While the conventional ones emphasize on custom development, the modern day world does not require marketplaces to be built from scratch. Instead, entrepreneurs can rely on readymade software solutions that do the job without coding. The only exception to this scenario is when you require your marketplace to be developed on a very specific technology or programming language, and cannot find any readymade software powered by it. In this case, the traditional bespoke development approach remains your only option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transitioning to the practical aspects of establishing your handyman services marketplace, this part of the article breaks down the marketplace strategy into three parts; identifying the feature set, technology and brand building.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Required Feature Set on a Handyman Marketplace<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your handyman marketplace should have multi-vendor management features along with high scalability to simplify the overall experience for customers and service providers. These features can include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>User Profile Management: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help you manage all service providers and customers that register on your marketplace. You can also view their order history, payments and mandate admin approval for service provider\/handyman registration.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Task Management: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Important to keep track of all tasks uploaded and completed on your marketplace. You should be able to create task lists, task categories and even allow handymen to mark suspicious tasks as inappropriate tasks.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Payment Management:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These include the option to set up your payment gateway, options and currency. In addition, you can also automate different types of taxes on every transaction.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Background Verification:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Establishing trust is important on a handyman marketplace. It helps in ensuring the safety and security of every customer. For this reason, it is important to have a background verification system on your handyman marketplace. In case, if admin approval for registering service providers is disabled, you can display a verification badge on the profile of all verified service providers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>eWallet: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">eWallet system on your handyman marketplace will ensure a healthy cash flow. It can allow your customers to upload advanced funds so that you can ensure 100% timely payments to all service providers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Task Posting: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The option to let customers upload and manage different types of tasks from the admin uploaded task categories.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Bidding Management: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To complement task posting, service providers should be provided with the option to send proposals and place bids. The business owner can set a minimum bidding amount to maintain fair competition and earnings.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Service Provider Portfolio: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allow service providers to create detailed profiles and showcase their previous works. This portfolio will assist customers in making a data-driven decision for their requirements.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Direct Hiring: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Along with task posting, let customers browse service provider profiles and directly hire them without bidding.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>In-Built Messenger: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Required to simplify interaction between customers and service providers. You can also integrate a messaging app on your marketplace to provide customer support.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Content Management: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For managing the web pages and blog sections on your marketplace, you need a content management system. It will help you create and manage all types of landing pages, navigation menu, homepage slider and even header and footer section.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Commission Management: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set and charge your own commission rate on every service that is booked on your marketplace.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Notifications and Alerts: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The option to receive and send notifications and alerts for order placements, status updates, new sign ups, customer queries, etc. Also these settings should allow you to send templated welcome and status update emails to customers as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Discount Management: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Required to create multiple types of discounts, such as coupon based discounts, flat rate discounts, percentage discounts, reward points discounts, etc. on your marketplace.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Selecting a Software Technology<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we said above, using a readymade software is a very efficient method to launch your handyman business. However, there are also several readymade software available in the market including both SaaS and perpetually licensed software, which makes it difficult to find the ideal software.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Introducing Yo!Gigs<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are looking for a solution that is highly cost effective in the long run, then you can opt for Yo!Gigs handyman software.
