The concept of mobile marketing has not escaped the attention of the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal.

This is a fairly new way to make your phone work for you…as a writer, you probably travel a lot, going from place to place promoting your book, doing book signings and more. And if you are keeping up with the latest trends in cell phones, you surely have a Blackberry, iPhone or one of the new Androids. Now, while your waiting for your next flight, or taking a break while driving, or in between events, you can spend some time making a little extra money doing what you would do anyway (OR you may want to use this service as a book publisher or author to promote your book(s)).

I think the following video is going to explain things a lot better than I will, but basically, you get points for doing simple tasks that are fun, or may be part of some research you are doing, and much more. The points add up, and when you reach a certain number of points (listen to the video below) you are rewarded with cash that you can transfer from your WeReward account to your PayPal account. It’s nice if you are a member of Facebook or Twitter because sharing this with your friends can help them, and you.

I love making a little extra income, or a lot, doing creative things like this, and as soon as I upgrade my phone in the Spring (yes, waiting for my full credit toward a new phone) I’ll definitely be adding this app.

Enjoy the video, it’s short, easy to understand, and to the point.
