82ASK traffic going through the roof; help needed

Sarah McVittie, the one-girl-whirlwind, is on a roll with her team over at 82ASK Towers. I keep walking by their office and keep meaning to drop in and actually say hi. She’s on my Facebook, but I’ve never actually met her or her colleagues yet.

The key bit of news is this, though: 82ASK traffic is reportedly heading north-of-huge (28% month-on-month!) and I’m told that they’re hunting for textperts. You need to be quick though.

They got a stunning write up in The Guardian recently — the piece is a fascinating read. Do check it out.

If you’re interested in becoming a textpert, it’s potentially lucrative. Just work on the basis of 30p per question answered and, quoting from The Guardian article, …

…as can be seen from 82ask’s Glasgow based football texpert who has just passed the 100,000 mark for questions answered.

That’s a cool £30k. Nice!

Stay tuned to this page on the 82ASK site for details.

Update: Just found this page here with more details.

    Ewan,

    Any chance that you could change the link to this:

    (I’ve been wondering why I’ve been receiving texpert applications – it turns out that they’ve been responding to my advert for software engineers ;-)

    Thanks!
