About Find Local Help | Local Jobs & Service Providers
Turnkey Canadian marketplace connecting customers with local service providers.
Overview FindLocalHelp.ca is a fully developed, mobile-friendly Canadian marketplace designed to connect customers with independent local service providers. Customers can post service requests for free, receive competitive quotes, select providers and manage their bookings through the platform. Service providers can register, create business profiles, discover available jobs and submit quotes. The platform is built to monetize completed transactions through a 20% marketplace commission, with providers retaining 80% of the pre-tax service amount. Initially focused on Nova Scotia, the platform has been designed for expansion across Canada.

Current Business Stage FindLocalHelp.ca is an early-stage marketplace with limited operating history. The primary value being offered is the developed software, existing functionality, domain, branding and opportunity to continue growing the business. This is best suited to a buyer seeking a ready-built marketplace rather than an established business with predictable monthly earnings. What's Included in the Sale FindLocalHelp.ca domain name Complete website source code Existing platform design and branding assets Customer and provider functionality Administrative dashboard Database structure and application configuration Notification and payment integrations Available technical and deployment documentation Assistance with transferring and setting up the platform under the buyer's own accounts Any existing user data would be handled according to applicable privacy requirements. Third-party services and accounts may require buyer-owned subscriptions and credentials. Reason for Selling I manage other business ventures and would prefer to see FindLocalHelp.ca developed further by someone who has the time and resources to actively market and scale the platform. The website has already undergone substantial development. A new owner can focus on growing its customer and provider base rather than building the technology from scratch. Ideal Buyer A digital entrepreneur, marketing agency, local-service company, developer or investor interested in acquiring a functioning two-sided marketplace with an established brand and Canadian expansion potential. Serious inquiries are welcome. Additional platform details and a demonstration can be provided to qualified buyers.
