I’m still actively developing offline and on a temporary domain and using screenshare demos and online surveys to get feedback.

Developing a new approach to the online local business directory portals where we start with the user and their end goal to then suggest businesses and bundle deals

instead of assuming they’ll start with location, category or keywords (plumber, London) and then have to filter based on price and ratings.

The platform encourages local business to cross-promote, cross/upsell and offer bundles with non-competing business.

An example; user wants their pool and garden cleaned and trimmed.

Instead of searching for two businesses and starting two conversations, and payments, the gardener and pool cleaner can come together to offer a Summer clean up.

One click. One payment. Two services. Service is delivered, and we pay out minus a small commission.

It’s more a multivendor e-commerce marketplace focused on local business and cooperation than a listings site.

And already partnered with a B2B2C messaging app that coordinates business and customers via email/SMS - so it doesn’t fall apart once the deal is sold.

I’ll have something to share soon.
