Speaker 1:
Seth, aka the Survey Plumber, is going to drop tons of gems today, but before we get started, I want people to realize why they're watching this episode. So I'm going to ask you this question how much money have your students made doing paid surveys today?
Speaker 2:
Well over $300,000 in a year, well over $300,000.
Speaker 1:
So obviously we're going to be talking about doing paid surveys and by the end of this episode, I want you guys to come back and watch and be like you know what, seth Anthony Janoka? I made this much money doing paid surveys. So, seth, thank you for being here.
Speaker 2:
Thank you, no, thank you for having me.
Speaker 1:
Those first students that you had when you first launched. Let's talk about that part of your journey. So how long were you working with them? Like what was their results while you were building with them? Because you're building a business, while you're helping them make money on these, on the surveys, and then we'll get to like I created a group chat.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, so that's how I started my community. I created a group chat, I created an email thread and I had weekly calls. So what I was doing was I was going through all my websites and going through all my notes and having one on one coaching sessions with people, so like I'm gonna sit minutes and I'm going to teach you everything and then, if you need additional help, you can come in my community weekly group chat.
Speaker 2:
All that hit me on the side email me, people were reaching out to me all kind of ways. I literally fell into it as like a side hustle to delete the debt and then just following, like you guys who just created a course based on something that you knew how to do.
Speaker 3:
And.
Speaker 2:
I'm like I don't know how to teach people, but I'm like, as long as I can replicate my knowledge to other people and get them the same results, then it just kept working.
Speaker 3:
And I think the biggest thing that Anthony always says is people just want to get to where you are. So sometimes before we start a business, we think we need to know every single piece of the business and it's like, not necessarily, if you can get me to this point, then I may find someone else to get me to another point, so on and so forth. Or maybe when you escalate I can follow you there too. So people just want to get to where you are sometimes.
Speaker 2:
I just think you don't have to reinvent the wheel Again. Like I was saying earlier, just starting, I think people are scared to start. It's just like what's hard.
Speaker 3:
What about friends and family? Has anything changed there? Have you surrounded yourself with different people? What are they saying?
Speaker 2:
when you started, I think the biggest thing were people didn't realize how much money you can make from paid surveys. I think a big part of the little bit of success I've had so far is that I'm opening people's eyes like listen, like you don't have to, like work 800 jobs and start three businesses to make extra money. I have students who've made a thousand dollars in a month from paid surveys and what's key and I think you guys can attest to this is like time and money becomes one in the same as you get older. So the key with paid surveys is it doesn't take a lot of time. So it's like if I work a part-time job making $20 an hour and I give them 10 hours, that's $200. After Uncle Sam get his cut, I'm probably taking home what $140?
Speaker 3:
I don't know in New York.
Speaker 2:
Let's just say $150 for conversational purposes. I just gave somebody 10 hours of my time for $150. Yeah, and paid surveys are paying $200 for 90 minutes.
Speaker 3:
Yeah.
Speaker 2:
And that allows me to get my other time to do other stuff. Yeah, honestly speaking, what also helped was me doing surveys while I ran the business One, and I'm going to say this on camera too you should never, ever, ever, learn something from somebody who's still not doing it. What do you mean Like? So I wouldn't recommend learning surveys from me if I'm not doing surveys anymore.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, so you, andy, says all the time too, and I don't agree, you don't think so. No, why not? He's his biggest thing is you know, we still run the cleaning business, blah, blah, blah, and I'm like, but if I didn't, I had six, seven years in the business. I know the business still, but businesses change businesses do change, markets change, I agree. But that doesn't mean I don't got the knowledge that's true, but that is my, we have that discussion all the time, so let me ask you this, alright? No, that's a good point.
Speaker 2:
Let me ask you this you got ten years in experience ten years experience in the cleaning, but your last year of experience is 10 years ago. Would you hire me? Probably not. You know what I'm saying. 10 years ago, yeah, that's a big difference. You know what I'm saying. But you got to stay in the loop with things, so I still do surveys because I want to know what I'm teaching people. I want to know that my concept still works.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, I got to ask you this question If you don't want to answer it. It's how much have you made doing paid surveys? You should have your number. Oh, my number, yeah, of course. In what range? A year two years.
Speaker 3:
I want to know total, oh, total that you were able to track. I guess, yeah, yeah, for sure I know you're not going to track when you were 15. No, this year, this year, oh, we're going a year, okay, 2024.
Speaker 2:
but that only took me and one canceled on me, I think, 7 hours so 1107 hours.
Speaker 3:
Right last year I did 5500 in 47 hours that's when I started keeping track, so you're tracking your hours, so now you see how much you get paid hourly. Yeah, for sure that's important, so that's an extra $5,000 that you're able to make in a year.
Speaker 1:
What's the hourly rate on that? It was like $100 an hour or something like that. Right, right exactly.
Speaker 3:
But if you think about 47 hours, that's one week of work.
Speaker 1:
One week of work. You work 48 hours but you know you go to work and you don't even make that much. I do not make $5,500 a week I'll tell you that much you don't make that much a week.
Speaker 3:
It's just crazy. I don't make that in the two-page.
Speaker 1:
Now, when people watch this episode, they're like all right, Seth, we know that you've done well, we know what your students do. How do they? What game can we give them today? So that, all right, I want to take action from this episode and go start making money today. So if somebody's ground zero watching this episode, okay, I know his story, I understand it. But I want to know where do do I start making money to save from surveys? What can we give away?
Speaker 2:
I'm going to steal a line from you what is your why?
Speaker 1:
Okay, what is your why? So you said, start with a bill.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, Something like that. No, I wouldn't say start with a bill, but it's just like again.
Speaker 3:
His why at the time was just a phone bill, but for somebody else to make a Like.
Speaker 2:
A lot of people do surveys and then they stop and it's like oh because, oh, I want extra money, because I want to go to Trinidad.
Speaker 3:
I want extra money for this.
Speaker 2:
It's just like I have students who do surveys for different reasons, so just figure out what your reason is. So some was like yo.
Speaker 1:
What's a typical reason you'll see A vacation, a credit card bill.
Speaker 2:
Extra money is just like yo I'm going to take care of my outside because we all outside. Outside is expensive Drinks, food, uber, blah blah. It's expensive, so I want to take care of my outside. Some people are like yo I got to start taking care of my mom. So a little bit of extra money, that's an extra $400. I'm going to just,000 a month. My highest student made $15,000 last year.
Speaker 3:
Wow, they was working it, they was working the surveys.
Speaker 2:
I'm saying I mean, if it's working, you got to work it, I can work it.
Speaker 1:
If you work, how about that?
Speaker 2:
I can work it, but that's a good amount, and surveys is, like you know, from your computer, so paid surveys is something that anybody can do as long as you have a phone and a computer.
Speaker 1:
All right, so we got that. We got our why. I would say our why is, let's say, I got a credit card bill. My credit card bill is like, let's say, about $250, $300 a month. Mm-hmm, where will we start there?
Speaker 2:
That is you learning a side hustle to develop income to take care of additional bills? Again, it started with me and a phone bill, but now people make $500, $600 and they want it to take care of their car note or take care of whatever excess bills come up.
Speaker 2:
I know my last couple grocery runs has been surveys, so it's like all right, alright, I just made $2.50 Trader Joe's, you know what I'm saying. So it's just like and groceries are expensive because in my experience I find that you can tackle your bills, you can plan ahead, but it's always like this came up or the miscellaneous stuff. It's never the rent that kills you it's never the rent that kills you.
Speaker 3:
It's like yo.
Speaker 2:
I had to go get my arm checked and my insurance didn't cover it, so I had to pay an extra $300. And then my mom needed $200. And now my check engine blinking.
Speaker 3:
Apple still want their $299. The stores are fighting for my life. She's like we get charged child Apple, Child Applebee.
Speaker 2:
You know what I'm saying so, it's always the excess stuff. So I think paid surveys are perfect for people who one run into those extra bills, but more so like people who want to get ahead. So it's easy to come home to a check $300 in the mail.
Speaker 2:
It's like all right, I could save this or this could take care of my family, like you know what I'm saying. So it's really about like, what's the reason you want to make extra money? Like, is it just for a vacation? Because once the vacation's over and it's like, all right, I paid for this, I hustle, I didn't do it again, do I'm away for my next vacations? Like everybody's motive is a little different, but one thing you need to know is, like time and money too. I make this program very seamless, so that you're only doing this maybe half hour, 45 minutes a day. Very seamless, so that you're only doing this maybe half hour, 45 minutes a day, and I think that's time that everybody has to be on a computer or scrolling your phone.
Speaker 2:
Listen you scroll in Instagram. You're going to hit refresh eight times your last three posts. You complaining about money. You're on Twitter. You're checking your ex's tweets. He's not checking yours. He or she is not checking yours. I got a solution for both problems. Use your social media, head to my website and start doing paid surveys wwwthesurveyplugcom. You can make over $100 an hour. I have students who have made up to $15,000 in a year from paid surveys. Get out of Justin LA Boy's comments. Get out the shade room. Start doing surveys. Wasting your time on social media and all these other platforms. You could be applying to surveys online, making hundreds of dollars an hour.
Speaker 3:
Start now surveyplugcom and so is there any challenges with the survey that you're um doing?
Speaker 2:
surveys, I will. The biggest challenge that I tell everybody is that it's tedious. So you're constantly like applying, you know, repeating the same information. So that's the biggest challenge. And then sometimes you don't get selected. But because surveys pay so well, you don't have to get selected 100 times. So my boy just got a $400 survey yesterday. He don't get picked again for the month. He made $400 this month and he still has the rest of the year.
Speaker 3:
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:
So, like I'm scheduled for a $300 survey next month that's online, and I have one in person next week for $100. So I'm scheduling this around my clock Like, all right, do this online, $100 there, go, do something else. So I think the gift with surveys is that it's not time consuming and it's something that could fit into your schedule, whereas you know, as business owners, you want the clock all day long.
Speaker 1:
So appreciate my guy, survey Plug, being here. Seth man, it's been a great conversation. Let the people know where they can find you, where they can tap in, and also if you could give our audience, you can hit them up with a little discount or something on Survey Plug, we can talk about that.

Speaker 3:
Yeah, so Is there one question you wish we would have asked that we didn't? Anything that you need to make sure to share, I don't know. That's to put you on the spot.
Speaker 1:
Question yeah that is One thing you want to get off your chest, that we didn't ask, or is important for the audience.
Speaker 3:
I don't know.
Speaker 1:
Leave them with a word of wisdom or something. That's fine. We'll go with that Listen one income days are over.
Speaker 2:
I'm gonna just keep it real one income days are over. You need a side hustle. I'm not even saying that because it's the survey plug. I'm saying because you need a side hustle. One income days are over. If you're not interested in starting a business, definitely start something that could create additional revenue for you definitely have something outside your nine to 5 because, as you see today, the 9 to 5 is not safe. I'm not making that up.
Speaker 3:
People get laid off.
Speaker 2:
Companies are closing, but if you're the boss and you're the owner and you're calling the shots, as I've been telling my friend the other day don't wait for a raise, make one.
Speaker 1:
And on that note, don't wait for a raise. And, on that note, don't wait for a raise, make one. That's a ball.
