Hugging People - It's big business!

According to this post on Newstime, this NY Graduate student Jacqueline Samuel charges around $60 an hour for a cuddling session. Her business is so popular and in so much demand that she's had to hire and add more professional snugglers to her work force who get orders and go and drive to their location and give them a hug. Charging people $100 for 45 minutes, $120 for 60 minutes and $180 for 90 minutes.

Crazy right? Who'd have thought hugging someone would pay so well? Apparently the snuggling sessions are meant to be therapeutic and comforting, building on the "psychological and physical benefits of nonsexual touch". What's as crazy is that Jacqueline wanted to have that professional touch by seeking out training on how to give hugs but could not actually find anything. But it hasn't slowed business down!

So really all it seems you have to do is start advertising this as a service. You could place cards in shop windows, community boards etc and advertise online / social media etc. Then you'd just have to get someone contact you who was in need of a good hug and then go to them or send someone to them to hug them. Or have a snuggling session with them! Then collect the payment and go home.

The only thing about this job, despite it paying well, is that it would involve getting very close to people. Obviously. You can't hug someone from a distance. But if you're the sort of person who will happily give some poor lonely soul a hug to cheer them up if they want to pay you $10 a 10 second hug then why not!? 10 Weird and Whacky Ways to Make Money: Professional Body Hugger

How to get work as a professional body hugger?

You can find this online. There are a number of websites that sell body hugs. You can go to them and purchase a body hug from someone. But you can also apply to be a hugger on some of them too. You'll probably have to have some hugging XP though!

You could also busk it! Just put a sandwich board out saying professional body hugging. Get your 60 second hug for $5 or something in the middle of a busy street. Then as people pass ask them if they want or need a hug. Not at all looking like the front for an Oliver Twist style pick pocketing campaign lol.

LOL well actually I think this is an awesome idea. I think it is something a lot of people need and enjoy. In fact I read an article somewhere that a lot of men that visit prostitutes don't even want sexual acts, they just want to cuddle!

What a cool job making people happy like that? I would start my own business doing this though rather than be employed by someone because you know it is not like there are a lot of overheads or anything. Yes the travel costs and advertising costs would come in but I can't think of anything else needed. I wouldn't want a boss to take all the money from my cuddling efforts.

Gosh now I am thinking of starting a new website in my area and finding cuddlers to work for me.

That will be the first to read about this. Usually men do enjoy the prostitutes and i can tell you for sure that is not for cuddling. Anyhow, if there is a demand of cuddling then why not to profit.

I don't want to judge but how desperate you have to be in order to hire someone to hug and hold you? I mean, what's wrong with the traditional way of getting hugs? talk to a girl, buy her a dinner and hope for the best?

The thing with this service is that it's just a temporary fix and not a permanent solution.

Well I don't think I want a stranger hugging and cuddling me even if it was free LOL. So paying for something like that feels a little odd for me.

Hey about the prostitute thing, that's just what I heard. I read some article that said there are a good few men that use the service to just cuddle. Go figure right?

I believe no one in their right mind would hire a total stranger to cuddle with them. At least, i won't hire someone to cuddle with me and i would like to believe that I'm a sane person.
Regarding the other matter, you might be right. I will look for that article to see these guys, maybe soon they will start giving them flowers.
You never know...

LOL well haven't you heard about the Girlfriend Experience (GFE)? Yes I think probably a lot of men buy flowers for prostitutes. Apparently a lot of men look want to feel like a boyfriend and not like tjhey are paying just for sex...

I'm just finding this funny at the money. In as much as I know that there is this possibility of a woman doing the work of a cuddler quite well and getting paid, this is not the work a man will feel okay trying to do. I mean this is quite ridiculous to see that people can pay you for cuddling them.

I know that the main purpose of this discussion is to give us a respite to our tedious freelancing work. But there is some truth in that kind of job even if it is not a common job that we see from day to day. I think it is fun to have that kind of job but do you think I can earn a livelihood from that? And I guess that kind of job is not lasting which means it is just on a project basis.
