July 2017 income report

I  get a lot of questions about am I am really making money online. I think it is important that you can make money while working at home without  MLM or direct sales. 

I want to start tracking each month for my readers how much money I am making at home doing call center work and some of my other gigs.   Due to Non disclosure agreements I signed  I am not comfortable in saying which call centers I am working making  this money. 

Call Center work I track by the number of hours I am logged in and taking calls.   Some call centers pay a flat hourly rate and some pay only on sales and other pay per talk time.  

I have been very bad about keeping tracking of my income with my followers.   I step away from blogging and keeping track.    I am more focused on working  with real estate  agents and that has been keeping me busy.    

I am bad around working alot during the summer.  I would rather sit and enjoy the summer. 

I am continue to work the Dave Ramsey plan but I don't do it perfect.   Technically we are Step 3  trying to get to  6 months of expenses.   I do have one in college that we are trying to cash  flow  plus  husband is putting   money into his  401k. 

Call Center work   (click to see which companies hire call center workers) 

Time work  43 hours  

Pay $502

Average pay per hour  $11.67   

Elance (now upwork )  and other short task work including mturk -aka non phone work 

Pay 750 

I am not including anything from any  survey and rewards programs as to me those are just extras and I usually save them up for Christmas.  

Gross Total  $1252

Expenses  Landline phone and Internet  $100 

Net Total   $1152

I always take 25% off the top for taxes since I am an independent contractor and have a special account that is NOT touched .  I also have my husband take out extra taxes from his paycheck so we don't usually end up paying.  The 25% then goes to a bill or savings

How To Talk Your Boss Into Letting You Work From Home

A reader recently wrote into Forbes asking the questions about some flexibility in working a few days from home.   Even working a few days at home can be helpful for work and life balance. 


If I could work from home one or two days a week, I would have the perfect job.

It's crazy that I have to drive into the city during rush hour five days a week.

My office only has forty employees in it, and most of us don't work for the same manager or on the same accounts. I don't interact with my co-workers apart from pleasantries.

I could do a lot of my work from a coffee shop or anywhere, but so far my company doesn't have any work-from-home policies that I know of.

How to Make Money as a Proofreader as a work at home job

As a freelance  wahm  writer there are so many kinds of online writing assignments that are open to you. From articles, to blog posts, to ghostwriting, you enjoy a variety of assignments for writing.  

What about the other side of the story, the side that needs you to actually go through pieces of writing and comb them for errors, ensuring they are readable and free of grammar or construction lapses? This in its essence is the vital job that proofreaders do. Without people willing to take on proofreading jobs most pieces of writing would not be all that great to read, with small errors marring the flow. A proofreader needs to fulfill a variety of criteria in order to take up online proofreading jobs. Take a look at some of these criteria:

An eye for detail: This is a key requirement for success in proofreading jobs, online or off it. A person who proofreads needs to have an innate eye for grammatical lapses, sentence constructions that somehow read wrong, and of course, spelling mistakes. Practice at proofreading is also helpful in honing this ability to quickly pick out all the errors and make a piece of text readable.

A sound knowledge of the language: An eye for detail and a thorough knowledge of the language usually go hand in hand. Before looking for online proofreading jobs, a proofreader should brush up their knowledge of grammar, and in brief, cross their t's and dot their i's every time.

How to get Started with Upwork

Knowledge of the proofreading symbols: A specific set of symbols is used in proofreading universally. The proofreader must know how to use these symbols. Online proofreading jobs need people who can handle the symbols comfortably. Many basic entry-level jobs can be a good practice ground to pick up standard proofreading skills. Advanced jobs may need a more detailed set of criteria specific to the job at hand,

A willingness to read and learn: While this criteria is not confined to online proofreading jobs, and actually relates to any job or task, proofreaders especially benefit from a willingness to learn. Knowing about various subjects helps, as being familiar with a particular subject gives a slight advantage in going through a piece of writing without much effort. You may actually call it somewhat like the home ground advantage. It can also be helpful to specialize in proofreading texts on a particular subject. A small tip: If you are a beginner, be ready to take up any job for the experience. Keep specialization for the long haul.

Comfort with working online for long stretches: Proofreading can be quite a hectic and sometimes tedious job, needing the proofreader to be comfortable with stiff deadlines. Online proofreading jobs needs the proofreader to be comfortable scanning and correcting documents in an electronic format.

Get Paid for Taking Surveys

In addition, to phone and admin work, one of the things that I do on a regular basis is do internet surveys.  I use this as my pocket change and will use it to pay for Christmas or  save up for a Disney vacation.  like we went on  back in 2013.   

Eligibility

In order to earn money by completing surveys you must meet the criteria for the specific survey. Many companies will require an unpaid screener survey during registration. This information is used to select participants for specific product and service surveys. The key is to have enough of your information on file for the company to know you fit their demographic and extend the offer to you.

Watch Out for Scams

Be cautious. Although being paid for taking surveys is legitimate, there are some that are out to scam and make a quick buck on the hopes of others. Simply follow these rules:

• Never pay up front.
• Never pay a membership fee.
• Never give out personal information like your social security number, credit card or bank account number.
• Read the terms and conditions.
• Ensure cash  or gift cards are  the payment method.

Legitimate Companies Follow These Guidelines:

• Never guarantee a set income
• Makes clear the reward for each survey
• Posts privacy policies
• Does not sell member information to third parties.

Many companies look legitimate. Check out the terms and conditions agreement and privacy policy before signing up. If you can't find these, skip that site.

Look for wording such as, "We do not share personally identifiable information with other third-party organizations for their marketing or promotional uses without your consent except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt out."

How Paid Surveys Work

Compensation will vary company by company and survey by survey. You may receive a little bit of money, free products, or sweepstakes entries.

First sign up for a paid survey site and complete your member profile. You should receive an email when a survey matches your profile. The email should contain this information:

• How long it takes to complete the survey
• How you will be compensated
• A link to the survey

Most surveys take only 15-20 minutes to take.

Payment

Do not expect a full-time salary from survey taking. It is acceptable to receive compensation of about $50 to $100 each month in cash and products for several short surveys.

Payments can vary widely and can range from $1-$50 in cash, points toward prizes, or sweepstakes entries. Generally the cash is the most valuable option.

How to Maximize your Survey Earnings

Sign up with several legitimate companies and check them all often so you don't miss out on surveys you qualify for.

Once you have been selected for surveys, use the time you have and complete the best offers. You are not obligated to complete all offers.

Keep your profile up to date so you meet eligibility requirements.

Final Word

Taking online surveys is a great way to earn a bit of extra money for a little time. Remember to watch out for scams and look for good compensation.
