How to monetize this AIM robot idea ?

references and/or affiliate programs.
for example, if you were to write a movie bot, if your users want to find movie times, display the times and a link to buy a movie ticket, which would send them to fandango through your affiliate link.
solicit other websites without affiliate programs to get similar mentions on your bots.

I think an automated, IM-based help system could be a great product. If you have a website for these bots, you might create a help-bot to showcase how effective it can be.
If you want customers, go through Craigslist and for every support job that doesn't specify phone work, let them know how much cheaper they could get the same product.

Thanks for your advice. At work I do tech support so I create an AIM bot that gave people quick answers to the most frequently asked questions. It was menu based and everyone in the company loves the bot, I also included a company directory , we have over 200 employees and remembering everyone's extension or even email addresses was difficult so I built a company directory using AIM.
thank you for all the ideas you are giving me.

I notice that my server is always busy answering to real human requests, I would say my bots get a lot of daily traffic from mostly teenagers and other people who are bored at their offices or home. I don't even advertise them that much they get around through word of mouth.
I am wondering how can I turn this into something that can help me make some cash.
I though about making bots for companies, I think there is a market for something like this. Any ideas on how I can take my side project to the next level ?
Thanks everyone
