The consult feature is in development for the next release. You decide if you want to provide this service in your profile. The idea is to make it easy for you to turn-on/turn-off this feature. Initially, we see 30-minute and 60-minute blocks of time, where you determine the price.

So, if for example you sell accounting services and I am looking for an accountant, I will pay you $xx amount of money to have an initial consultation.

You may prices your services high or low, depending on supply demand. But, for me as a buyer, it's a transparent low-risk way for me to meet/evaluate a professional that I am considering to hire.

The platform would take a % of the consult fee paid, which would take place off-platform [Ex. Stripe].
