Just tried it out- it is great. Read the WSJ article and signed up to becoem a guide. Hope I hear from you. I have 2 blogs :>
great "free" service, but if you charged for it, in my opinion, like all things with an internet/mobile price tag your volume would evaporate, so the 1? you would be my only guide for, how do you monetize this, other than flipping it, so that it's sustainable and it can continue to be "great"? To date, the free 411 guys are building great burn rates, not too tough competing against $1.50 carrier alternatives. Please tell me you'll live on and not burn so brightly!
Bob, thanks for the post and for using ChaCha. I often get the monetization q. you raise. ChaCha has multiple revenue opportunities including online sponsorships via chacha.com and enhanced offers when they add value for the customer via mobile. Don't be surprised to also see ChaCha powered features emerge as an extension to paid 411 services. These are just a few examples - we are working around the clock to invent many things including the optimal monetization models for mobile.
Kate - Glad to hear that ChaCha is proving to be valuable for you and that you signed up to be a guide! Best, --Brad
