In case you missed it, we were on Good Morning America this morning. If you did miss it, that’s okay because you were probably sleeping and we’re happy to be sleeping vicariously through you.The response from GMA’s story on us has been immense and a little overwhelming.
Their piece was extremely flattering, and they were even kind enough to mention that we’re still developing and that our users are experiencing a little bit of a hiccup every now and then.Check it out for yourself! Let us know what you think!
Big props to our friend Rick for editing this and putting it on YouTube!

Thanks Rick!
2:20 p.m. EST and no comments on this entry yet? Well, I will step up and bow down to that honor!
My father called this morning to fill me in on the GMA newscast, and boy was I excited! I had my initial “application” filled out before we got off the phone. I know the response has been tremendous, and I believe that the concept is fantastic. Whether or not I get picked as a guide, I certainly hope the fine folks at ChaCha succeed!
Thank you for posting the YouTube video.
haha awesome! You guys are welcome =)
I never miss GMA and I am so glad I dont. I even sadly saw the 2 planes hit the Towers that very sad morning. I did see Cha Cha and OH MY GAWDDDDDDD I almost broke my neck getting to the PC and applying.!!!!! I loved the part where its new and I have always wanted to grow with a company and help it take its baby steps to Greatness which is the only way CHACHA will walk too.
Good Luck from the bottom of my heart
Hoping to be picked to hold a hand of Cha Cha’s and help it walk to stardom

I too was excited when I saw the newscast on GMA this morning. I am a stay home mom and I have searched high and low for an exciting stay home job like this one and they either want money or just empty promises…..then just when I thought I should give up, ChaCha comes along!!! This is great and I know its still new and all but I believe in it and I hope I also get accepted as a guide.
Infact, while my application is still being considered, let me know if I can contribute in any way. It will be an honor. Great job guys! Goodluck.

When you CALL customer service, say like your insurance company for example, you get automated responses and that can be really frustrating cos you want a REAL person to talk to. Its the same when you search the internet and you get multiple results and dont know which is which. With the new CHACHA concept, its a relief to have the option of interacting with a REAL person who will guide you. This is great!!
It was a great piece - I saw it East Coast time, and my mother saw it West Coast time - she called me IMMEDIATELY to be a guide, since I do this for her. My “application” is all filled out - can’t wait to be part of the experiment!
I couldn\’t get to my computer fast enough yesterday after watching your segment on GMA! I am a mother struggling through a horrible phase … wanting to work, needing ($) to work, but having too many kids to make it all feasible unless I can do it from home! Your site gives me hope. I\’m a research nut … you mean I can find a job that I can do from home that uses THAT quality?!?
My excitement is barely containable!
By the way … you guys are awesome for pursuing this dream! Roll on!
I Cha you Cha we all love to ChaCha
I think this is an idea that has been percolating for some time. There are guides for Safari\’s, guides for fishing, guides for hiking, guides to find the right college, guides for international discovery, guides to \’show you around\’, guides for dude ranches. Guides = people or those individuals with expertise+experience to help \’shorten\’ your \”need to know\” and to give you \’faster answers\’.
Everything is \’faster\’ today. Guides for online, internet information and cyber-knowledge are becoming necessary as the amount of information now requires some experts who know the shortcuts and can smooth-out your search. Answers, or at the very least, information from KNOWLEDGEABLE persons (this is important, it is an actual PERSON), who can guide, instruct, inform and HELP YOU find what you are looking for.
The fact is this: if you are spending time researching something, it is probably IMPORTANT to you. You want to be TOTALLY informed. What a great resourse to go to someone who spends most of their life, most of their time and energy in the area that YOU need information in. Say, you want to go bass fishing. You know a good lake, and you have \’heard\’ it is full of bass. However, the bass are in certain areas of the lake. For a nominal fee, you can have a GUIDE go with you, show you where the bass are located, make your experience MAXIMIZED. Only for a few extra dollars, you pay for the expertise and your experience has now gone from \”gee, I hope we can catch some fish, to = WOW, the fish are going NUTS today. THANK YOU, Mr. Guide. We had a helluva day, all thanks to you.
This Cha-Cha is the same thing, folks. Informed, smart, educated people ENJOY helping others to avoid mistakes, i.e. real estate decisions, attorney decisions, any kind of decision, actually, and they can make your experience more FUN, save you MONEY, and make YOU more knowledgeable about what you are interested in.
I have said enough. I think this is a great idea. I hope you consider me for a guide, as well. ( I have emailed you ChaCha reps).
Thanks for enduring my lengthy opinion on this site. This is going to be fantastic, trust me.

I was excited to see payment start to get finalized! It all seems like it is coming together nicely- great job!
I also saw the Good Morning America segment and I immediately logged on. I couldnt get through at first BUT as I soon as I could, I registered, began training and now 2 days later, I made some cash! This is awesome. I’ve sent invites to all of my college friends and work buddies. Its an excellent way to have an extra job but its nice to help people along the way.
I saw GMA while I was away for the weekend and the first thing I did when I got home was email them to become a part of this. Thanks GMA family for airing this!
I too learned of Cha Cha from GMA. I thought they did a wonderful job promoting this site and the brains behind the concept. Of course, I was interested but a little skeptical, so I waited a few days.
There are legitimate work at home opportunities out there, but they are way out numbered by the scams. This sounded a little to good to be true.
This is right up my alley!
Searching and researching over the web has become a way of life for me. I love having such a vast amount of information available. Learning HOW to search can be a challenge, more so for those who are short on time or patience.
The final decision to apply was made after a few of my “waha co-workers” replied to my Post with much more enthusiasm than I expected. They are newbie ChaCha Guides.
I look forward to the experience, sounds like everyone really loves what you do here.
I saw ChaCha on GMA. I too felt a bit skeptical. My husband is the one that said I should give it a look into. I love to research things and I’m pretty okay on the internet as well. I believe this is a great way to help people, another one of my favorite things to do. I am now in training mode and can’t wait to actually make money doing what I love to do. I am a stay at home mom but both of my kids are in school during the days. I volunteer at their school often, but on the days I’m home it gets a bit too quiet and boring. This is a great way for me to feel “connected” to the world! Keep up the great work everyone at ChaCha. You have all been so helpful to me and I appreciate that I can give some of that helpfulness to someone else. Bless you all!
Hello everyone,
I’m another one of the lucky ones to be watching GMA that morning! I also had a problem getting onto the site. I waited a few days and successfully made it here. I too have been looking for work at home for a long time. I have 6 kids and 2 of them are in college. I spend quite a bit of time on the computer and this was the perfect opportunity for me! I can’t wait to get started training! Looking forward to getting started. Thanks for this awesome opportunity!
