Not sure how many of you are on Social Media's like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, YouTube, etc. Or have an official Site or Blog (Wordpress). But there's a new Marketplace that allows you to turn a good profit from your online digs. Social Media or otherwise. It's called IZEA. The way it works is you sign up, and receive opps (opportunities) from BIG BRAND sponsors. Like FOX, Adidas, etc. The opp could be anything from tweeting an advertisement, to Facebooking an advertisement, or serving an advertisement through any of your other social media channels. Or on your Word press Blog or Website. You might receive a direct offer from an advertiser (based on a price you set yourself), or an Opportunity Bid. Which is where an advertiser sends you an opportunity that can net you between $1 and $400 or more dollars. That bid will have a Maximum, of how much money you can BID for your services. And a minimum for how much you can bid for your services. If Purina wants you to tweet something for them, and the minimum BID is $1.00, and the Maximum Bid is $20.00. You can bid either $1 to tweet the ad for them. $20, or somewhere in between. At that point, the advertiser will either accept your bid, or return it with a negotiation. So if you bid $20 for an opportunity to Tweet an ad for Purina through your Twitter account, the advertiser might wanna negotiate the price down to $10.50 instead. Ultimately, the decision lies with you whether to take the opp, or pass. Or renegotiate back up to something like $15.00. And see if your NEW revised number is accepted by the advertiser. You can also make money by sharing Instagram photos of you using a product, or writing a blog about a product on your personal website, or Word press blog. Using the connections tab, you can use every social media platform available to take opps from advertisers. The only social media platforms not listed currently with IZEA, are Pinterest, and Reddit. IZEA is a spinoff from platforms like SponsoredTweets and Pay-Per-Post. Both ST and PPS, are shutting down by the end of the Summer, and IZEA will absorb those users and advertisers into their new advertising platform. If you wanna sign up, you can do so Log In.
