I had a thought the other day about a website to rate a customer experience. A way for us home service professionals to rate an experience with a client and either warn others about a bad client or leave praise for them. A customer should not have to deal with an unprofessional, dishonest, sloppy service provider. And a professional should not have to deal with a rude, aggressive or shady homeowner. Also, knowing you are going to walk into a welcoming home with a great client, can make that drive in to work very pleasant. Why should a homeowner be allowed to not pay us? Or talk down to us and try to walk all over us? Just as a homeowner should not be have to pay for something from a "professional" who takes their money and disappears? It's like dealing with a child, you wanna act up and be rude? You aren't going to get what you want acting like that. Reviews, reviews, reviews...I hear that all day about how important they are to a business. Just as important to a business owner would be getting paid for your work, not being harassed, safe working conditions and have a nonconfrontational day at work. I am not sure if there would be legal considerations to this as we have been hired by them to complete the work, but I have had a few clients that I would love to warn others to stay away from. I wonder what others think about this idea.Did you learn more about business from school or from experience?

From weekend side hustle to full-time: what would you start with?
Hey everyone We’re in NJ and exploring starting a weekend home service business that could eventually replace full-time income. My husband comes from road service and gas station inventory work—very hands-on, problem-solving, and customer-facing. The plan is to start on weekends, replace overtime first, and grow from there. For those who’ve done it: - What service did you start with on weekends? - What would you do differently if you were starting again? - Any service you wish you hadn’t tried? Would love to hear real stories and lessons learned.
