On-Demand Beauty Professional & Referral-baserad marknadsplats
Client’s Story
A startup approached me with a vision to revolutionize the beauty industry by creating a unique referral-based marketplace. The client has several challenges
Fragmented Market: Beauty professionals were scattered across various platforms, making it difficult for customers to find and compare services.
Lack of Referral System: There was no structured way for customers and professionals to benefit from referrals
Limited E-commerce Integration: Beauty professionals couldn’t easily sell both services and products in one place.
Complex Payment Requirements: The need for a split payment system to manage commissions between service providers, customers, and business owners
Technology Uncertainty: The client was unsure about the best technology stack to use for a scalable, multi-user platform
These challenges were costing the beauty industry potential revenue and growth opportunities, while customers struggled to find and book services efficiently
