Chacha
Let us start by explaining what ChaCha is. ChaCha is an Internet company that provides SMS answers to SMS questions. In short, you text a question to ChaCha and someone texts an answer back. The person on the other end sending the message back is known as a guide. A ChaCha guide is an independent contractor who works from home answering ChaCha queries. Now, that is what ChaCha is, let me tell you about my experience working for ChaCha.
I stumbled upon ChaCha through another Internet based money making idea I had been working with for some time. I was curious about what ChaCha could offer me, to say the least. I took the ChaCha test, and passed. "Wow!" I thought. I began working for ChaCha and loved every minute of it. I was able to work when I wanted, for as long as I wanted, and able to take off when I needed. This job was a stay-at-home-mom's dream. I often worked in the evenings when my spouse was home to help watch the children, or sometimes early in the morning before my kids were even out of bed. My relationship with ChaCha was definitely awesome at this point.
Well, I worked for ChaCha for nearly two months and never had one problem. Until, I went to log in to my account on day and was greeted with "This guide has been deactivated. Sorry for any inconvenience.". Deactivated? Inconvenience did not even begin to describe what this situation amounted to. I was enraged. I sent feedback to ChaCha, looking for answers. Needless to say, the ChaCha service department never replied. The icing on that cake is, they also never paid out my remaining balance after they deactivated my account.
If you are thinking about working for ChaCha, I would defiantly urge you to give it a go because it is good while it lasts. My advice, however, is to defiantly be mindful of cashing out your balance frequently just in case you log in to any "inconvenient" messages. In short, the company is a great idea and for the most part is a great money making opportunity. The downside of ChaCha is the inconsistency that goes along with this money making opportunity.
The important thing to remember, never put all of your eggs in one basket. If you are willing to risk not getting paid for your hard work, give ChaCha a try and see how it works out for you. Just make sure that you keep other doors open as well or you may find yourself high and dry after a go with ChaCha.
