Curated.com is a platform that connects shoppers with real outdoor experts for personalized gear advice — and they're looking for knowledgeable skiers, snowboarders, and outdoor enthusiasts to join their network of paid experts.
How Curated Works
Shoppers visit Curated looking for gear recommendations. Instead of reading anonymous reviews, they're matched with a real expert who asks questions, understands their needs, and makes personalized recommendations. Experts earn commissions on sales made through their recommendations.
Who Makes a Good Expert
If you've been skiing or snowboarding for years, understand the difference between a 90mm and 110mm waist width, know what makes a boot stiff or soft, and can talk someone through the buying decision they're trying to make — you're a strong candidate. You don't need to be a professional athlete. You need to be genuinely helpful.
The Earning Potential
Commission rates vary by category and product, but ski gear — with its high average order values — makes this a meaningful income stream for serious experts who build a following on the platform. Experts who consistently deliver good advice and high satisfaction ratings tend to receive more matches over time.
How to Apply
Visit Curated.com and apply as an expert in your relevant category. The application process includes a brief assessment of your knowledge and experience. Accepted experts receive training on the platform, tools for managing customer conversations, and access to Curated's product catalog.
If you're already the person your friends call before buying skis, you might as well get paid for it.
