Like having a good chat/laugh with friends.
Nowadays it's all down to the communication and it's why I learn languages at the first place, being able to communicate and having fun learning from each other.
Unfortunately is not always the case in France, where we expect people to speak French as it should be, hopefully with more people travelling and having experiences abroad we will be more open when foreigners try to speak French.
Doing more competitive research would a good path to start with and I have to say your advices/thoughts are really appreciated.
My first thought was to delay the payment till it passed the second review (max 5persons).
However I think your suggestion will get more tractions, the only downside is how to keep track on the applicant whether or not he got a job/interview. But who says it will be easy :).
I agree petervandijck's question has to be asked and getting the answers and validating the hypotheses have to be done. As a start I should go to find "fresh-out-of-uni" as you've called them to see if they can get out some money from their pockets. As the summer break is close, should be a good time to run the experience.
And to answer your question, most (ones I came across) of proofing services are done by software and the result is not good enough to have a confidence to send my CV to apply for job, my idea would use human to do so. This is why I think having some sort of reward will good so people can commit to it.
Edit: Just to let you know I am in the same case then you (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7692320).
But quick question, if I want the content and the video/photo under the same bookmark link. Will it not be as getpocket?.
If you don't mind. I will be more interested on the app that can track the update of the content or the comments or even the product price. But I don't know either if it's good idea.
Good luck.
So when customer submits a request salons respond with offers matching the criteria. But booking can be must have feature.
Cheers.
I chose the hairdressing domain because many women around me always speak about beauty and hair style. But from your update maybe I should consider other domains and see if they fit better the concept.
Again a big thanks.
Maybe I have to review the strategy of the idea and test some models to find the one I should follow.
Thanks for your return and time.
If you don't mind I will try to answer you.
For Q1. because I will not have a lot of customers (but if I got them I will be more than happy) at the beginning so the hairdressers can handle making offers. Of course I will provide them a system to assist and help them. And because it will be not in real time (at least not at the beginning) so they have a time to do it. And when customers grow I will provide a new way to make offers, by having a pricing calendar. So they can put price by shift time (ex: 9-10 at 15$, 10-11 at 18$...) in advance and update it occasionally.
For Q2: I hope to make it simple. One request to receive differents offers from differents hairdressers matching the request and choose one. But for the question online I did not have a think about it yet. Thanks for it.
For Q3: I agree and disagree with you. But hairdressers are going to make offers only for customers that are looking for. But let's say if I add the real time offers. So this gives the ability to the hairdresser to target only people close to him in real time to fulfill the empty time. But real time will be not the first step but who knows.
For Q4: for anyone looking for good offer matching his avaibility. (Or for regular customers provide booking feature and adding the reward. However I have to review my idea for this. Good point to warn me about the relationship customer-hairdress).
I came up with this idea cause there is many deals in the web but they do not match always my need at that time. But with my idea I wanted to move the search and comparison to the software and local shops. So I have to make one request and got (hope) offers fitting my need.
And again thanks for your feedback.
What I want to achieve is to be able to book haircut for my suitable time and at the good price in my local area.
But I agree I have to deal with hairdressers first. But I wanted to know if people want it.
Thanks.
