Tips and Hints For GPT Sites

I have written a couple times about finding GPT (get paid to..) sites and making money with them. I belong to two of them and have made over $75 in the last week! It is SO easy and cool to make free cash...

One of the best hints I read was to create free e-mail accounts with Google and use those for the surveys. I created donnahentsch@gmail.com. For one survey I use that as my address. For surveys after the first one I start putting periods into my name. For instance d.onnahentsch@gmail.com, do.nnamaciolek@gmail.com. Once I have exhausted the e-mail account I create a new one. Right now I do one e-mail account every day or two and use it as much as possible.

The other good hint I read was to go to personalphone.com and get a LOCAL phone number with voicemail for FREE! I use that for my phone number on all surveys. Works great!

If you want to try the GPT sites try these two: (any questions? post a comment or e-mail me!)

7 Articles Down, 23 More to Go!

Well, since I posted yesterday I have managed to complete 7 of the 30 articles I have to write this week. :) I try to do the interesting ones and the boring ones mixed together so I don't end up with an entire day of boring writing to do.

As a bonus to myself, each time I finish an article I get to spend some time doing offers on Fairy Tale Treasures. I am almost able to pay the cell phone bill now with my first week's earnings! Come - join us!!!

From Famine to Feast In a Day...

Well, when I woke up yesterday I only had one project on my plate. Today I now have 6. Two of which are HUGE. Looks like I will be very busy for the next week or two. As Martha would say "it's a good thing!"

A Day In The Freelancer Life

As you may know, I left my j-o-b in April and have been making a go at being a freelance writer, proofreader, and virtual assistant.

My day starts out, when I wake up, by checking all my e-mail accounts, looking for new projects on RAC, W4H, Deb Ng's Freelance Writer Blog, and RatRaceRebellion, updating the spreadsheet I keep with all my projects on it, and reading a couple blogs and websites.

After doing all that I mosey on over to the freebie sites for WalMart, and a couple others I visit each day. If there is anything interesting I order it. Nothing like the price of FREE!

Then I go over to Fairy Tale Treasures an fill out some offers. It's a GREAT way to make some extra cash for free. I use my "spam" e-mail address and a local phone number I got from www.privatephone.com so that I don't get spammed to death and harassed by phone. Works GREAT and it's earning me FREE MONEY. My hope is to cash out $100 by the end of the month. And, I am well on my way. Check them out here -



From there my work day begins. If I have writing projects then I work on those, if all else fails then I work on proofing. Today I had planned on proofing as I only have one writing project pending. Then I read my e-mail this morning and found $800 worth of new projects I have to do! What a difference a day makes!

Willie, the kids, and I spent yesterday at a local lake. This summer Wed has turned into "lake" day. It's so nice to get out and enjoy the area and the added frugal bonus is the free alpine lake trout for dinner - mmmmmmmmmm....

What are you up to? Post me a comment!

Procrastination...

Now that I am working from home, I am struggling with the one thing I believe most people do - procrastination...

It can be so much more fun to play with the cats, watch TV, read, etc... than to do the work I know needs to be done. This makes me "on deadline" whenever I have a project due - like today for example.

I guess on a positive note, I seem to write well when I have to get something done.

Today I have to write articles on real estate in North Carolina. Living in CA it is a topic I know zilch about... But I am about to learn! :)
