Synovate / Global Opinion Panels... YES... Again!!! :)


See, another Twitter Tuesday winning!!  So now that brings me to either 5 or 6 weeks in a row winning Twitter Tuesday.  It's not that I'm super smart or that I'm super quick...she takes the first 45 respondents and they all win!!!  How awesome is that?  Most contests take the first, MAYBE the second or third respondents.


See my post here about why it's such an awesome site to join...

Why you should join Synovate/Global Opinion Panels

I participate in a lot of survey panels (see the list here), but I have to say that Synovate / Global Opinion Panels is one of the best survey panels around.  I don't usually hype up a company/group/etc. if they don't have some sort of referral reward, but this one is worth mentioning (and no, I don't get money or points or anything for hyping them up... :( Sad, but true...  Go here to sign up, you won't regret it - and they don't clog up your Inbox like a lot of others.

Anyways, doing their surveys is really easy and you usually don't get screened out of them and if you do, it's immediate, not after you've already spent 30 minutes doing the survey.  That drives me CRAZY!  Some of the surveys are also product testing surveys - those are my favorite!!!  You usually get a full-size product to test, not some rinky dink little sample size that you can barely use for the survey.  The points add up quickly and they have a new web voucher program where you can redeem your points for gift cards at a TON of great places like Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.  When you redeem your points, the turn around is amazingly quick, see the Twitter post I made here (that actually got re-tweeted).

Another great extra they have for members is Twitter Tuesday!  I've won every week I've participated (I think going on 5 weeks now), it's ridiculously easy and you get 2 prizes every time you win.  I've posted about my winnings here and here and below (at the end of the post) is what I got in the mail Saturday for winning the previous week.  I almost feel bad for winning weekly, but then I get over it. :)

The last thing I really like about them is that Marie, the "face" of Synovate/Global Opinion Panels, actually monitors her Twitter and Facebook account.  It's nice to be able to actually talk to her, especially if you have issues with your account.

Twitter Tuesday from Synovate, Take 4!

I've been taking surveys with Synovate / Global Opinion Panels since 2003 when I was a SAHM with the kiddies.  It's super easy and they do a lot of product testing, so it's nice to be able to get those freebies too (I'm talking full size products that you try out and keep).  I recently started doing Twitter Tuesday with them as well - every Tuesday at 1pm (Mountain time) Marie asks a question and the first 40 or so who answer her get a prize.  The nice thing, you don't have a limit on how many times you can win.  So I started playing a few weeks ago and won that week, won the following week and I won this week as well.  The first week I got a travel mug and a notepad, then I got another travel mug and a highlighter, then I got a mini-frisbee and another highlighter.  Here's a pic of what I got today: another mini-frisbee and this nifty light-up pen.  This past Tuesday I didn't get an email that I had won, so I was worried that maybe I had "overstayed my welcome" with Twitter Tuesday, even if she said there's no limit...  But then I got this in the mail today!  Thanks Marie & Synovate!!!

Twitter Tuesday with Synovate

I've been taking surveys with Synovate / Global Opinion Panels since 2003 or 2004 when I was a SAHM with the kiddies.  It's super easy and they do a lot of product testing, so it's nice to be able to get those freebies too.  I recently started doing Twitter Tuesday with them as well - every Tuesday at 1pm (Mountain time) Marie asks a question and the first 40 or so who answer her get a prize.  The nice thing, you don't have a limit on how many times you can win.  So I started playing a few weeks ago and won that week, won the following week and I won this week as well.  The first week I got a travel mug and a notepad and today (for last week) I got another travel mug and a highlighter.  Here's a pic of the mugs and the highlighter, my kids have already pilfered the notepad (and now the highlighter).
