Getting Started. Once you
sign up to become a member, you will gain access to the GlobalTestMarket members page. The
members site gives you access to your contact information, your member profiles, your market balance, current paid surveys that are available to you,
answers to common questions, a referral page where you can earn extra points for referring your friends, and blog with updated information for members.
What to expect? After you sign up you should take the profile surveys in the member's area, they currently have 10
profile surveys. Profile surveys are important because they will help GlobalTestMarket send you more surveys that match your demographics. GlobalTestMarket will
automatically email you survey invitations that they feel may be a close match to your profile, but you can also access your surveys from the member's area in the
surveys section. Each invitation will indicate the range of points that you can earn for attempting the survey.For instance, if the range is 5 - 100 points, that means you will get 5 points if you attempt the survey and do not qualify. If you do qualify and
complete the survey you will get 100 points. The amount of surveys you will receive depends on your profile and the current studies being conducted, but in
general you should expect several invitations a week.
The good thing about GlobalTestMarket is that all of their surveys are rewarded with cash incentives, and they usually give
you a minimum amount of points even if you do not qualify for the survey. Once you have accumulated 1000 points you can go to the marketpoints
area in the members section and redeem your points for cash. Payment is delivered
via mail in the form of a check in your local currency. Delivery times range from 4 to 6 weeks for North American members and 6-8 weeks for everywhere else.
I usually qualify for about half the survey invitations I receive and can generally earn at least 1000 points per month if I attempt most of the surveys I receive.
Here is an example of a $55 check I received for redeeming 1100 points.
Our Advice: Since you may not qualify for all of the surveys, and since most surveys offer an incentive for just attempting the survey, we recommend that you
take all of the surveys GlobalTestMarket sends you. If your schedule does not permit this, then take as many surveys as possible. If you are not getting many surveys,
check your profiles section, and make sure they are completed and up to date. The most important advice is to answer the surveys honestly, and to take time to answer
them correctly. Rushing through the surveys will often cause you to overlook something and as a result not qualify for the survey. The better your responses, the more
likely it is that you will be invited to take future paid surveys.
