A Client is any individual or organization that desires information from a consulting expert. XpertsNow was created to help Clients find a consultant quickly and easily. As a Client, XpertsNow is completely free. 

XpertsNow offers two pathways to find the Xpert you need. Search Xperts – Instantly review resumes, links, videos and additional information provided by Xperts to help find the right consultants quickly through our search engine. We also offer the ProjectsNow posting board. Please review both methods below to find the best method for you.

Getting Started:

• Sign Up – Simply supply your name / email address and create a password. Once saved, an email confirmation will be sent to you for security purposes. 
• All XpertsNow members have a dashboard that includes your inbox, saved items and ProjectsNow information. 

Search Methods:

Search Xperts

• Go to Search Xperts to begin the search process. Be as descriptive as possible when entering information to locate the best match. Please enter specific keywords related to your needs, as this will help the search engine identify the right Xperts for you.
• When you find Xperts that fit your criteria, you can send a message to one or multiple Xperts regarding your potential interest in hiring them by clicking the Contact Xpert tab.  
• Contacted Xperts who believe they can help will then respond to you via our internal message system. These messages will show up in your XpertsNow Inbox and you will receive an email notification.
• As Xperts reply back to you, our site will automatically generate a discrete thread within our internal messaging and voice/video system that can only be seen by you and the Xpert. Our internal messaging and voice/video option allows both parties a safe and efficient method to communicate.  
• Both parties can then discuss the assignment and share files to reach agreement on financial and other parameters. 
• When an agreement is made between both parties, you are set to begin your project! 

Attract Xperts using ProjectsNow

• If a Client chooses not to perform a direct search or wishes to receive multiple inquiries from Xperts with little effort, they can create and post a project on the ProjectsNow board. Simply click on the ProjectsNow tab and hit the Post a Project button. 
• Enter the details and duration of your project. We recommend including relevant key words and a short description regarding the type of Xpert desired and services needed. Please note that the date you enter into the Proposal Deadline Date field will automatically remove your project post from the board the following day.

• When you have all of your relevant information listed in your post, please hit Save. An email will be sent to you confirming your project has been posted. You can also share your project post on social media by clicking the share ‘+’ button in the upper right hand corner of your profile. 

• • Once posted, interested Xperts can contact you via our internal system. Xperts can include a cover note and any preliminary attachments. You will receive an email notification of their interest. 
  • You can remove your posted project at any time by clicking on Edit Project in your Posted Projects tab. 
  • In your dashboard, a list of interested Xperts will appear in your Posted Projects tab. When you click on an Xpert’s link, you can review their profile qualifications, cover note and attachments to help you decide which Xperts you would like to communicate with further. 
  • Similar to a Client-Xpert Direct Search, you can communicate with the Xpert using our internal messaging system. During the review and communication process, you will also be allowed to save and send pre hire project attachments back to that specific Xpert by clicking the Share Documents tab.
  • Once you’ve chosen an Xpert, we offer free project management tools to assist you. Simply select your hired Xpert and click the Select Xpert button. This will export communications and attachments used in the selection process to the Ongoing Projects folder on your dashboard for use during the project. 
  • Selecting the Select Xpert button will also automatically remove your project post from the ProjectsNow board. However, the Xperts that expressed interest but were not hired will be saved for your future reference. 
  • In your Ongoing Projects folder you can save important notes and attachments to your project folder. You can also mark the project as cancelled or concluded with that Xpert, which will then move the project to Cancelled Projects or Concluded Projects folders respectively. 

• If a Client wishes to earn money as a Consulting Xpert, please create an Xpert profile on XpertsNow for free. You can easily switch your account type using the same email/login credentials. Once registered as an Xpert, simply click the Switch Account button in the dropdown to toggle between your accounts.

As an Xpert, you can list your qualifications and experience on XpertsNow free of charge. We will never take a percentage of your fees based on the work you do. Please follow the instructions below to advertise your services to clients worldwide for free!
