A New Website That Plans to Unite the Service Industry with Ecommerce

Hireahelper.com unites amateurs with local do-it-your-selfers through a convenient online search for affordable service. Services range from moving and lawn help to cleaning and general day labor help.

Customers search by zip code to find local helpers, read reviews of past employment, offer a job to the right candidate and negotiate payment all online. Customers pay the selected helper by credit card and Hire A Helper holds the funds until the job is completed. When the helper completes the job, they are given an authorization code and they receive their payment via direct deposit.

In what started as an attempt to help college students find one-time or occasional jobs to earn extra money while going to school, Hire A Helper has emerged as part of the growing wave of web based communities that combine Ecommerce and the service industry.

In the hopes of becoming the Amazon of the service industry the company plans to extend the variety of services offered through the site. Small businesses and individuals that cannot afford the infrastructure of sales online have the ability to use Hire A Helper to advertise their services and gain customers.

It is easy to buy the cleaning supplies, lawn mower, tool set or moving boxes online, but now HireAHelper.com allows individuals to buy the house cleaner, the gardener, the fence builder or the mover to make everyday chores easier and less expensive.
