Marketforce - nice to be appreciated

February 17, 2017 03:21PM
I'm the first one to jump up and down when MS companies talk down to us, so figure it's only right to acknowledge the good too. MF posted a nice message on their homepage for Valentines Day expressing their appreciation for their shoppers. Thanks Marketforce, it was a nice gesture!

Market Force is also the only company to send me anything for my birthday that had any cash value. Several companies send me a birthday email wishing me a nice day. Market Force, every year, sends me a birthday email wishing me a nice day and offering me an extra $2 for each of the shops that I schedule on a particular day as a birthday gift.

Yes, I know $2 is not much, but it's a bunch more than any other company has given me as a birthday recognition.

Kudos, Market Force!

I agree! Earlier this week, I self-assigned six assignments; the "birthday bonus" will amount to $12.00. It is a nice gesture on their part.

I saw the acknowledgement on the home page and smiled. My birthday is in a little over a week - a bonus would be real nice surprise.

It's nice but Marketforce is also the company that is the worst at trying to squeeze the most work out of their shoppers for the littlest money and they do resort to bait & switch tactics sometimes. It's easy to offer $2 extra per shop when you're already paying the shoppers pennies for the job. That being said it's appreciated but I would rather see the shops getting posted for a suitable payment all the time then get an extra $2 for my bday

I think the bad part is that you have a 24 hour window (on your birthday, I may add) to pick the shops you want, otherwise, the $2 additional fee is gone. On that note, substituting the once-a-year bonus into regular fees would be nominal.

It used to be better when the birthday bonus was $3.00.
