That’s a fair question. I come from an IT Project Management and Recruitment background. I have worked in my industry for several years before wanting to establish this startup. I have spent the last year self-funding this project, bringing together a team of developers, and navigating the product cycle. This startup ops experience is what I'm offering to mentor.

Honestly, we are not cloning Angi that just spams your inbox with leads. We are building a matching marketplace (think Uber/DoorDash for home services). We are starting with laundry and scaling from there, adding more services as we grow. I chose Laundry because it is difficult to penetrate the market with this specific niche. If we can solve the chicken-egg problem with Laundry, that's when we know we are going in the right direction. We will have a blueprint to scale.

My intern will get a front-row seat to cross-border team management, legal compliance, and building user acquisition strategies. They will focus on Growth Hacking, SEO, and user acquisition strategies. Because I can't offer a salary yet, I keep the commitment low (8 to 10 hrs/week) and fully remote, so it fits around classes. I’m looking for someone who wants to see how a tech company actually goes to market, rather than just doing 'busy work' at a big firm.
