First, the idea and lastly how to take it to the next level.
I am going to make this short and sweet. I stumbled upon a Youtube video where the girl linked out to this website. She charges $80 an hour for sessions and it got me thinking, who can use this website and for what purpose?
This is their FAQ:
It clearly states that anybody can sign up and become an expert without a degree or certification or even experience. It states that they take a 20% fee for providing the platform to sell on. So there are no upfront costs (it also states this).
These education platforms are becoming more popular; mostly passive ones where the user watches pre-recorded videos - basically just selling a course. This is the first live one I've seen.
This is so easy though, how many members on bhw are bilingual? Probably a lot of you! You can teach your native language to the English speaking population. This is probably the best example I can think of that will help most of you. But you can teach anything. If you know HTML really well or even Photoshop I am sure you can push these services quite easily. There must be something that you know that somebody needs to learn. The beautiful part about this is that it is a one-on-one session. You start to teach somebody about this and they will come back for more if you do a good job. Imagine how long it would take you to teach somebody Spanish,Italian,German, [insert language here] - and if you charge them $20 an hour then you can easily make some decent, easy cash off of just a few students.
It's really that simple.
One last thing though - you will want to drive traffic to your profile, don't just set it up and wait for traffic from the platform - go out there and take it. Create Youtube videos and then also use Meathead's thread about SEO Jacking:

Don't over-complicate this, you know things that somebody else doesn't - and people are willing the pay a premium fee so that they can be guided - people love to be guided and you can use that to help them achieve their goals while achieving your own as well.
And once you have made enough then read below........
============================================================
One last thing, for the guys out there looking to pad their bank accounts with a lot more zeros than $20 an hour will - look at this as an opportunity and pounce on it. Like I said this is the first live training kind of site I have personally seen for experts. They are taking 20% of all sales on the site and the users are generating good traffic for them using their own lists.
My point is go make a site just like this and charge 15%, give it a better name and go add some zeros to your net worth.
