I'm happy with my earnings again this month. I made £595.76 across Search Sciences, Crisp, Appen, Intellizoom and Prolific.

I'm hoping I'll finally have enough in Payoneer this month to cash out my Appen earnings then I can put that totally on the back burner as I'm only making pennies from it each month and it's taking me away from more lucrative work.

I usually love the Intellizoom speak out loud studies but haven't managed any this month - keep getting screened out.

Don't forget to update your Prolific profiles - they've added a load of new questions and if you keep your profile up to date, you get a lot more surveys.

Thank you for the new thread

Milknosugar123 · 01/08/2022 11:05

Hello! I am new to these threads and have been having a look through the links. Not sure if I am being dense but how do you sign up for Crisp? I can't see anything other than their usual "careers" section.
TIA :)

Februarycat · 01/08/2022 12:47

*@Milknosugar123 It's under the Careers section it says if you wish to work on our freelance moderation work find out more, click on that and it takes you to the page, there is a waiting list though

Milknosugar123 · 01/08/2022 13:19

Thank you! Will pop my name down

Redcrayons · 02/08/2022 09:27

Not a great month for me, just under £120. My RL job is keeping me too busy.

Crisp, Prolific and Rev mostly. I’d love to pick more up on Rev, but it’s all posted so late. I’d love to reduce my reliance on Crisp. Also started Intellizoom this month. Early days but seems ok.

surprised to get the Amur email this morning. First one is a Mac book on a site that crashed my PC so I’m not holding out too much hope for it this month.

PoseyFlump · 02/08/2022 11:19

@Redcrayons when's the best time for work on Rev? Is the pay as good as transcription for App for example? I'm finding one of the hardest things with freelancing is figuring out what to do when to make the most of your time!

Redcrayons · 02/08/2022 13:53

It’s an American company, so jobs don’t get posted till late in the day. There’s a few jobs there from around 6pm but it tends to be stuff people have already declined and it goes quickly.

around 8/9pm it picks up and you get a better choice. But the downside is that I’m usually tired by then and I find it harder to concentrate.

I’m on the middle level so I don’t see all the work.

i only do the jobs which are editing already transcribed work, as I’m not confident in my touch typing to do pure transcription work. Im not doing enough minutes per month to reach the top level yet.

i haven’t done any work on Appen so don’t know how it compares in pay. I don’t think it’s great, but is a better per hour rate than Crisp.

Graphista · 02/08/2022 14:10

Thank you

Placemarking somewhat slowly making my way through the various links and ideas

PoseyFlump · 02/08/2022 14:21

Thanks @Redcrayons that's helpful. For some reason I always assumed crisp would be better paid than Rev. (Im on the notorious crisp waiting list)

PoseyFlump · 02/08/2022 14:23

@Graphista it really is throwing your net far and wide and hoping you catch something. I think I was saying to you the other day that I'd had nothing from App for a year but I've now managed to get on my first project and the pay is better than other stuff I've done.

Redcrayons · 02/08/2022 16:49

@PoseyFlump The problem with Crisp is that it’s not very predictable. Because it’s social media content it changes day to day, even hour to hour. So on a good day I could easily get £8/9 an hour, same time the next day it’s could be closer to £3.

Soulfullofsunshine · 02/08/2022 21:18

Hello, how do I apply for Amur? I see you all posting about it each month but have never seen it on my app projects list ever… been with appn a year.

stillherenow · 02/08/2022 21:27

Not been the greatest month for me either I didn't hit my £100 target on potatoes, at £65. This month I'm just going to make sure I do the required 1000 and then pick it up again in Sept.

SnowyWinterDays · 02/08/2022 21:48

Following, thank you.

8DPWoah · 02/08/2022 22:04

Is App broken for everyone tonight? My hour a day job isn't going to get done today, I feel!

AdaShelby · 02/08/2022 23:55

Awful Amur. I got 6 skips out of 8 (skipped all the Chinese junk) and then a pair of slippers and a plastic dog lead Grin

I've never seen it either :)

8DPWoah · 03/08/2022 11:22

App all back up for me today, phew!

July was a good month because I dropped onto some rush turnaround transcription on WWW so that was about £250. £320ish on App (hour a day job plus the bigger FB survey). And £50 from Search Sci whenever I get it (although to be fair it was on time for me last month... Less work to invoice for this month though!).

Still fretting that I've done 12 months on my hour a day so fully expecting the boot before too long, that will be a headache and a half as I can't transcribe at the same time:earning rate as that unfortunately.

6 skips out of 7, although my purchase is something quite nice and something a lot more expensive than I would buy for myself. UK seller so happy to keep or refund.

Graphista · 04/08/2022 18:27

@PoseyFlump thanks I'm just wading through everything now. Appen are requiring me to register with payoneer - which I've NEVER heard of does it have to be through this?

I've started to get money trickling in from Streetbees. Pennies but it all helps.

Mystery shopper is something I may also be possibly be interested in I'm wondering stuff you buy you don't want/need can you sell it and if so best way to do so? This applies also to I was reading on Mse about "selling rubbish" I have ocd which means I'm VERY careful with stuff so I can see I can easily supply potential buyers with kitchen roll tubes, glass jars (jam jars were mentioned on Mse but for me it's mostly olives, sun dried tomatoes, pickles kind of thing), ring pulls (not sure if this is from drinks cans or tinned food, both of which I can easily collect) it has the added bonus for me of meaning my bins fill more slowly - I HATE Doing the Damn bins! If there are other ideas I'm all ears - but how to sell and what pitfalls to be aware of? I also always save boxes from purchases and these could be used either as packaging or to sell on?

At this point I'm happy to be as diverse as possible within ocd limitations. Also trying to get myself back to work and I have things happening there hopefully too but that will take longer to truly get going,

I also have an idea that's somewhat...risqué but I'm having trouble figuring out technical aspects. Any experienced only fans users or creators here? I've tried contacting them directly but think I'm getting bot answers which are no help at all! If you'd rather pm about this I'm totally cool with that I won't out you remotely!

Any tips on the www thing would be good if only cos it's bugging me I failed the test - can I retake after like a month or something?

Respondent are asking for a work verified email - if I had one of those I wouldn't be on there!

Can't get mobile expressions download to work don't know why

Rev transcription - how does their tagging work I can't figure this out

Anyway that's where I'm at just now. I need to get in habit of jumping on the quick survey apps when I've a free moment it all helps

Buster27 · 05/08/2022 12:55

Thanks for the new thread @ruralwanderer.

Just under £750 for me, was aiming for £500 so pleased with that.
Crisp - £550
Appen - £65
Vinted - £75
Prolific - £55

I've just been plodding on with my usual stuff so haven't had much to contribute to the thread! Will aim for £600 this month, then hoping I'll get a bit more time once schools go back.

stillherenow · 05/08/2022 14:05

@Buster27 do you do shifts on crisp? I can't imagine making that much!

ruralwanderer · 05/08/2022 16:35

Great total @Buster27 Grin

OP posts:
Buster27 · 05/08/2022 17:15

@stillherenow Yes I do the shifts (I didn't make as much on just the PPI queues). If you're interested then it's worth applying for when they advertise it on slack, it's been a game changer for me!
