With a world of information at their fingertips, consumers only naturally turn to the internet to research and choose services. People and businesses who offer the services are well aware of it, so everyone from your local plumber to the most exclusive dentist in town will have an online presence.
However, having too many options can make the digital marketplace feel like a labyrinth. A trustworthy guide to lead people straight to reliable services, saving them from the maze of uncertainty, can be invaluable to the user.
Recognizing this need, Prince Financial Group is set to unveil an innovative new platform - PickAPro. Conceived with the idea of promoting trust, credibility, and ease of access, PickAPro aims to revolutionize finding and hiring professionals online.
Driven by the vision to create an online marketplace that caters to various professional services, PickAPro stands out as an ambitious project. It promises to provide an easy-to-use platform where users can search for and connect with professionals in a vast array of fields.
"PickAPro is one of our flagship projects, which aims to become a marketplace for a wide range of services," says Alec Dierna, a co-founder of the Prince Financial Group. "Whether you need website development, landscaping or require the expertise of an injury accident attorney, PickAPro will be the go-to platform."
The target audience for PickAPro is quite diverse, owing to the broad range of services it aims to offer. The initial focus, however, will be on attorneys based in Florida. Once a strong local presence is established, the plan is to expand the scope nationally, eventually featuring doctors, landscapers, and other service providers.
Trust and credibility are the pillars differentiating a reliable platform from others. Prince Financial Group recognizes this and emphasizes establishing these factors for PickAPro. This is achieved by adhering to a meticulous vetting process for professionals listed on the platform, thus reassuring users of the credibility of the services they engage with.
Moreover, the company understands the necessity of updating and refining its verification processes as the platform grows and evolves. This forward-thinking approach ensures that PickAPro will initiate with a strong foundation of trust and credibility and continue to bolster these crucial aspects as it scales up and diversifies its offerings.
When it comes to ensuring trust and credibility, the verification process plays a pivotal role. In the case of PickAPro, professionals wishing to be listed on the platform are subjected to a rigorous verification procedure.
"Since we haven't launched the website yet, we prioritize verifying information. We collect and upload licenses and other necessary credentials into our database," says Dierna. "When attorneys join, for example, we require their bar numbers, which can be checked on a specific website. This allows us to see if any disciplinary actions or negative reviews have been associated with their bar numbers."
Integral to the verification process is PickAPro's due diligence team. This team conducts thorough background checks and online research, further ensuring that the professionals listed meet the platform's stringent standards. In addition, they stay vigilant for any signs of irregularities or concerns that might impact the reliability of the professionals.
While similar platforms such as Yelp and Thumbtack currently exist in the marketplace, PickAPro aims to set itself apart with its rigorous verification process and commitment to professionalism. Unlike some platforms that allow any service provider to be listed, PickAPro prioritizes quality over quantity, ensuring that only the best and most credible professionals are featured.
