How can I repurpose this website to address a new market? (justbooked.com)

We built https://justbooked.com/ to provide office catering and food to teams at companies as an empoloyee perk. Pre-pandemic/pre-remote and hybrid workforce we did really well.

However now that the market has gotten smaller due to hybrid and remote workforces it's not as profitable a space.

With that being said, we spent a lot of time and money developing this awesome platform that allows customers to order from vendors and have whatever they ordered delivered at a set date/time.

Any ideas on how we can repurpose this technology and brand? Any other markets or opportunities that this will work for?

If you had this codebase what would you do with it to make it successful?

Thanks!

I haven’t visited the site, but the outcome you describe (“helping businesses provide food perks to employees”) isn’t limited to office spaces. You could also help get food to employees at their home. Employees could just get food delivered through participating delivery partners.

Needless to say, it would be trivial for UberEats and others to simply sherlock that as a corporate offering.
