If you've ever needed someone to do some handy work around your house, or if you work in a field where you bid on jobs, here's a website you can appreciate. www.LocalDemand.com is a site where you can post projects you need done or bid on jobs to do the work for others. I really can appreciate this site because hubby works in construction, and a lot of his side jobs are "bid jobs". If you have no experience with this, it means he has to bid on a specific job, and the lowest bidder normally wins. Hubby loves to work, so he's always looking for extra work to do on the weekends, and now I can introduce him to this site.
Basically the site is set up like the Ebay of the home improvement world. For example, if you need someone to install hardwood flooring in your home you post your job and others will bid on it. People who are experienced in hardwood flooring installation will bid on your job, and you get to choose who will do the install. You don't have to stick to one price quote. You get the opportunity to choose from multiple bids to get the best price and quality work.
I'll definitely be checking this site more often. I don't see anything in my area currently, but I'm going to set up automatic keyword emails to inform me when something that hubby might be interested in is available in the areas he works.
