A freelancer subscription idea..
Hey guys.
so, i woke up with this idea.
I see a lot of websites for freelancers to get a quickly job..
upwork
peopleperhour
freelancer
guru
99freelas (BR)
workana (BR)
...
So, i was thinking. if i as a freelancer could see those jobs on a single platform
or i could watch for some keywords like "nodejs", "c++" and get those jobs in my email box. maybe real time (what would put me in advantage) or maybe a daily diggest.
would you use something like this? do you known a service like this?
let me know, let your words flow.. thx
Hey @1pedro on the face of it, this seems like a really great opportunity. I haven't come across a tool that aggregates new jobs on multiple jobs boards and sends them to your inbox. (that said I haven't really looked either).
My suggestion would be to reach out to freelancers (dribbble, upwork, LinkedIn, Twitter etc can be great resources to find them) and dig into how they currently find new work. Are they actively looking at multiple jobs boards? How often do they look? Is this a pain for them right now? Have they looked at alternatives, if so what did they find, if not, why not?
By digging into all this, you'll get a clearer picture of the opportunity to provide value here. Plus you'll figure out how to reach your target audience along the way, which will be really valuable when you start marketing your tool :)
Hope this helps!
thank you so much!
I think this is somewhat similar to what http://letsworkshop.com/ does, but you're thinking directly to individual contributors vs. theirs is targeted at agencies? I haven't used them, just came across them from https://www.indiehackers.com/@Vinrob/240be4b578. Competition is usually good validation! Good luck :D
