My Review of BzzAgent.

BzzAgent is connected with Mypoints, which I will review separately as it's a whole different thing.  However that being said, you earn point for mypoints.com with some of the surveys and with some of the review functions on this site. 

BzzAgent asks you to connect to Facebook, Twitter, a blog, and MyPoints.  I don't recall if any of these are mandatory, but I do know you don't have to have all of them.  I have a dummy (well any twitter account I would have would be a dummy account, what's the point of tweeting when you can blog or better yet post something on facebook?) Twitter account I use for these posts and there are a couple of real people I know connected to it as well as a few bloggers that I allowed to follow my twitter account when they were doing big giveaways one Christmas so I don't mind endless posts about products I've tried.  Maybe that's the point of twitter anyway???  The blog is definitely not mandatory.  I've just started this blog after reviewing 6 items without it.

The next thing they have you do is answer a bunch of survey questions.  These are related to their product review choices.  They periodically have new ones for you and some of them give you 3 points for your MyPoints account. 

Then they have products they ask you if you want to review.  Should you say you want it they will send it to you within a few weeks, generally 2-4 weeks.  According to my records on bzzagent they send it out within a week of my request to join the "bzzcampaign".  This always includes a full size item to review (or a coupon for free full size item) and sometimes includes samples sizes and coupons to share.

Then you post on Facebook, Twitter, blog about it, post a photo and/or video, review the item on their site, and tell them how things went talking face to face about it and to how many people.  You earn points for MyPoints and rating to your Bzzscore.  Your bzzscore is one way they decide if you are offered a specific campaign or not.  The MyPoints amounts vary, I think from 10 points to 50 depending on how they score your action.  I personally have only done the Facebook, Twitter, review, and face to face posts in the past, but I hope to now do the blog one and maybe I'll start doing the photo one too.  I just don't like spending so much time taking a photo, getting the photos from my camera to my computer, and then having to upload them too. 

So far I have reviewed for them:
Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil

Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut

G(R) Collection from Gold Toe

Burt's Bees(R) Intense Hydration

Glade Expressions(R) Collection

Frizz-Ease(R) Sheer Solution(TM) Lightweight Frizz Control


Ok so would I recommend this site?  YES!  I find it super easy and I don't feel that it makes me spam my friends with repeated posts about the same thing.  I love getting free stuff and the stuff isn't junk.  I've even turned down a couple of bzzcampaign offers because I didn't think I would use the product, like hair color or food that wasn't gluten free and my husband wouldn't eat it and review it for me.  Plus I earn points for MyPoints which I've been a member of for years (since 2000.)    MyPoints.com
