In addition to the website comes the new patented[1] PickAQuote.com.au iPhone App. Unique to the company and not used by any services businesses internationally, this is where clever technology allows the customer to visually display the job that needs fixing, whether it’s a new window pane, a burst pipe, or a paint job. The PickAQuote.com.au iPhone App will precisely measure the area giving service providers a quick and easy snapshot of the job requirements and eliminating time and hassle.

The introduction of the smart phone technology has empowered customers to provide descriptive visual information to businesses and assist them with a better understanding of the job request, enabling the business in turn to provide a more accurate quote.

This improves response time for customers and multitasking capabilities for businesses.

Those businesses will review the job and if they’re interested, start bidding for the work!

Once bidding is complete, the customer picks the best provider based on their quote, availability, experience and skills, feedback from previous jobs and the level of service offered. Ensuring superior convenience, there’s no obligation to choose and the customer can keep the bidding going for as long as they like.

There are currently thousands of service providers registered on the site including accounting, building, catering, computers, legal services, pest and weed control and renovations to name a few. From painting a front fence to removing a tree to a complete bathroom renovation – no job is too small or too large for Pick-A-Quote.

Customers are encouraged to leave feedback on the service provider once the job is completed, contributing to the online reputation of that provider and encouraging a high level of service each and every time!

PickAQuote.com.au was started by two entrepreneurs from Sydney; Marcus Lim, 26 and Adam Dong, 24, whose passion for web development and vision for transforming the Australian service industry market has led them to launch PickAQuote.com.au in November 2010. The pair met at university and combined their expertise in technology and management consulting to launch the business.
