The Importance of Clarity

If you haven't checked out Clarity.fm then I suggest you seriously consider taking a look. Visit Clarity.fm The basic premise of the site is that it lets you connect and schedule calls with experts around the world on a whole variety of topics such as technology, VC, PR, growth etc basically all of the key challenges faced by startups. Experts are searchable in a directory style using tags and you have the ability sort based on a variety of fields including rate, rating and location. Each expert defines a minutely rates which typically range from between $1.67 and $25 with the average being around $2-3 mark. Often this money is pledged to that experts favourite cause rather than this being an actual revenue stream, allowing experts to provide their advice in a philanthropic way. An important piece to note is that this is not just a list of self proclaimed experts looking to make a quick buck there are some very impressive people on this list already, for example Brad Feld the much respected founder of Tech Stars can be called for $8.87 per minute. When scheduling a call the process couldn't be simpler. You have 140 characters to explain to your chosen expert why you wish to speak and suggest 3 date/times along with a expected call duration of either 15,30,45 or 60 minutes. At this stage an expert can chose to decline your request, suggest a different time slot or accept one of your suggestions. Once accepted you can then open up a message dialogue and share any important pre call information. Once an agreed time is set you are sent conference call login details and you will be billed for the time you spend on the call to the expert through a credit card. For me I think a service like this is a game changer the ability to dip in on an ad-hoc basis to various experts is phenomenally powerful and at the kind of rates most calls are being charged at I think you would struggle to not see a return on investment of your call and get great value. By having these type of conversations you can potentially avoid costly mistakes and get an often needed external perspective on the challenges you face. As a founder of a number of startups one thing I have always tried to find was independent expert advice from people who had been in similar situations previously and had nothing to gain/lose by just giving an honest perspective, I think Clarity really solves that challenge and would highly recommend you check it out.

Pro-wrestlers, Get Paid For Your Advice

Pro-Westlers and Wrestlepreneurs  can now use their phone to get paid for the skills, experience and wisdom thanks to Clarity.fm(https://clarity.fm/home). Clarity.fm is a web service that enables users to discover and connect with entrepreneurs/experts for "battle tested" advice.

The service is relatively easy to join. You  sign up via Linkedin. You add your professional details with a video if you choose. Link your PayPal, set your rate(per minute), choose your area of expertise and wait for phone calls. To learn more about the service from the experts side,  go to https://clarity.fm/expert.

I suggested this web service for two reasons. First, many wrestlers work double time to sustain themselves i.e. podcasts, pictures at events, merchandise, training or stuntwork. Clarity is a very convenient and simple path to bring in additional income-it just requires your phone, and a conversation about your experiences.  Secondly, I do think that many indy wrestlers have great career and business advice to give because of their hustle to create a brand and garner national recognition. Many possess grassroot/startup skills that are valuable in the digital age for social media marketing and promotion.

If you want to know more about Clarity, you can follow them at twitter https://twitter.com/getmoreclarity or check out their site https://clarity.fm/home. They have a free book for download as well: http://clarity.fm/startupadvice.

A look at the paid funnel for Clarity.fm using Facebook Ads. This startup offers a rolodex service for entrepreneurs looking to get in contact with successful mentors, and advisors with the click of a button.

They're running ads that lead to a direct sale in which Clarity.fm takes a cut, very easy to see legitimate positive or negative returns on an ad budget spend.

The ads:

The Landing Page:

These facebook ads are pointing to the matching profile of the advisors in the description, the landing page looks like this.

What's interesting is the meta data on the link:

Medium: CPC

Campaign:

Need Startup Advice "Ad Concept"

Tyler Crowley "Advisor"

Clarity is using four variables when rotating their ads. When you take into account how many mentors they may be running ads against, plus the number of variations for each, this is a pretty comprehensive advertising process supported by a decent sized budget.

Good to see.
