Question 1

Hello team why did your team take such a large loss?

Accepted Answer

Hi, Raymond! The first year was very critical as we needed to build the App from the ground up. Even after we launched, we had to make major changes to adjust to our user’s needs. Linkio is VERY open (you can post anything) and we needed to create enough safeguards to make sure it was a friendly and an effective experience. All that is behind us now and we not only have a better understanding of our business and our users, but a stronger product as well. We are now ready to begin expandi...

Question 2

Hi, Leonardo. I'm sorry, but I don't see any questions from you. Would you care resubmitting it? Sorry for the inconvenience :(

Question 3

That's odd, it's the 1st question in this section but here's a copy: How are you different from Task Rabbit or Thumbtack? They both allow free lancers and companies to bid their services. -How do you prevent free lancers from taking jobs they believe they can do or just need t...

Hi, Leonardo. Thank you for reposting! The main difference between Linkio and those platforms is how open we are.

We also contact the clients and the providers when the jobs are taking longer than usual to complete. If no answer, we contact the local authorities and the emergency contact on file. 2. Great question. We created a section specifically for that called “Ask a question”. Here, the providers can ask speci...

Question 5

Thanks for your answers but I still would like to know what revenue goals you have in mind for the next 5 years, considering all the new features still to come. I wanna have an idea of what kind of growth you wish to achieve year by year and that will help me make a decision. ...

You’re welcome, Lee. It’s obviously hard to have a five year forecast this early, but my goal is to achieve exponential growth over the next five years. Linkio supports pretty much every service industry (including healthcare at some point) and the upcoming features will change the way companies operate and the way most people work in general (let’s just say that soon companies will had virtually unlimited employees). I wish I could share more, but let’s take one step at time. We raised over ...
