I think there is definitely a market for OneLocal[0]. I've been renovating my house lately and dealing with trades is a mess. I had a few very reputable AC guys come in and quote on installing a unit. After they left there was no follow up whatsoever... no email, no text, no call, not even automated stuff. If OneLocal could solve that problem they could probably help SMBs convert more customers.

I did some work for a company doing this for home improvement contractors back...geez, it must have been a decade ago. The problem is they don't respond to middlemen like this any more than they do end customers. It's a lot of work to manage them, even just on the customer relationship side of their business.
