Collected my Churpie~

So SO lucky that I remembered to collect Churpie on the very last day of the collection period. I’d won him from Valerie (Miss Universe Singapore 2011) @Dweam ‘s twitter contest! All I had to do was to tweet why I love churping!

I didn’t know how cute Churpie is until I got him. Haha I sound like I’m badmouthing him but his head is bigger than his body so he always topples! But it’s cute lahhh. Lol

So now Churpie is safely with me. He’s trying to mingle with bearbear, but bearbear says he needs time to get to know him. He’s shy but can be territorial. So, we’ll see how it goes!

“Hello, I think I need some time to get to know you.. What’s your hobby?”

Gushcloud: Gush about your favourite things!

Have you ever wanted to earn some money online? I do, and advertisements like “Earn up to $7000+/month just by working from home”, or “Work from home mom earns $500 in a day” always attract my attention. But I simply don’t have the guts to try them out, because most of them require you to buy a starter kit, to teach you how to earn that kind of money. There’s no guarantee that you’ll earn that much amount of money and like any other job, you have to invest TIME into it.

For easier ways, I’ve tried Churpchurp, an online community that rewards social media influencers for sharing tweets and facebook posts on latest promotional events and trends etc. It pays on a per click basis, so thus far, I’ve earned SGD3. HAHA. And I can’t cash out because the minimum amount to do so is $100.

So I gave up after awhile, as I’m obviously not a social media influencer. Boohoo. This is made for people like Xiaxue and Qiuqiu, Tammy, and others who are at the very top. These people tweet once and thousands will click on their tweets and then they earn loads very quickly.

So I thought, perhaps there is really no way for a nobody like me to earn quick bucks online.

And then, I discovered Gushcloud!

gushcloud.com

A quick fact: I’ve clicked my way to about USD15 since I’ve started 1 and half months ago. And me, being an amateur, a nobody, and actually earning something online, is pretty amazing. I am SO CLOSE to hitting the USD20 mark, where I can cash out my earnings =D

One major difference from Churpchurp is that, Gushcloud pays by each specific task you’ve completed. Some sharing tasks pay a few cents, some can go up to a dollar. I don’t have to worry about how many people are clicking on my links as they don’t pay by the number of clicks. As long as I’ve completed that sharing task, the money goes into my GC wallet.

(New update: Gushcloud has since changed its way of sharing. Now it adopts an ‘up to a certain amount of reward’ system. For example, you’re not paid when you gush about something, but paid bit by bit when people click on the link, up to  certain amount. I wouldn’t say this system is better, as it hits a limit of reward after a certain number of people has clicked on the link, and hence doesn’t pay you when more people click on the link. But for some reasons, I still find it easier to earn with Gushcloud.)

And the best thing is ‘Gushers’ in that community can ask for help to share anything. Tasks like to follow them on twitter/read their blogs/support their blogshops can be posted free of charge. Then these tasks would be classified under ‘asking for a favour’, since no monetary reward is given. But I reckon, if people spend a little money, they would see a huge increase in their twitter followers or the number of people who liked their facebook page etc.

Furthermore, apart from the USD that I’ve earned, I’ve received a pair of tickets to the Night Safari, courtesy of Cathay and Gushcloud, for doing a blogging task to share one of their promotions. How good is that? Those tickets come in timely for hammy and I to visit the Night Safari again, and I can’t wait for the confirmation to go pick them up. =)

Haha can you see, in a way, I am gushing about Gushcloud? But the fact that it’s so amazing, I hardly have to be fake and this is obviously not an ad. I’m sharing this so you guys can go check it out too and start earning some quick moolahs online, just by tweeting, liking a facebook page or posting something onto your facebook profile.

As simple as that. Click here to head over to Gushcloud now!
