Operator manages your inbound requests for advice, meeting appointments, and calendar invites so you or your team do not have to. You can edit your profile at any time, review meeting requests on the go, and receive calendar invites and video meeting links directly to your inbox.
Each expert creates a profile that includes their work experience, areas of expertise, and meeting rate per hour. Adjust your calendar whenever you want, according to your availability. You’ll have the option to accept or deny meeting requests if your availability changes or if the client's meeting scope is not in line with your area of expertise.
Operator is all about enriching the world and giving back to the community. You will have the opportunity to help teach and influence individuals and brands, sharing all the knowledge you’ve acquired during your career. Your impact does not stop there. Once meetings are complete experts receive payment via Stripe. All experts can opt-out of being paid directly and instead donate their payment to a good cause.
While Operator was created to democratize access for individuals to meet with executives and to help streamline meeting management, we are also creating a community amongst our Operators. High-level talent can meet new people and communicate in confidence.

Our Operators are business leaders who specialize in marketing, communications, advertising, go-to-market strategy, business transformation, diversity equity and inclusion, management, and more.
I love the idea of a "Fiverr for domain expertise." Sometimes you just want to float ideas or brainstorm outside of your company -- and it makes a ton of sense to build a network for this use case.

Excited by the innovative approach to connecting clients and experts versus the traditional agency model which is archaic and inefficient. Always keen to expand my professional network and be of service where I can add value.
