If you would consider yourself a messaging expert, whether it's one on one, via video or essentially any other medium, you could get paid for it. It makes sense, given that people are making money for Instagram posts and other social media promotions, that brands would be interested in messaging as a means to connect with consumers. Especially considering the number of companies offering live chat on websites or text-based customer service.
Flipe is a startup that would act as a channel for a messaging expert to sell their services through. It specifically helps those who would sell their skills through a subscription or usage-based model.
Flipe has yet to launch, but interested parties can sign up for their newsletter for updates.
