Remote Jobs: Earn Money Helping Others with Medication Management

by Mike Haaren       Sept. 12, 2024

If you’re looking for a side gig and you like to help people get better, these openings at Pleio might fit. They continue to recruit for their GoodStart Mentor positions.

Per the company, GoodStarters make upwards of $15/hr. Some GoodStarter reviews say average earnings are $20 – $28+/hr., but that’s not official. There’s also a $250 training bonus after onboarding and a minimum number of hours. The company also offers incentives.

You’d be helping patients get into a good routine with their meds, via phone using a script. No sales or medical experience needed. Workflow reportedly varies, so you should probably view this as occasional side income rather than a primary job.

The company may not be hiring from CA, OH, ND, WA and WY. (These states were excluded in earlier listings.)

Not a fit for everybody, but RRRebel Laura T. posted to our FB page, “I worked for them before. Basically calling people about their medicine and reading blurbs about it. Fairly easy gig. I was averaging about $1,000 a month but wasn’t pushing a whole lot. Some people did really well.” This may not be a typical experience, however, so “your mileage may vary.”

Here’s what the company has posted about the openings:

GoodStarters are contracted workers for Pleio. They work on an hourly scale and, like other gig economy jobs, the call volumes directly impact how much work is available. There are downtimes, and there are busy times and we do our best to make sure GoodStarters are prepared for both scenarios.

As we continue to build our business, it may require us to adjust scheduled working hours to meet the variability of call volume. There may be periods of peak volume where we ask for an increase in your regular hours worked. Equally, there are times where call volumes fall, and we may ask you to reduce your scheduled hours. Any requested increase or decrease to hours will be temporary and will be communicated in advance notice to any affected GoodStarters.

At Pleio, we keep our GoodStarters at the heart of what we do when meeting business demands.

Our GoodStarters are the best humans on the planet! We ask for a few skills to give them that “it” factor:

• 2 to 3 years of customer service experience.
• Strong verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
• Analytical and creative problem-solving abilities.
• Proficient decision-making skills.
• Intermediate technical skills, including experience with cloud environments.
• High school or equivalent (Preferred).
• Bilingual in Spanish is a plus!

Benefits of becoming a GoodStarter:

• Culture: There is an excellent culture among all the GoodStarters. GoodStarters belong to their own social media chat channel and talk throughout the day, bonding and getting to know each other in a remote environment.
• Work from Home: GoodStarters benefit from working from the comfort of their own home.
• Flexible Hours: GoodStarters can choose their own hours and even work early mornings, late evenings, and weekends to accommodate their busy lifestyle.
• No Selling: Unlike similar jobs, GoodStarters are not required to sell anything over the phone.
• No Cold Calling: Because GoodStarters calls in partnership with the patient’s pharmacy, no cold calling is involved.
• Feel Good by Doing Good: GoodStarters act out the mission of Pleio. They help patients who need support in their health journey. Our GoodStarters love what they do and feel-good coming work each day.
• Money: GoodStarters get paid on a sliding scale. The more you work and the more flexible you are (in terms of time of day) – the more opportunity to earn. Pleio offers an hourly activity rate in addition to incentives and performance bonuses to all GoodStarters.
• Training Bonus: Pleio offers a training bonus to GoodStarters once they’ve completed 60 hours of making calls.

Training

We have developed an online learning platform where GoodStarters can learn at their own pace called GoodStartU. All the training you’ll need to get started is available.

Additional certifications and training are offered throughout the year. Every month Pleio offers live webinar sessions with a focus on best practices and keys to success. 

Training is free and there are a wide variety of learning opportunities. The training to certify as a GoodStarter takes 10 – 15 hours on average. Pleio does not compensate for training, but instead offers a $250 bonus to new GoodStarters after meeting a minimum of 60 calling hours within 60 days.
