I am looking for a Freelance Chemist to help me develop a new soft
drink.  I will need this person for about 2 hours for an initial
consultation.  I am looking for someone to do this on a freelance
business.

Where can I find such a person willing to help me out?

I have found several freelance sites on the internet but they don't
have chemists.

Please provide three websites that can likely help or the names of
three chemists who are willing to do freelance work.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Rather than looking for a chemist online, I would suggest you call a
university near you and speak to the head of the chemistry department.
 He/she would likely be able to recommend someone.
Good luck,

InnoCentive is an online portal for solving scientific questions. 
Confidentiality and intellectual property are nicely handled.  They
have access to more than 20,000 scientists world wide, the largest
group of which are chemists.  The "problem" is posted with a
predetermined "award" level (kind of like Google Answers).  Scientists
compete (privately and unknown to one another) to solve the problem. 
The company listing the problem only pays for the best solution. 
InnoCentive works mostly with large compmanies (e.g., Dow Chemical Eli
Lilly, Procter & Gamble, Syngenta), but they are starting to work with
smaller companies.  Look at their website (www.innocentive.com) for
more information.  Good luck.

The American Chemical Society has a webpage at www.acs.org.  You
should be able to find links to your local chapter there, and the
chapter officials can refer you to qualified chemists near you.  ACS
also maintains a database for those seeking jobs in chemistry
(including independent consultants), although you may need to be an
ACS member to access that part of their site.
Try also:  www.Chemconsultants.org   for listings of experienced
consultants.
