Advice is free.
Expertise is not.
Neither for the person who has earned it nor for the person who seeks it.
If you don't want your expert advice go to waste, put a price on it.
Experty—monetize your expertise!
Experty will change not only the consultant business, but also a large swath of commerce across the world!
While Experty's introductory video describes several case uses with lawyers, business advisors, medical doctors and bloggers, I envision an exponentially larger ecosystem that will change the way people conduct business across multiple sectors.
My analysis has multiple Experty use cases that I have not seen discussed on Youtube, reviews or other social medias. For brevity, I include only the five most obvious groups of Experty users and a handful of use cases to illustrate my points.
Group A
Highly Skilled Professionals: Lawyers, business, accountants, doctors, medical specialists, professional business/law/technical consultants
Experty is already focused on this group of professionals, so I do not need to expand on this group.
Group B
Education: Academics, tutors, editors, online language teachers, online academic tutors, professional editors, sport coaches
Group C
Tradesmen: Electricians, home repairmen, handymen, plumbers, landscapers, inspectors
People in the skilled trade industries such as listed above usually receive queries for services, which generally require a considerable amount of time/energy to address. Tradesmen must spend time on the phone to assess the problem and then often travel to the work site to make a proper estimate of the work. Many tradesmen simply charge a flat fee to even do a site visit to look at the job. This is inefficient use of the tradesman's time, and it is wasteful to the client who may need to get several estimates from various tradesmen before deciding on one contractor for the job.
With Experty, a client could simple call the tradesman via video chat and pay a small per minute fee to get a quick consultation and price estimate. The tradesman may or may not need to make a house visit, depending on the info the consumer relayed via chat and video. The consumer may or may not want to hire this particular tradesman based on their video chat. In any case, the client would pay, perhaps, a few dollars to the tradesman for his time and advice, saving on the larger fees charged by the tradesman for physically visiting the “job” site. Furthermore, the client would not feel “pressured” by the tradesman during a site visit. Likewise, the tradesman does not feel “pressured” to close a contract at that instant to recoup his time-energy in traveling to site to evaluate the job.
Group D
Service Industry: Concierge, travel advice, agents, translators, guides, customer service, technical assistance, bloggers, restaurant critics, Yelp reviewers, life consultants/therapist/coach
This is a wide open sector. Almost anyone could monetize his/her expertise or local knowledge by offering his/her service via LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Yelp or any social channel. Simply adding a link to his/her Experty platform would allow a person to offer consultation services that could range from helping a stranger find an affordable hotel or a good restaurant. The possibilities are endless.
Group E
Entertainment: Fortune tellers, astrologers, Virtual Reality casters, Adult Entertainers
Entertainment providers who have long depended on the phone companies and the charge-per-minute system will quickly adopt Experty platform, a low-cost decentralized system with high bandwidth. They are no longer trapped in using the legacy payment channels which take high commissions.
Adult entertainers will have access to live (or recorded) video streaming and payment processing platform that is light-years more advance than their current website hosting and payment processing services. Certainly, their clients would appreciate the upgrade and ease of use.
Perhaps, in the near future, virtual reality casters, from adventurers to performers to sports persons, can use Experty to share their experiences and be paid for it.
In the current sports/live event environment, some viewers find that they prefer commentators who are not picked by program producers. Any popular commentator could use Experty to video cast his commentary to his audience.
I have many more examples of case uses, but I imagine the Experty team must have just as many use cases that they have not made public. I will end my contribution here with The-Most-Compelling Reason-Why-Experts-Will-Adopt-Experty:
Experty gives us a seamless, elegant way to monetize our knowledge.
Experty is the ecosystem that will enable hundreds of millions of people all around the world.
For this, I am deeply grateful and proud to support Experty.
