If you consider yourself an expert on any topic, you can get paid to chat with clients who need your help. There are numerous companies which will help you get in touch with others who are willing to pay for your knowledge. Most of these companies allow you to set your own per-minute rates, and take a small portion of the revenue for maintenance and hosting of your own site. They offer all the tools you need to begin earning money for your opinions and advice.
1.) LivePerson.com – According to the website, LivePerson is a unique service that matches people who have questions with people who are qualified to answer them. Live Chat and email sessions are available mediums for dealing with clients. Topics range from technology and business to health, the arts, and spirituality. You are paid based upon a per-minute rate of your choosing. LivePerson will take a small portion of the revenue you earn. View the LivePerson Expert Terms and Conditions for more information. You’ll be paid monthly via check or PayPal once you accrue at least $50.00. Visit the website to apply to become an expert.
2.) BitWine.com – BitWine is another “expert answers” website which will pay you to chat with clients who need advice on a myriad of subjects. They will accept “people with expertise or talent in any field, which is to say, anyone!” Some networks will require professional credentials, but others are open to most anyone. Instant messaging, phone calls, and Skype are available mediums for dealing with clients. You can choose your own per-minute rate, of which BitWine takes a 20 percent commission. You’ll be paid via PayPal immediately after the session with a client has ended – no waiting for payment!
