I mentioned I have been married for 7 years, a few time and I have had the pleasure of being a stay at home mom. Yes, I get the question often, “well, what do you do while your husband works?” My thought is always, I run a household… duh. But I’ll be honest with you, I always have a side hustle that I do to keep me busy. One of them being no fee work at home jobs and mystery shopping. Ladies I don’t care what you do, put your eggs in different baskets, just in case something falls through. I know you may have been like me saying, “what else can I do?” No worries, I got just the info you may want, we need to stick together, so I’m sharing my list of “side hustles” that keep something extra in my pocket.
How to search for WAH jobs?
It’s obvious people think mystery shopping is a scam.” Nope! It’s not a scam at all. There are really legitimate work at home jobs. Most likely you went to google and typed in work at home jobs, or mystery shopping, and nothing came up but a bunch of “spammy” websites. Then you proceeded to give up. The key is to know what to search for and use the correct words. By the way I know people who make a decent amount of money from doing no fee work at home jobs coupled with freelance work. Here is a tip when you are searching for these type of jobs, use words like, remote, reservation specialist, or search for work at home job forums. I would also start with YouTube as well. This way you can see real people who may be offering information on jobs they have found.
Is it really a no fee job?
For the most part the jobs I have listed below, don’t require actual start-up money to be apart of it. The more serious jobs with benefits, do require that you pay for a background check. Also when doing mystery shopping I only participate for extra money. What I mean by this is, typically if I’m going to the movies or a restaurant, I might check and see if there is a shop available. If there is, I know I will be reimbursed for what I spend and get paid compensation for my time. No fee work at home jobs are real, but most of them take some type of investment to make money. Such as you may be asked to buy a stick of gum to prove you actually did the shop.
My favorite WAH jobs with no fee to sign up
1. Sitel– A customer service company (I have actually worked for them, great company, most equipment provided).
2. Convergy– Customer service/ Telecommunication.
3. Gigspot– Mystery shopping app, compiles many companies in to one so you don’t have to sign up to a lot of companies.
4.Humanatic – Entails listening and reviewing phone calls online. Not actually speaking with customers.
5. Best Mark- Mystery shopping company, great shops for restaurants and retailers.
6. Apple– apple is hiring in certain states for home advisers to provide customer support.
7. Whatusersdo– A website testing site. Basically your screen and voice will be recorded while you give your thoughts on the provided site. pay is about $8-$10 per site review
8. Usertesting– I have been using Usertesting since 2013. This one is the same as What users Do as a website testing site that records your screen, It pays $10-$15 per test. If it is more detailed it will can be $30. This by far is one of my favorite jobs to do. it’s quick and pay is every seven days.
9. Nexrep- A work from home company that provides customer service for different companies. They pay hourly and some you can earn commission in addition to your hourly pay.
10. Brighten Communications– This is an outbound telemarketing company with pay between 12-18 an hour.
Bonus: because I like you 🙂
Confero – One of the most respected Mystery shopping companies. Tailored to you interest and also your location. If you are traveling, you are able to see what shops are available in that area.
See I told you
You see, I told you there are real jobs out there and more. Some of them won’t be completely no fee work at home jobs and some of them will. Just remember most likely if it’s a legitimate work at home job, you will need a computer or phone. Also they won’t require a fee to join. Some companies like Sitel, as I listed above will send you some of the required equipment to use for working with your campaign. OK ladies, I have provided you with some examples, you have to do the work and apply and actually do the job at hand. Happy earning my friends…
