GROUP 9 – POP!
Description of Product/ Service/ Innovation:
PoP! aims at addressing the social stigma of freelancing jobs, by providing a platform to make such work financially and socially lucrative. The platform allows users to offer skilled services and share their passions with the community, by helping them
- Understand their market and price their services appropriately, by providing cross-market comparison with peers offering similar services,
- Find clients that they are comfortable working with, by means of detailed credit reviews
- Find time to fit freelance work into their busy schedules, with API integration,
- Offer lessons to teach their skills to interested peers, and
- Build a community of like-minded freelancers, where passions may be exchanged and shared.
Clients in need of these services can easily use PoP! to find freelancers that match their preferences. A fair remuneration can be negotiated, and users also have the option of receiving PoP! Currency which they can use to purchase other services from the application.
By making the process of freelancing more convenient, PoP! makes freelancing more accessible to a wider community – many of whom may genuinely want to share their passions, but are daunted by the many seemingly surmountable challenges of freelancing.
