Today I got an email that excited me because it was an invitation to a new online community. I love online communities because you get to share your opinion with others and get rewarded for doing it. I am a member of many different websites like this and always love to find more of them to join.
I had no idea what the survey was going to be about when I began but I quickly found out that it was about a store that my family shops at a lot.
Getting the opportunity to join an online community for that particular store was a neat surprise so I thought I'd share this chance with all of you too. Of course I can't share the name of the store here because it might sway your answers, but here's the email I got:
Dear Faith,
You have been invited to participate in a new online community!
Among those successfully COMPLETING the following 10 minute survey (avg),
a limited number of individuals will be selected to participate in an on-going
community which will reward you with cash and gifts for your participation.
The company that sent me this email (Focus Forward) is one that I've been with for awhile now and the phone interviews -so far- have all been shorter than the estimated time and payments have always come quickly. I like that they do interviews by phone, send surveys by email and have also introduced me to other websites that I wouldn't have found without them.
If you're already a member of Focus Forward then look in your inbox to see if you received this special invitation. If not, then please send me your email address by Gather mail and I'll send you an invitation to Focus Forward. Hopefully you'll be able to participate too!
Thanks & good luck.
~ Faith

I like the community sites that pay. Thank you
Yeah me too -- always fun. I'm hoping for a gift card at least :o)
I have been waiting for a little over two months for a couple checks they aren't much but could use them, now I am not sure which site they are coming from. I did get a couple outdated checks reissued, suprised me.
sounds promising!
I thought so too, Kelly.
Wow, this one sounds great! I actually think I'm not doing this program.....LOL!!!!
No way, really? You and I seem to be the two people on Gather that are signed up to do EVERY paid thing there is online -- how could you have missed something? ha
Ohh, it sounds good, but my problem is 'no time'! Argh!

I'm on Focus Forward but I never seem to qualify for anything.
Hmmm... I wonder why - I know that some companies are very, very specific. Did you happen to get this email from them?
I don't think I did, but I am on vacation so I have been mass-deleting alot of emails from survey companies since I don't have time to do them. Mainly only checking in on Gather for my gsn.com answers!
Sounds good. Good luck.
Thanks Carol!
please send me too
sending email now
and where is the picture of the feet
Haha, you're cracking me up! My mission today is this: I will have one of my kids take a picture of me with my feet turned around backwards and then I'll post it here on Gather! :o)
wait you mean you cant stand there with your feet backwards and take a picture, i am shocked lol
i hope i find it
Ooh maybe I can! I didn't even think about that one...
i sent you my email too
I sent you an email...Thanks!
Thanks Nancy - I'll grab your email and get it sent to you.
Can I have one 2 please?
Sure thing, Jean - I sent you an email about it...
You already know my email addy. Send me an invite.
PS: Off the subjet, I wanted to talk to you about something so when's a good time to call?!?
I'll get that done, Ang. I'm free today.. give me a call anytime.
I belong to this one, and they pay REALLY well.
Thanks for letting us know, Shannon!
Ooh... Me, too. I don't know if I'll qualify for much of anything with them, but I'd love to try.
If I could get around faster I would try this and a few other money making sites my friends like you have suggested. So far gather is all I do.
