BzzAgent.com discussion

Click on "surveys" at the top of your BzzAgent page and for each one you complete, you get 5 MyPoints. :bigok:
 
I was happy at first when the points were first transferred over to mypoints because I received enough points to get $125.00 in giftcards plus the points were available rather quickly. For a 30 pt bzz report we received 240 mypoints. Now a typical bzz report is only worth 50 mypoints and it takes a month after that are credited before you can cash them in. I thought that they would be available immedietley. I still prefer this over the old reward system though.
 
You get less than $1 an hour to submit bzz reports. What a ripp!

If you figure it out you will discover that you are paid less than (.40 forty cents) not even the price of a stamp to talk to someone, type a report, and then process your points to get a reward. I can do something else and get far more than that. I figure that if you figure the time out: 10 minnutes to talk to someone, 10 minutes to type and submit a report, and 5 to redeem?
You figure just the 20 minnutes times three for one hour... your time is not even $1.20 per hour. This is not including your electric paid to do it. So, I figure you are doing it for free!

I don't think you sign on to be a Bzz agent to make a living. I think the perks are the free products~some ordinary, some rather expensive~ as well as the coupons for free products that you can share with friends. Often is fun just to be the "first one on the block" with a given product~I think that is largely the attraction for most Bzz agents. The other things that they throw in, like this Mypoints program, are just little extras that line up with their basic philosophy which is to "get the word out" about a product or service.

While I appreciate your math and its subsequent truth, I think it is essentially irrelevant to what draws people to be a Bzz agent in the first place.

I didn't join to get money out of it, LOL! What a laugh! I agree with sweetwinter, you join for the freebies, the coupons, and you get points for enjoying them that you can use on GAS!! Like the kind you put in your CAR! LOL! I just institute being a bzz agent into my everyday life, I go to church, I bzz, I call a friend, I bzz, I visit friends, I bzz, I see a friend out and about I bzz, I go to a gathering or holiday or bday party, I bzz, it's pretty easy, free, and fun, and it doesn't cost me anything if I do it that way, why make a special trip out? If you joined to make cash, I'm afraid you will be sadly dissapointed!
 
OH and I got in on that monkey book, which seemed like a lousy sales attempt written into a book, and I got the teddy grahams too.
 
BTw, I have never used my points , i alwayus forget about them, do they expire?"

I totally agree. I didn't join to make $$$. I bzz about stuff all the time anyway, so why not get a few perks along the way. And some of the products I've tried are awesome -- like the Logitech Remote!! I would never have bought that myself, but I am loving it now. And even the smaller stuff -- I get to try before I buy. No complaints here.
 
Did anybody get their gift cards yet that they ordered?
 
I just completed my Twist-n-Loc post-campaign survey and it earned me 30 MyPoints and a honeycomb. That bumped my status up to Busy Bee -- Nice!
