Marketing/Outreach assistance needed for research project
I have a small, unusual research project I'm working on that requires borrowing Amazon Prime gaming benefits. My project requires borrowing these benefits for a 12 month window (although the scope of this work contract is 2-3 months.) Most people who have Amazon Prime subscriptions for shopping / video don't use the gaming parts of their subscription. I've developed a safe, effective system for borrowing these benefits that does not put either the people loaning the benefits or the people collecting them at risk in any way. No personal account info is collected or asked for at any point, the process is entirely anonymized, and does not violate any Terms of Use clauses. I need people who can go around and use my method to borrow these prime benefits from people who aren't using them and willing to share. The contract is restricted to the US, Canada, Puerto Rico, or Australia Amazon Prime subscriptions. Total estimated work hours on your part is likely anywhere from 2-4 hours. I have a working process/pay schedule for how to do this from a previous iteration of this project, but I am also open to discussion on alternative methods of advertising/outreach to achieve the same outcome with similar cost structures. The rates I am using are $110 for a total of 5 borrowed gaming benefits, but negotiation is available for more or less benefits. —----> Specifics of Contract: The research project I'm running requires the monthly gaming benefits that are included with Amazon Prime subscriptions, specifically, the monthly twitch subscription. That monthly twitch subscription has a real world cash value of approximately $2-2.50 per month. People who use Amazon Prime for shopping but don't have any interest in video games let their benefit go to waste each month. The project is to see if it is viable to borrow these benefits from a statistically significant number of people (target number of 100 users) and see how long people continue their prime subscriptions over the course of 1 year. The job is essentially to go around and see if people wouldn’t mind letting you borrow the gaming benefits that they are not using, then linking the unused Amazon Prime benefits to blank twitch accounts (1 amazon prime benefit linked to 1 blank twitch account.) I need you to collect and link 5 accounts, for a project-complete total of $110 ( at a rate of $20 per account + $10 overhead stipend), although the total number of accounts is negotiable and scalable up or down. The process of borrowing the benefits is safe and easy to do. I have a collection of blank twitch accounts which are each ready to receive a single Amazon Prime gaming benefit link. Allocating gaming benefits is a one-way link; the twitch account has NO ACCESS to the parent Amazon account. We also do not ask for any of the Amazon Account information at any time. When you find people who are 1) paying for Amazon Prime, 2) aren't using their free monthly twitch subscription, and 3) are willing to share, you can allocate their benefits to one of the blank twitch accounts. The process takes about 2-3 minutes. Once you’ve collected the agreed upon amount, I will confirm each account is live and able to collect the monthly twitch benefits, then we will wait an additional 2 month to ensure the borrowed benefit accounts remain active before paying out the contract. This is to ensure the borrowed benefits are in fact from paid Amazon Prime subscriptions from the correct countries. After the 2nd phase is complete, you agree to leave the accounts linked for at least another 10 months regardless of whether the Amazon Prime accounts remain active. NOTES: - I have verified that this is not against the Terms of Use for Amazon Prime or Twitch. The process of benefit allocation is also completely safe for all parties involved. -The prime subscriptions must be from the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada, or Australia. This will be confirmed during the 1 month waiting period. If any accounts are found to be from other unacceptable countries, they will need to be replaced, or the contract payment schedule restructured proportionally to the reduced value of the accounts. The expected value of the monthly benefits per account should be no less than $2.15 per month per account (all of the above countries meet this criteria.) -If accounts are found to be trial accounts, they will need to be replaced, payment refunded, or the payment schedule will have to be scaled down proportionally.
