Google Helpouts is a new way to get — and give help — over live video.

When I first heard about Helpouts I immediately thought of the huge opportunity to earn money online. In fact folks are already doing so (check out a screen shot at the bottome of the page).

Here’s what Google has to say about Helpouts:

“Our goal is simple: help people help each other. We want to use the convenience and efficiency of the web to enable everyone, no matter where they are or what time it is, to easily connect with someone who can help.”

Check out this quick intro video from Google about Helpouts.

If you’re a solopreneur — or just looking to earn some part-time case — I hope you realized the huge potential that Helpouts has. A pretty cool opportunity to use what you already know and get paid for it — right from the comfort of your own home!

You could also use Helpouts and offer free advice or training as a lead magnet for your business. Again, the possibilities are pretty extensive and exciting.
