Why and How I came up with Bidbord.
I have worked in the Interior Design Industry for many years. With in those 6 years the questions I always got asked from clients “who do you recommend and how much would they charge for my job?” and from contractors “Do you know anyone that needs work done?”. I decided to take this idea and expand it, it can not be the only industry that is experiencing this. Why not have one location for both clients and business to go and find each other.
I realize there are many websites that allow clients to find a business that will have reviews. However you will need to take down the information, call or email them and who knows if they will ever get back you! Why not let the businesses come to you and compete to win your job? We all want the best price for something we need done and of course done correctly and on time. Again going back to these other review and business listing sites, how do you know what one will give you the best price for high quality work? With Bidbord you can get all of this at one location, business reviews and auction style bidding so you get the best price for a task you need completed.
On the flip side going back to the questions the contractors where asking. They are always constantly looking for new work, and it gets very time consuming and costly to drive from place to place to quote. Why not have clients that are all ready to buy right now all on one site together organized by the type of tasks needed completed. This will help save time and money running around quoting 10 jobs and getting only 1. Offering the ability to include reviews of your business and even pictures of past jobs completed with help eliminate some bought in the eyes of the client.
Now comes the question of “how do I know their are going to complete the job and not just take my money and run?” business also worry “how do I know I’m not going to complete the job and never get paid?”. Bidbord has also come up with a solution for this age old question as well. Clients are required to pay for the entire job in advance, now don’t faint! You will be passing the money along to Bidbord not the business, we will hold this money until the task is completed. This will prove to the businesses that clients are doing dealings with that the money is there and available. This will also help insure the task will actually be completed by the business because they are not able to receive the money until the job is actually complete.
I have taken a step back and instead of just dealing with the questions as they come, why not provide something to eliminate them to begin with. Bidbord has provided a solution that every person and business will come across in their life time over and over again. Stick with us and we will provide clients with quality work at great prices. For businesses we provide a new way to advertise and find quality leads that will pay.
