I got inspired by an idea this evening and decided to offer a 60-minute consultation to someone. I don’t know what to charge for it, so I created an eBay auction to let the marketplace decide the final price.

The auction goes for 7 days, and it’s already underway, so the clock is ticking.

The bidding starts at only $0.99. The auction is public, so everyone can see what the final price is. There is no “buy now” price. Highest bid wins it.

If you’re the winning bidder, you can use the 60-minute consultation however you wish, as long as you schedule it as a single block of time. It’s fine to divide that time between multiple people if you want to split it with someone.

I can call you by regular phone or Skype. We can even do it via video-Skype if you’d like.

I have a flexible schedule, so it should be easy for us to agree on a time for the call.

During the call, we can talk about anything you’d like, and I will do my best to advise you as I would for one of my closest friends.

You can ask for help or advice regarding anything you desire — personal or professional challenges, blogging, online business, career transitions, financial abundance, health, relationships, spiritual growth, habit change, etc. You can even spend an hour pitching me on a business proposal if that’s your thing.

I’ve never done this before, and I may never do it again. For now this is a one-time offering, sparked by curiosity.

Update: For the results of this experiment, see this post.
