Challenge Problems - Rewind

Okay, I had a few personal problems going on this weekend and I didn't really put the time I was supposed to into this challenge. In fact, aside from Friday night I haven't done anything really. I did signup for a whole lot of GPT sites and I made $11.50 just for signing up for these sites. So far I am a member of these sites:



They have a $5.00 sign on bonus so that was a nice plus! Want to make a quick $5.00? Just sign up with them by clicking on the banner above.



The signup bonus is actually $1.50. I think they just need to update their banner. Anyway, you know what to do if you want that signup bonus.



No bonus, but good offers and nice payout.

Survey Savvy This is a place that you have to get invited to take surveys. Think about when you go to the mall and those people ask you to do surveys. I've never done this yet. I'm hoping to get invited for one soon. Someone I know does them and she has made $195 after doing six surveys.


No signup bonus but another good site with high paying offers.



Another great site.



Although I'm not greedy, I figured I could make some decent money on a site like this.

So as you can see. I signed up for a lot of sites. I'm going to go now and try some offers. I'll be writing a review of each of these sites in the coming days and I'm extending my challenge because I haven't had a far chance at it this weekend.

$100 Challenge this Weekend

I'm a person who is deadline oriented and in order to keep on top of things, such as this blog and GPT sites, I need to set goals for myself. I think that I can make $100 this weekend. In order to do this I have to be strategic about it. So here's what I'm going to do.

1. Join new GPT sites. There are many sites that pay you just to join so I'm going to do some research on Google and sign up for ones with high payouts, a good reputation, and sign on bonuses.

2. Strategize my offers. Sometimes you will see the same offers on multiple sites but one site might be paying more than others. For example, GPT site A will pay you $10.00 for signing up for a Netflix trial and GPT B will pay you $15.00 for signing up for that same trial. The thing about GPT is that you can only do an offer or survey once because it would be considered fraud to try to signup more than once just to get the money. So anyway, in this example it is obvious that I would sign up for this offer with GPT site B and make an extra $5.00. I also need to pay attention to incentives in calculating which sites to work for.

3. Log my hours. I want to know how much time it is going to take me to make this $100.00. Being that I'm starting this again after many years of not doing it at all I'm sure that it is going to take me longer than it would someone who has been doing this for a while...but we'll see.

So please come around this weekend to catch up on my progress with the $100 Challenge.

Tips to Maximize Profits and Save Time

Here are some tips to help you save lots of time and make more money $$$ -- which is the whole point of all of this, right?

You really need to be clearing your cookies after each and every offer. That is how you ensure that your offers are going to credit. It is a necessary step. You can use the one that is in your browser but I recommend that you download CCLeaner. Keep the box up while you are doing offers and then when it's time to clear cookies just click "run cleaner" and it clears off all the unnecessary files, cookies, cache etc on your computer. This is an awesome FREE program that I have been using for years and it keeps my hard drive very happy.

Also, I've repeated this many times so if you haven't downloaded Roboform. This is a great time saver. It will fill survey and offer forms with one click of the mouse. That means more money in your pocket.

Other than that I recommend that you pay attention to ALL contests and incentives on the site that you are doing your offers on. So for example if it's March 13th and you have time to do offers but then you see that on March 14th there is an incentive where you will get $1.00 for each 10 surveys that you complete on a GPT site -- then of course you are going to wait until the 14th of March to complete your offers so that way you can earn more money. See how it works? It's just logic. Remember, there are no deadlines and the surveys will stick around for a little while before they are deleted from the GPT site. My mottos is to work smart...not hard. But I'm sure you've heard that before.

Well that's it for now...good luck :)
