Today’s review will be on Hotspex.  Hotspex is an unique online community,  where participants are invited to participate in online surveys and innovate for leading brands. They actually give you a name when you join this online survey company,  you are called a “Hotspex Innovator”, which I thought was kind of cool. This is one of the first sites that I have seen do something like this.

If you have not already done so,  check out my always do this section,  I offer some good pointers for those of you that are new to online surveys.  Believe me it will save you a lot of time and effort.

Here is the company info that I always provide to my loyal cyber world followers.

WWW Hotspex com does have one of the best looking sites out there, its shinny and sleek looking. Do not let that fool you they are a legitimate company. They offer there rewards in the form of Bux. This in turn you trade in for gift cards at a lot of your favorite shopping place’s Like Starbucks and free groceries just to name a few things.

I have heard and read reviews were people have won an Imac computer and $100 in groceries. So that’s nothing to shake a stick at.

This company treats you well when you complete the online surveys they send you, just like everything else I tell you do your own research and you will see Hotspex is a very legitimate company.

Some of the down sides to them would be the following, but this is not a reason not to join. You must go to a different website to earn you gift cards (not too big of a deal in my opinion). Most people start receiving a lot less surveys from hotspex after the first month (I stated many times you’re not going to get rich, but the more companies you have the better you are)

Good things would be there online surveys are a lot shorter than most and you get to play a quick spin the wheel games were I have won $10.

Give them a shot they will not spam you or release your information to any third parties a great addition to your big list of online survey companies.

WWW.Hotspex.com is a wonderful survey panel to join. They really bend over backwards for their panel members and put their all into making the survey experience an exceptional one. Their customer service is very friendly and genuinely care about panel members. They always go to every length make sure that panelists are happy and in-the-know. I have been paid, and it was on the same day that I requested my reward. That was awesome considering with other panels, you’re usually forced to wait 4-6 weeks until you receive your reward or incentive. I also won a contest worth $10. with Hotspex about 4 weeks ago (Name the New Spicy Burger Challenge!) and I received excellent panel support, as well as a quick and timely check. I would definitely recommend Hotspex to everyone! They’re rising steadily to the top and just keep getting better and better.

Ipsos
Home Testing Institute has done wonders for me. I currently am doing the easiest thing ever. All I do is send my junk mail to them.

You know the daily piles of direct mail that you receive and immediately throw away. That’s what they want see its useful after all. They are even going to enter me a drawing where five (5) winners will be randomly selected to win $100. Not too bad for just stuffing your junk mail into a prepaid FedEx package.

These are the items that they want:

·         Credit Card solicitation of any kind

·         Banking products, promotions, sweepstakes, or special offers

·         Loan offers (mortgages, home equity, auto loan, personal loans etc.)

·         Investment/financial information (brokerage, mutual funds, investment opportunities, seminars, etc.)

·         Telecommunications offers for cellular/wireless phones, other wireless service, Internet, local/long distance phone service, calling cards, cable and satellite TV service, residential security, etc

·         Travel and leisure offers (frequent flyer, rental cars, hotels, airlines, etc.)

·         Technology offers (computers, software, etc.)

·         Insurance offers (any type)

·         Automobile offers (any type)

·         Inserts included with any monthly statements or bills. DO NOT send actual credit card statements or bills, but do include pages showing fees/taxes.

·         Retail offers (any type)

·         Pharmaceutical offers (any offer for any type of medicine)

So as you can see your junk mail can make you some decent money. Don’t just throw it away make it work for you and heck you possible could win $100 in cash. I have been collecting my junk mail for them for the month of February cross your fingers people that I win the $100.

I will let you know how it turns out for me. Here is there company information and how you can grab some of this action and join Ipsos
