1.  What is your Independent Business Owner ID Number?



A:  34497

​

2.  How much can I make working from home and how will I be paid?

​

A:  Service pay structures are set on either a per hour basis which is at a fixed rate or per call minute which is a variable rate.  The pay rates range from $9-$16 per hour with some opportunities for sales and service applications to provide performance bonuses and incentives.  CSP's are paid twice a month on the 8th (which covers the 16th through the last day of the month) and on the 25th (which covers the 1st through the 15th). 

​

3.  Can I work full-time hours?

​

A:  Most of the clients have a minimum hourly requirement, but you are able to work as many clients as you are able to service as long as you satisfy the minimum hourly requirement.  For example, if a client has a minimum of 20 hours per week as long as you work your required 20 hours you are free to service another client. You are also able to work additional hours outside of your minimum requirement if the hours are available. â€‹





​4.  What type of opportunities are available?

​

A:  The opportunities are mostly service support in customer service, chat, technical support, and sales.  You are able to choose the client you want to service.  Most of the opportunities are customer service focused but some clients offer sales and sales support opportunities.  All CSP's are able to view the opportunity announcement before expressing interest in a position.  I recommend that you review the opportunity to make sure it is a good fit for you.

​

5.  As an independent contractor how will I file my taxes?

​

A:  Independent contractors will receive a 1099 at the end of the year.   What does this mean to you?  Instead of taxes being taken out per pay check during the year they are taken at the end of the year when you file your taxes.

​

​

A:  No we do not require our CSP's to sign a contract and you are not obligated to work for any specific period of time.

The Arise service fee is currently $19.75 and is deducted twice a month from your Independent Business Owner Service Fees for each servicing Independent Business Owner employee.  The 19.75 Arise service fee is included into the $60.00 monthly flat rate fee.

​

​14.  What are the computer requirements and phone requirement?

​
