Product Testing Information

Thank you for reading my first blog of many to come! I am a first time mom of a handsome baby boy who is 5 months. I stopped working when I was 4 months pregnant (After working for 4 years, I had to find something to keep me busy...keep in mind i'm only 20). I started watching my wonderful twin nieces and decided I would be a SAHM. I wanted something to do during the day, something easy but fun. I started looking into jobs that I could do from home. NO LUCK. All the websites I visited were all the same, and spam. I then started to look into product testing, it sounded like something I would love to do, and it is! It took a lot of research to find good legit sites for this, but after searching and searching I have found some GREAT ones! It's very easy to qualify for most of the studies and the product arrives in a fast amount of time. In this post you will find some examples of things I have tested, compensation for products tested, tips on qualifying, and some things to avoid when searching for product testing sites.

Examples of tested products-
Allergy Buster Sinus Spray-Retail of 13.99.
Go Fresh Body Wash-Retail of 4.99.
Nivea Body Souffle For Dry Skin-Retail of 6.00.
Traditional Chex Mix-Retail of 2.50.
Granola Bars-Retail of 3.29.
Bear Creek Pasta-Retail of 2.99
All of these are just SOME of the items I have tried, I am also part of a McCormick's Recipe study, where I test different recipes with the seasonings or such that they provide, and the National Consumer Panel, where I scan items that I purchase and upload them every week. Almost all product testing requires you to complete a survey, so some of these items have came from very legit survey sites...but you get to keep the products you test, plus earn points to redeem cash or great prizes.

Compensation Details
With every product testing you complete, you will receive some sort of reward, whether it be keeping the product or earning points towards other prizes, and a lot of times the researcher will offer to pay you a set amount by cash. Ex. A check in the mail, or loaded onto a prepaid card. I personally like to receive points for Amazon Gift Cards, to do my Christmas shopping with (you will learn more about this later on). 

Tips on qualifying for Studies
You always want to pay attention to the questions being asked. You can usually decide the best answer to choose by what's been asked and what is repetitive. An example...say the question asks "WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING HAVE YOU PURCHASED IN THE LAST MONTH"? if the question provides 30 items, your best bet would be to click the majority of them because chances are the study will be about one of those items. If you are redirected out of a survey, don't worry you didn't qualify that time, but there are plenty more! Also, when asked if you or anyone in your household work in certain areas...always hit no! 

Things to avoid when searching for testing sites
If they ask you to pay any kind of money, DON'T! Click out of the site and do not give anyone any kind of payment. Legit sites will not ask for anything but your opinion and address to send your product. If it says "YOU CAN BE RICH". That means...We want you to participate in our surveys because we think you are dumb and you will keep doing them not realizing you are not getting anywhere.  


Important Notes*
*On the sites I will provide, you will not receive product testing surveys EVERY survey you decide to take. Some surveys are just normal surveys BUT on all sites I provide when you take just a "regular" survey, you are still getting points towards other prizes!

*You must have patients. You may not get a product survey for a couple of weeks and you may get one your first time. YOU WILL RECEIVE POINTS THOUGH! Getting points can be better than getting products. The sites i'm giving you are the best out there, in my opinion. Once you reach a certain amount of points EX. 1000. You can redeem them for valuable rewards such as gift cards and prizes. So don't give up!

*I will only post links to these sites if asked. I do not like to do it this way, but I have had some issues posting them last time and I do not want those issues to return. Some links will be the sign up page and some will be my personal referral link.

**I am here and willing to answer any questions you may have. You may comment or message me on my Facebook, and also email me at the email listed on the right side of the page.

Upcoming Blog Previews: My next blog will feature FREE SAMPLES. One of my favorites! I will give you tips and secrets on finding the best ones out there, as well as links to freebies that are available. So be on the watch for it because it will be posted very soon and you DO NOT want to miss out!
