I've reviewed some things here on Gather both on my own and as a BzzAgent, and I've been asked what a BzzAgent is a few times, so I figured I aught to address that here in an article so more of you could know the answer instead of getting it individiually. After all, Knowlege shared makes us all wiser.
BzzAgent is a consumer network in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. BzzAgent helps its members spread word of mouth about products and services naturally and honestly through free samples, coupons and more. Joining is totally free and there is no obligation involved.
I love being a BzzAgent for all sorts of reasons, not limited to the reasons listed below, and my kids love that I am able to get them things to try that we would not otherwise have thought to buy. We have discovered several products that we are now hooked on and must have in our lives, as well as saved money by not buying things we otherwise would have spent cash to try. Wether we like a product or not, we have found that BzzAgent is the way to go.
As a BzzAgent, you'll get to:
* Discover and try new products and services (for free!)
* Spread sincere word of mouth about them
* Have your opinions influence some of the biggest companies and brands
* Save up points to earn neat little thank you gifts
around
If you'd like to receive the same benefits, become an Agent today. Don't worry, BzzAgent respects its members' privacy and won't share your personal information or spam you. Join me as a Bzzagent or learn more here.
BzzAgent is a community focused on word of mouth, so what better way to recruit new members than referrals and recommendations from friends? Yes, I am inviting you to join up. *smile* I know all my Gather friends love to talk about the latest and greatest new things, share opinions, and trying new things, so you are my choice for the ones in my circle of friends who would make the best BzzAgents.

I received my first campaign about three weeks after filling out all of the first surveys. The surveys are how they get to know you and figure out which campaigns would be the best fit. Be sure to fill out the surveys as they come along from time to time, as they will get you into more campaigns.
BzzAgent is similar to being a secret shopper only in that it helps to have a good memory so you can remember the details when talking about a product you have been given. However, you MUST disclose to every person you Bzz that you are a BzzAgent and that you got the item for free to try and tell people what you think about it. After all, it's only right that people know they are being "advertised" to, even if it is your honest opinion. I have Bzzed negatively about a product before several times, and the companies DO want to hear your opinions and your Bzz be it positive or negative.
I was SO nervous the first time I submitted a negative Bzzreport!
I'd have to say though, that the most fun I've ever had with a Buzzcampaign was the Aquapods. We had a pod party and decorated pods for over an hour. The kids had a blast rolling the pods all over the floor and tossing them around in the pool too. Much fun!
Thanks for the invite!
