If you’re looking for a GREAT survey company to make some extra money, Pinecone Research is it!
Have you ever taken one of those insanely long screener surveys with other survey companies only to be told at the end that “sorry, you don’t qualify for this survey.” I have, and it’s incredibly frustrating! With Pinecone Research, they send you brief (it takes 2-3 minutes to complete at most) “household surveys” and based on that, they determine what surveys you qualify for. So, when you get an actual survey from them, you’re qualified! I have also done product test studies for them. Usually, they send you a product to try for a set amount of time and then you receive compensation at the end for completing a survey about the product. Sometimes you have to return the product and sometimes you get to keep it.
Pinecone Research compensates you for your time by paying a flat $3 per survey (you do not receive compensation for the brief household surveys). You can receive payment via Paypal (I usually receive mine within a day of completing a survey) or by check.
You can only sign on with Pinecone Research during open referral periods, so you want to jump on this opportunity. I have been with them for almost five years now and they are definitely my favorite survey company to work for!
