1. Can you make any money? Yes you can make some nice extra cash if that's what you are looking to do. You are not going to make 10's of thousands of dollars a month. It's simply not going to happen.

2. Do you have to have special skills sets to do the work required? NO, it is as simple as it sounds. Companies send you out surveys inquiring what you like or dislike about a particular product or service, you give your opinion, and they pay you for your time.

After all you want to ensure you get in programs that will offer the types of surveys and they payment type you prefer.
