Right.
Thanks for having me, Nathan.
Yes, my name is Tariq.
My company is Chore Relief and we like to say your home is our business.
Sure.
So despite the fact that the companies like Andrews List, Home Advisors, and TaskRabbit, 90% of people say use word of mouth to find help.
And that's mainly because of the high service fee, the bidding fee, the revenue sharing fee, as well as the lack of transparency and no negotiation between the client and the contractors, and among more issues.
So True Relief, what it does is connect consumers with the service providers through an innovative strategy that allows the customers to name their own price while empowering the service provider with a business management tool.
This strategy combines the economic growth of the community and economic growth due to two of the sustainable approaches.
So yeah, so most of our people that come to our platform, they go through a vetting process.
We make sure that they have identity verification, no criminal records whatsoever before they can actually start receiving jobs.
Now let me tell you something different about what's beneficial for us, for contractors to join our platform rather than the rest.
Right, so what we do now is that we give the opportunity for immediately as you post a job, which takes anywhere from 45 to 60 seconds, instantly in front of the hand of contractors in the area.
Now, these contractors have two choices.
They can accept it as a face value or submit a counter offer.
Because sometimes customers, they come in with a low ball offering.
We want to make sure that the actual, it's fair for both clients and the contractors.
But with a click of a button down, the customer will get a list of all the contractors.
They can compare the rates.
They can read reviews about each individual contractors.
