How do you plan on getting professionals on your platform, I feel you'll have issues there


Great question! We're early, but so far, we're adding pros mostly through referrals and cold calls.

Our pitch is rather than charge for leads, we directly give our pros jobs, and deal with all customer acquisition, customer service and payment. That means they can spend 0% of their time on sales & job scoping, and only need to accept the jobs when they can fit them into their schedule. So far it seems to be resonating, but it's early.


What do you charge them?


We pay them to complete jobs rather than charging them money to be on the our service. We monetize through a marketplace take rate.
