“Zintro allowed us to communicate and connect” – Reece Eaton


Reece Eaton is an expert in the UK new media industry with an emphasis on operations related to advertising serving and online advertising products. He builds online ad networks and has trafficked large pan euro campaigns to publisher websites. He has also dealt with online ad inventory, pricing, and reporting for major international publishers.

He received an inquiry from the Zintro system from a potential client who was looking for an expert for marketing/social media/PR programming. The client was a small privately held company that was launching a new service in the health and wellness field and was looking to tie in social media. The company turned to Zintro to look for an adviser to help them decide what type of social media was the best fit and provide ongoing overview advice to help them stay on track moving forward.

“It was an excellent opportunity to work directly with a business to improve its ROI on ad spends. The client was in New Zealand and I am in the UK. We had a phone discussion about the project. It looks like we are going to continue to work together on it,” says Eaton. “Zintro allowed us to communicate and connect. How else would I be able to match my expertise to an individual’s requirements on the other side of the world? I receive inquires every week that are matched closely to my expertise. And the payment process is easy and speedy.”

“It’s likely my relationship with this client will continue.” – Charles Ivie


Charles Ivie is a retired NASA research scientist, astronomer, and space craft systems designer. He has worked in the aerospace and science arena for over 40 years. Most of that time was spent at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, but his work job also took him to other NASA centers including the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Cape Canaveral in Florida, and NASA headquarters in Washington DC.

With specialties in optical and radio astronomy, spacecraft science systems design, and relativistic physics and quantum mechanics, Ivie was able to help a client he connected with on Zintro. This client was preparing a paper on black hole physics and quasars. The researcher did not have a strong background in this area and was looking for someone with a background in astrophysics.

“My work in cosmology helped this client with his search for a method to refine the determination of Quasar population based on various detection procedures and techniques,” says Ivie. “It is likely that my relationship with this client will continue as he prepares a scientific paper on the topic.”

“I am fortunate that Zintro exists,” Crabtree.


 Charles Crabtree is among those rare people who spent an entire career with one company: Lockheed Martin Aeronautical Corporation.

Working his way from the bottom up, learning as he climbed the ladder and becoming successful at various positions during his 49 year stint with the company.  “I learned the planning of composites, assembly and detail, electrical and avionics, modification, machined parts, corrective action, and tubing,” says Crabtree. “And because of my knowledge and vast experience, I was able to produce about twice the production as the average worker.” Crabtree is a testament on how to master a craft within one company while growing as it succeeds.

It is with this vast knowledge that he joined Zintro as an expert in aeronautical tool and manufacturing planning. And at 75 years of age, Crabtree knows that his knowledge and experience are still relevant in the marketplace. He received an inquiry from the Zintro system from a client looking to speak to aerospace engineers or part purchasers familiar with the decision process for buying extruded plastic parts/components for the aerospace industry. Crabtree jumped on the opportunity. “I am fortunate that Zintro exists,” says Crabtree. “Zintro values experience over age and this led me to being accepted for the phone consult job. I appreciate Zintro because it allows me to continue to practice my skill at 75 when most companies will not hire beyond 55 years of age. Zintro provides a marketplace for people with special skills regardless of age.”

Although another (non-Zintro) consultant had previously helped to resolved the problem, that consultant had not properly documented the solution. Unfortunately for the client, the problem arose again. Rick, with vast knowledge in this area was able to quickly resolve the issue and provide the client with adequate documentation (including screen-shots) on how he reconfigured their web server to permanently eliminate the problem. “It was a win-win for all parties thanks to Zintro . Zintro provides exposure for my consulting practice to a global client-base I otherwise would not be able to reach.”says Rick Backus.

“Zintro provided a perfect match” – Suresh Bhatt


Suresh Bhatt is an independent mining consultant involved in coal property valuation, sales, and consulting. With 40 years of experience, Bhatt has been involved in all aspects of mining coal and non-coal. He has worked for the US Bureau of Mines/NIOSH responsible for mining automation/haulage, highwall, longwall, production, accident analysis, safety, workers compensation insurance, and slope stability.

When he received a recent inquiry on the Zintro system, he could not believe how perfect a match it was with his expertise and the client’s needs. The inquiry on mining procurement was from an analyst for a research company headquartered in London and with offices in India. The analyst had been retained by a global mining company to understand the global market scenario for bolts and wire mesh required for ground support. Bhatt, who lives in the US, responded immediately and his proposal was accepted.

“I have been in the mining consulting business for over 40 years and work for numerous research and consulting firms. Zintro provided a perfect match between my expertise and the client’s needs in India,” Bhatt says. “The project was very specialized, and I handled it effectively.” Bhatt says that the whole process with Zintro from expert selection to payment of services was flawless and completed in about a week. “Zintro offered me great service to the worldwide professional community. I am highly impressed with its efficiency and management and will spread the word among my business friends,” he says.

K. Michael Janas: “Zintro provides companies an instant solution.”


K. Michael Janas is a human resources management consultant who has worked with with Fortune 100 and Big 4 companies that include Johnson & Johnson, Eaton Corporation, Coopers & Lybrand, and PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Janas has had several great opportunities on Zintro to share his global human resources best practices and HR research findings with clients. “I’ve helped to improve client products to make them more competitive and robust. There have been ah-ha moments where the client realized the information he was looking for,” he says.

“Zintro’s advantage for me is that now I have the ability to market my skills, knowledge, and experience. I get the opportunity to move a company forward, saving it money because I can share the human resources best practices that I am expert in. And this is fulfilling for me personally,” says Janas. “With the movement of companies to a new workforce where a company meets its needs using contingent workers rather than hiring new employees, Zintro provides companies an instant solution. Zintro provides a stage for me to sell my services and stand-out in the crowd, while networking. Also, it has given me a targeted audience with which to share my research, whitepapers, and book contributions.”
