Connecting Consumers With Service Providers
How It Works
ServiceForMe.com avoids the flaws of Craig's List, yellow pages, and other websites...
There is a significant problem inherent in Craig's List, yellow pages, and any similar websites. A consumer who is trying
to find a service provider must go through a tedious manual process of evaluating postings in order to select the best
candidates. A short list containing the best candidates is not assured unless the consumer evaluates all the postings
under a very broad classification. The problem is worsened by having very little information to evaluate. The problem
becomes more severe as these websites grow in size (number of postings).
ServiceForMe.com addresses the problem very effectively. The website itself evaluates the postings by comparing
consumer requirements to provider capabilities. A short list containing the best candidates is produced automatically.
The quality of the candidates on the short list gradually increases as the website grows in size (number of providers).
 
ServiceForMe.com
produces a list of the best service providers for your needs:
 
How does ServiceForMe.com compare to other website formats?  How is it different?
ServiceForMe.com functions much like a typical yellow pages website, but it differs in three important ways:
higher quality matching by ServiceForMe.com, strictly based on consumer requirements and provider capabilities
richer user content on ServiceForMe.com, consumers and providers can share relevant pictures/documents online
more user interaction via ServiceForMe.com, consumers and providers may communicate while privacy is protected
ServiceForMe.com matching is based on meaningful criteria. A yellow pages website contains minimal information to distinguish one business from another, so choices might be made based on which ones paid the most for their listings.
ServiceForMe.com supports several forms of descriptive information. Consumers can fully explain their projects with words and pictures/documents. Providers can promote their skills and experience with words and pictures/documents.
ServiceForMe.com gives consumers various ways to contact providers. Providers can ask questions about consumer project details. Consumers can respond to providers through the website without revealing their personal information.
Some consumers try to find help using classified advertising websites, such as Craig's List. Those websites have most
of the shortcomings of yellow pages websites, plus even more. A match between consumer and provider requires both
parties to be actively seeking a connection at the same time because an entry tends to become less effective over time
as newer entries push it further down on the list. An entry may eventually expire and get automatically removed, which
means it must be periodically recreated by the provider. ServiceForMe.com does not have these shortcomings!
ServiceForMe.com has several characteristics of an auction website, such as eBay. ServiceForMe.com does not use
an auction format, but the basic concept of connecting buyers and sellers is very similar.

ServiceForMe.com allows individuals to become providers selling services.
An auction website gives merchants a place to present their products.
ServiceForMe.com gives providers a place to promote their services.
An auction website gives buyers a convenient place to find a wide range of products.
ServiceForMe.com gives consumers a convenient place to find hundreds of services.
An auction website counts on buyers being active participants in a bidding process.
ServiceForMe.com is designed for consumers actively looking for local providers.
An auction website typically does not get involved in buyer/seller transactions.
ServiceForMe.com does not get involved in consumer/provider transactions.
