As I was surfing through my PayPerPost account, I noticed an opportunity titled PPP Photo Assignment where ‘posties’ were offered $10.50 to show a photo of themselves with ‘PayPerPost.com’ written on their body somewhere. (No iffy photos allowed, of course)

The videos were pretty funny too. Some of them were very dry. Some just plain silly. There were a few creative ones that I liked. But this is the one that stood out to me:

If I were Ted Murphy, I would hire this girl to do the PayPerPost commercial. She’s very animated, seems to be a good representation of their target market and is fun to listen to.

The markers were washable, we giggled and had silly fun doing it, and she got the 10 bucks that was earned
