Unique products and features200+ standardized services. We have standardized businessprocesses of 200+ most common and popular services and for each of the services we developed a simple ordering / marketing process. Each service is ordered simply through several clicks for the customer. Standardization of the ser-vices order parameters allows for Instant Offers, where the platform calculates and offers service packages to the client on behalf of the provider. Standardization allows for the simple ordering pro-cess on the mobile and touch platforms.

Instant Offer. The system compares subscriptions with incoming client requests for matching parame-ters. The system will calculate the price for an offer and send it to the client. In this case, the providers’ physical presence is not required. The offer will be sent automatically and instantly.

Hot Deal – It is a ready to use standard offer

Providers promo Page – It is a special promo page with a short direct link for the provider

Page 4: WH pres partn

Business ModelServices E-Marketplace-AuctionWe firmly believe that over time, the B2C service market will develop in the same way as the e-product market. That is why our goal is to devel-op a customer-centric platform that will change the buying habits at the e-service market in the long run:

We free our clients from the work involved in ordering: The client merely states which service he or she would like and the service providers then contact the client

Unified and easy processes: From ordering to reviewing – in doing so we expect to win client loyalty

In the long term, the platform should become a central shopping location for all sorts of services

We envision our solution in the form of an e-marketplace, where compa-nies and individuals can offer their services. The buyer can search both by category and provider for the required service, as well as stating a request and receiving offers from the service providers.

The service market is currently still influenced by the old paradigm, where the service providers and not the clients are put in the middle.

Business ModelThe goal of our project is to provide a B2C online trading platform for various services on the Internet.

Buyers and sellers of services are brought together in the following manner:

buyers are permitted to list (put into the system) the services they want to buy

sellers can view buyers requests and make specific offers to provide the requested service, or preset the instant offers

buyers can view all offers made by sellers and buy a specific offer

throughout the buying and delivery process buyers and sellers communicate using the platform

service delivery from seller to buyer is monitored by the platform

buyers can list service providers and contact them directly with a request

Our project streamlines and globalizes the traditional process of service delivery, which is normally restricted to local businesses. We also change the buyer’s experience, who traditionally have to find, compare and contact service providers personally. We shift the focus of attention to the buyer (customer, service consumer) by changing the direction of the whole process: the service sellers will now be able to find, contact and make offers to interested customers. This facilitates easy and transparent service buying process for customers and enables very effective customer acquisition for service sellers.

Using the platform for buying services is free of charge,but the service sellers are charged following kinds of fees:

Transaction fees (3,99% + $1,99)

Sales Ads – “Hot Deals”

Service Ads – Related Services
