I partnered with Ripple on this sponsored post. All opinions are my own.
Those of you who have followed my blog for a while know that I occasionally share C-Space community applications. C-Space communities are online focus groups where participants are generally asked to share their opinions or answer questions for about 5-10 minutes per week, and in return they earn Amazon gift cards. Being a member of C-Space community does not require any sort of social media presence, blog, etc. I did a C-Space community when I was in college. This blog existed at the time but almost nobody was reading it yet! I was looking to do things like online surveys to make money, but they were often very low pay and very time-consuming with extremely repetitive questions. I really enjoyed the C-Space community that I did because it was far less time-consuming, less repetitive and the pay was better. I liked connecting with people similar to me and seeing their feedback too. It felt like a social experience instead of being pelted with questions like a robot!
Ripple is a program where bloggers or influencers can sign-up for sponsored post campaigns. Most of the sponsored post campaigns will include telling your readers about C-Space communities that they can apply for. I feel like Ripple is a win-win, because my readers enjoy hearing about new C-Space communities where they ca potentially earn a little extra money online. However, being part of ripple is also beneficial for me because I make a little money by telling my readers about the C-Space communities.
Any blogger who has done sponsored posts will know that some blogging networks have really strict, detailed requirements for sponsored posts. Some of them require hours and hours of work. Ripple posts are often some of the easiest sponsored posts that I do. They provide me with a special URL that I include for people to click on when signing up. Otherwise, the content of the majority of the post is up to me. The pay is less than I typically accept for a sponsored post, but they are less work (perhaps 30 minutes work total, where I spend 3+ hours on some sponsored posts through other networks) so I feel that it is a good overall agreement.

Hi there! I am Emily Evert, the owner of Emily Reviews. I am 28 and live in a small town in Michigan with my boyfriend Ryan and our two pugs. I have a large family and I adore my nieces and nephews. I love reading memoirs, and learning about child development and psychology. I love watching The Game of Thrones, Teen Mom, Sister Wives and Veep. I like listening to Jason Isbell, John Prine, and other alt-country or Americana music. I created Emily Reviews as a creative outlet to share my life and the products that I love with others.
