourite panels are the Angus Reid Forum and Springboard Panels.  Both of these panels are run by VisionCritical.  The Angus Reid Forum is a national Canadian survey panel and was the first panel created by VisionCritical.  The Springboard Panel is run in both the United States and the United Kingdom.  Because the Angus Reid Forum has been running the longest, there are more surveys and more rewards given out to its members. 

So why are these online survey panels two of our favourites?
 
1) These panels offer some of the better rewards for taking surveys - they truly value your time and appreciate your input.  The rewards are given in $ or £ you can then decide if you want to take the survey or not.  There will also be some surveys offering a draw/sweepstakes entry for participating.  These are a great opportunity to voice your opinion and win something bigger for it!
2) VisionCritical offers lots of surveys.  This is especially true in Canada, where the panel has been running the longest, but the US and UK are also getting more and more surveys. This means that there are a lot of opportunities for you to earn some extra money for taking surveys.  With more surveys, you can choose which ones you would like to participate in.  But remember, the more surveys you take, the faster your account will build up.  
3) You can redeem your account balance for a cheque when your balance hits $50 or $25.  With all of the surveys, it won't take long to reach the redemption level. 
4) Angus Reid Forum members redeemed a total of $46,000 in June, followed closely by Springboard US at $38,000 and UK at £6000.  As the number of surveys in the UK increases, the redemptions will increase as well.
5) VisionCritical is one of the best companies for sharing the results of research.  I don't know about you, but I love hearing how my opinions are being used to improve products and services that I use every day.  VisionCritical posts survey results on their panel website so you can see how your opinion makes a difference.

To join the Angus Reid Forum, visit our Canadian Surveys, to join SpringboardUS, visit our US Surveys, and to join SpringboardUK, visit our UK Surveys. We've got more great panels in Ireland, Australia and New Zealand as well!  To learn more about SavvySeekers, visit About Us and to learn more about online surveys we've got lots of great Useful Info.

Do you think online surveys are a waste of your time?

Well, we may not be able to change your mind about that one, but here are some things to think about:

1)  You can make a real difference with your opinion.  Top brands from all over the world conduct market research to improve products and services that you and your household use every day.  I called into a customer service department yesterday to get some information.  Today I got a phone survey about the service I received.  I responded to the survey and told them how I thought they could make the experience better.  I don't know about you, but I have lots of opinions on how things could be improved.  I'm sure I am not alone on my opinions.  Market research surveys are a great way to make suggestions that can benefit everyone.

2)  Maybe you don't need an extra few dollars - but how about donating those dollars to charity?  Many survey companies have an option to send your rewards to charity.  It's the same process as receiving the cheque yourself.  You take surveys and once your account reaches the redemption level, you select the charitable donation option.  The donation is sent by the survey company in your name and will be combined with all of the other members' donations.  Together you can make a big difference by taking free online surveys. 

3)  There are other ways to make larger amounts with online surveys. Many online surveys also have draws or sweepstakes for larger cash amounts.  Amounts range from $100 to $40,000!  Plus, survey companies recruit survey members to participate in focus groups - and focus groups often pay $75-$200.  Maybe that survey for $1 may not be worth your time, but by participating you may be eligible to win a much bigger amount.

Visit SavvySeekers.com to see the list of legitimate online surveys that will pay you for your opinion!

How can I donate to charity for free?

It's easy to donate to charity for free!  There are a lot of online survey companies that give you the option of donating your rewards to charity.  This is a great way to make a huge difference with the money you earn by taking online surveys.

What is the Ipsos i-Say Poll Predictor Game?

What is the Ipsos i-Say Poll Predictor Game?

The Ipsos i-Say Poll Predictor Game is a fun way to enter bonus draws for great prizes.  The object of the game is to guess what percent of people answered YES to a particular question.  You earn entries to bonus draws based on how close your answer is to the actual answer. 

It's easy to play.  At the end of each survey, you will be asked whether you want to PLAY NOW. Answer YES and you will be directed to the game. You will be asked to guess what percent of people responded YES to a question. For example, 'What percent of men answered YES to the question 'Have you ever seen an accident?'  Or 'What percent of Canadian women answered YES to 'Are you a sports fan?' Slide the bar to indicate your response.  The actual percent will be displayed and you will receive draw entries based on how close your guess was to the actual answer.  The closer your guess is to the actual answer, the more entries you will receive.  The current draws will be displayed and you can put your entries into whichever draws you would like to win.  Each month there will be four prizes and one will be awarded each week.  The prizes will change each week, but this week's prizes are a Tissot watch, an Apple iPad, a Weber grill and a Blu-Ray Home Theater. You can spread your entries out or use them all for one prize. The choice is yours!  

You can play the Poll Predictor game at the end of surveys.  You get to play regardless of whether the survey offers points (equivalent to cash) or a draw/sweepstakes.  You also get to play if you don't qualify for the survey.  Once you are a member of the i-Say Panel, you can play anytime without taking a survey first.  Just visit the Poll Prediector rules page for the link.

The Poll Predictor Game doesn't work on iPads and iPhones.  If you want to play, you will need to take i-Say surveys on a PC or laptop. 

The i-Say Poll Predictor Game is a great way to earn even more for your opinion.  Visit SavvySeekers.com to join the i-Say Panel and start earning great rewards!

How do I sign up for Product Tests?

How do I sign up for Product Tests?

Many online survey companies are selecting participants for Product Tests from their online survey members.  It really does make sense - they have a lot of demographic information on their members.  They can also give them online surveys to ask them about the products they are testing.  Not only that, but online survey companies value their members.  Participating in product tests is a great way to earn extra cash and online survey companies would rather give extra cash to its members. 

What types of products can be tested? 

Product tests can cover a whole variety of products. I have seen product tests for cereal, hair colour, cleaning products, coffee makers, and even a washing machine! 

Will I have to pay anything to do a product test?

Absolutely not!  The online surveys on SavvySeekers.com would never ask you to pay anything to test one of their products.  The online survey company will cover all costs associated with the test and will give you a cash reward for participating.  In some cases you will also get to keep the product.  This will depend on what it is.  If you are testing a new product that is in design mode, you may not get to keep it.  If you are testing a product that is already on the market, you will most likely get to keep the product. 

If you are interested in participating in product tests, sign up for online surveys at SavvySeekers.com.  Once you have signed up, don't forget to click the link in the confirmation email to complete your registration and start earning rewards!

Can you really make a lot of money taking online surveys?

The real answer is no.  You cannot make a lot of money taking online surveys.  Of course, the more surveys you take, the more money you can earn.  The number of surveys you will be invited to participate in will depend upon how closely your household demographics match those required by the surveys. 

Although the cash reward may not seem like a lot, you may also get lucky and win a bigger cash prize for participating in surveys. Most of the surveys we list on www.savvyseekers.com have cash draws/sweepstakes.  There are weekly draws, monthly draws and large annual draws - even $40,000!

As more and more clients start sending online surveys, there are more and more ways to earn extra cash.  For example, last week I took a survey for $1.50.  Now $1.50 may not seem like a lot of money, but I had some extra time and my survey account balance was building up.  Each survey gets you closer to the redemption level.  Not only that but, at the end of the survey it said that the client may have additional questions for me.  If so, would I be willing to receive a telephone call with some follow-up questions.  I would be paid $25 if I was called.  Now, that $1.50 survey turned into a potential $26.50. 

I have also seen several surveys that asked if I would like to participate in focus groups.  Sometimes they ask you if you would like to participate in focus groups during the registration and sometimes it is at the end of different surveys.  Watch out for this question - focus groups are a great experience and a great way to earn extra cash.  Here is more information about how to earn money with focus groups.

There are many different ways to earn cash with online surveys.  Even the surveys that don't appear to pay very much could turn into a larger amount - you just never know! 

If you have some free time and are interested in taking online surveys, you can definitely earn a bit of extra money.  I like to save mine and redeem for a special treat for my family.
