Also people who have skills that would be best for such platform in marketing terms (stuff really in high demand) are actually front loaded with work so they don’t have need for yet another platform.

My friend thought about something similar in our country - but I told him first he would have to have good plumbers/mechanics available and available exclusively so that if you hire via that page it is actually useful for the customer.

What I have seen was that my insurance has „repair man” service as bonus and when I called them I had someone fixing my stuff in 2 days. Where if I was calling around every professional was busy and could get to me in like a month.

If you have low demand skills like „making web pages” you are not getting traction with such site and you have to burn investors money to keep in demand pros on bench and most likely it will be years to become profitable.

Hope someone find it interesting as it was a lot of writing :)
