05.01.2022 Howdy folks, If you're in the trade, you've probably come across one or more of the seemingly increasing number of 'find-a-tradie' websites, like Service Seeking, Service Central, hipages, OneFlare, Airtasker, etc. From what we can see, they have divided opinion among small business operators, so we want to find out about your experiences using these sites. Have you used one? What was good about it? What went wrong? Would you recommend using them? If you were successful, what... did you do differently to your competitors? If you have a story to tell, we'd love to hear it. Simply send us a PM.
