Introduction To Our Paid Social Media Jobs Review

Social media is quite an interesting platform to make good money in today’s tech-savvy world. Most companies rely on social media to promote their products and services. They create marketing campaigns for their brand on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and many more to attract their target audiences.

However, managing social media platforms is not an easy job. Many big and small companies hire exclusive social media managers to take care of their social media presence. These managers interact with customers and engage with them regularly. Businesses have become quite busy in launching products and doing other strategic tasks. So, they outsource their social media work to professionals.

More and more people are trying to make quick bucks by working for other companies’ social media profiles. You might have seen many websites offering you social media job opportunities. Paid Social Media Jobs is one of them. This site offers you job opportunities to work on the social media accounts of big companies. This way, this website claims that you can start earning a lot of money in record time.

Are these claims true? Do you really get to earn hundreds of dollars as the website promises by handling the “likes” and “comments” sections of certain companies? Does money start coming into account as soon as you register with Paid Social Media Jobs? To know the answers to all these questions, please continue to read our Paid Social Media Jobs review in the following sections.

What Is Paid Social Media Jobs All About?

Founded by a single mom, Annie Jones, Paid Social Media Jobs is a website that claims to provide you jobs to help businesses with their Facebook and Twitter accounts. On her website, she claims that she makes around $700 per week, and she started the website for many more people like her. She promises that by reading & replying to comments on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube accounts of businesses. By scheduling a few posts in a day, she helps people earn hundreds of dollars within a week.

She has also put a list of attractive-looking social media jobs on their website, with their pay rates as well. However, when you proceed to click a sample job, the website asks you to register for the same. So are all these job listings valid? Does Annie Jones really give you access to hundreds of social media job opportunities as she claims? Keep reading for the answers.

Why We Think This Is Not a Good Site To Put Your Money In

We want to be doubly sure about the product that you are going to put your money in. So, we did a lot of research on the authenticity of Paid Social Media Jobs to know if the website is worth your money or not. These are some of our causes of concern for this website, and why don’t think it is a good idea for you to fall for these claims:

a. No Clarity About The Founder

Yes, we do know that Annie Jones is the founder of this website. However, we don’t know anything more about her, apart from this. The introduction of how she came up with this idea, and how her life has changed dramatically after started doing social media work for other companies, is too dramatic, indeed! It isn’t easy to believe the authenticity in her statement.

We searched for more information about her, and we also checked if her website had an “About Us” page to know when her company was registered, but we didn’t get anything.

b. Unnatural Testimonials

Even before we get to the testimonials, let us tell you why we don’t think Annie’s claims are true. Firstly, she states that you can start earning the same night that you register with her site. That’s definitely not possible, according to us.

Yes, social media is an exciting field, and many companies hire people to take care of their social media accounts. However, the income comes in slow and steady. You can never start seeing money immediately into your account, in this kind of a job.

Also, she starts by saying that she makes around $700 a week to do a part-time social media job for companies. Even this figure looks too inflated to believe. If you have some experience managing comments on Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube, you will know that it is not easy to earn such a big amount in such a quick time.

The testimonials are nothing but pure inflation. We saw two stories right on top of the page. One of them said that she earned around $272 per job, thanks to which she earned close to $20000 in 6 months! Another one said that her total bank balance stood at around $9400, thanks to the income she earned through Paid Social Media Jobs.

While these are some incredible figures, the truth is that it is impossible for someone to earn such phenomenally high amounts in a quick time. As someone responsible for a company’s social media reputation, you have to do a lot of work. Your responsibility would be to keep up the company’s online reputation you work for in high regard always.

You should reply to comments quickly, and ensure that negative comments or queries are answered immediately. There are quite a lot of roles and responsibilities associated while managing the social media accounts of businesses. It takes some time for you to learn the tricks of the trade, and for your employers to trust with you their online reputation. This is exactly why it is very hard for us to believe when Annie claims that you can start earning the same night that you register with her website.

c. No Jobs Provided

Though Annie Jones gives a series of job listings on her website and promises to help you find social media jobs, she doesn’t offer anything when you pay for her service. Once you pay to enter into the members’ area of her website, all you will find is some training material on how to make it big in the freelance social media industry.

Annie claims that she has put together all her learnings in the form of a training module to help other women like her to make money from home. However, this training module covers only the basic concepts and may benefit someone who is completely new to the social media world.

Nevertheless, it doesn’t tell you anything that you cannot find on Google by yourself. We are quite disappointed about the fact Annie claims by giving us access to jobs that will help us earn hundreds of dollars within a week, but doesn’t stand by her words. Also, since all the training modules and freelance social media articles are freely available on Google on various legitimate sites, we don’t understand why we need to pay for getting the same information from Annie.

Cost Structure

We might have still recommended Annie’s program to beginners if we found some genuineness in its cost structure. Unfortunately, we found nothing impressive in the pricing plan, when we studied the program for writing this Paid Social Media Jobs review.

Here is the catch; Annie offers a trial-package for $1 for 3 days, but to get this trial offer, you need to pay the full payment of $27. Firstly, we feel that 3 days is a very short time to test if the social media job program is working for us or not. As we said earlier, this is a steady, but time-consuming field, in which patience is the key.

Secondly, when we try to pay for the service and activate our account, we noticed three factors, that made us doubt the genuineness of the program:

  • It was projected that the prices had been reduced to 50% only for customers from a particular country. If you are from America, you will see the same message, just like a person from Australia or Russia, or anywhere else. This looks like a very cheap marketing strategy to attract customers. So, when we tried to activate our payment, we got the message that the original cost was $54 and that only for our location, the price we had to pay eventually was $27!
  • Secondly, as soon as you pay the $27, and get the training and other materials of the program, you will be forced to buy the upsells that are part of the Paid Social Media Jobs. These upsell cost $37, and even though you know that they are not going to benefit you in any way, you will be forced to buy them.
  • Annie offers a $50 bonus for the first paid social media job that you will get after attending her training. However, since she doesn’t offer any job guarantee, this bonus is only a marketing strategy to woo customers.

However, the good thing is that Annie offers a 60-day money-back guarantee on her program. Since ClickBank is the retail partner for this program, you can contact them directly for your refund, if you don’t feel any changes within 60 days of purchasing it. Usually, ClickBank will process your refund within 5 days of your request.

What We liked About Paid Social Media Jobs

We are not being judgmental here when we tell you that the only thing we liked about Annie’s program is the 60-day money-back policy. We are glad that we could use this policy and could get our money back. While the training is alright, we still wouldn’t consider that one of the talking points of this program, because it isn’t detailed enough.

What Could Have Been Better?

Quite a lot, actually! Primarily, Annie could have been more reasonable about her incomes while talking about the program. The testimonials of her “clients” are too good to be true. So, instead of inflating figures unreasonably and trying to woo customers, Annie should have focused more on what to expect from her program.

While trying to pay for the program, we noticed that Annie mentioned that she didn’t charge any hidden costs. Unfortunately, we believed it only to know that it wasn’t the case. As soon as we paid for the program, we were directed to buy upsells worth $37, which really put us off. These kinds of hidden costs only confirmed our doubts about the authenticity of Paid Social Media Jobs.

The most important factor that we feel that Annie could have done better is to offer real jobs as she claims. There is no news of any job opportunity when we access the members’ area, even after paying the entire amount. All we got was a few training modules, which didn’t help us much. The job descriptions that Annie mentions on her site are misleading, as people think that they may find many such opportunities when they pay and avail of her website’s services.

Annie Jones doesn’t seem to be an authentic personality. We only know her name and the dramatic story behind her rags to riches story. There is nothing else about her company’s registration year or other genuine details that make us believe that she could be a real person. We were quite disappointed to know that Annie’s photo, which she uses on her site, was only a stock photo, and not real!

On her website, she makes use of a fake Fox News report, which talks about social media jobs. That’s again a misleading feature, just like almost all aspects on her site. This news only talks about the general aspects of social media marketing; it doesn’t say anything about social media jobs or her website. We are quite put off by this cheap marketing strategy.

Bottom Line

The money-back policy is the only feature that makes us believe that Paid Social Media Jobs is not a scam. It doesn’t offer you any jobs. So, we request you not to fall for Annie’s claims on her website. Stay away from this site, and look for freelance social media gigs on Google, to save disappointments and regrets later.
