You Need My Guy: How a DryWall Mishap Sparked a Social Hiring Site

You Need My Guy is a social hiring site that aims to help users tap into their multiple social networks when searching for new business partners, leveraging word of mouth by organizing it in a platform. The site was founded after its creator, Joe, received investment and saw the potential for a platform that allows service providers to promote their businesses on various social networks while also utilizing connections to make new deals. The platform has already seen success with one beta tester landing a contract based on a Facebook connection within the first week of launch. To grow, the site is building its team, working on security features, and partnering with chambers of commerce to onboard member communities.
