Thoughts on Real Estate Marketing…

…Or are they just another way to help you part with your hard-earned cash?

So far, in spite of the big hype that’s been showing up in my in-box, my research tells me that these are scam techniques. I think the concept of “truth in advertising” has entirely escaped these folks.

But I’m willing to be open-minded about it if someone can tell me about sites that actually DO pay people to take surveys – without asking them to spend a bunch of money first.

I started out doing research to help a client who is writing a book on debt relief – and to offer information to subscribers to my “More Money” ezine. And now, a couple of weeks later, my in-box is flooded with dozens of ways that I could spend money. What I’m spending instead is way too much time hitting “delete” and “unsubscribe” links!

Ever see those promos – “Get a $500 gift card from (fill in the blank)” Then you only have to subscribe to a bunch of offers from various companies to get it. I have no idea how many in total, because I didn’t do it, but now I understand that cartoon/ad I saw about the princess kissing the frog.

I did see some offers asking you to pay $6.95 and then after you fill out the survey, they’ll give you back $26.95. Has anybody done those? Are they for real?

Everybody likes more money, and surveys can be fun to do. I do 2 or 3 that don’t offer to pay me, just because it’s fun. So, if you know of any sites that are really for real, please share the information with your fellow blog readers!

Thanks,
Marte
