Starting your own home visits business
Why do home visits?
In a post-COVID world, people are more concerned about being around large groups in public, leading to lower footfalls in an already dying highstreet. Add the likes of Amazon taking people away from town centres, and those businesses that benefitted from being located around shops are now seeing much tougher trading conditions. It doesn't help that many landlords are offsetting empty stores in their portfolio with higher rents for everyone else, and council piling extra pressure with high business rates.
Imagine if you could apply your skills when you want, where you want, meeting people in the relaxed setting of their own homes? FizzyFly aims to join those clients interested in having services provided in their homes to those experts in their fields who can provide them.
What services can I provide?
If it can be provided as a service to a client in their own home at a fixed price and for a fixed time slot, you can post your service offering on here for free! Some exampes of services you can provide are:
- Car cleaning
- Bicycle maintenance
- Massage
- Hairdressing
- Pedicures and manicures
- Dog grooming
- Private tuition
- Any many more - if we don't have it listed, let us know and we'll add it!
Why FizzyFly?
There are a few services out there offering services in specific areas or for only specific industries, which means you don't get to economies of scale with a large client base. We aim to be a one-stop shop for all home visits across all industries - the name people think of and go to by default.For products you think of Amazon, for food deliveries you think of Deliveroo, and for hom services you'll soon think of FizzyFly!
What's the catch?
We're a small business trying to help home businesses succeed by filling a void. You add your business and its services here for free, we allow potential clients to find you if their area is in your catchement area for the day they're trying to book, and we just take a 10% admin fee to cover the running and advertising of the site. That's all there is to it! We aim to take a more community-oriented approach than a capitalistic one, helping you find clients, and clients find you, as easily as possible.
