Good post,OP!

BTW If you are looking to start a service marketplace ASAP, here's a service I discovered and inquired about but never got started with it due to me dropping the idea:-

Also their fees is worth it for the advantage of launching any idea without development..

(PS My idea was to create a clone of a US based service marketplace for advice from local residents but I didn't pursue it quite seriously and dropped it in the end )

Thanks for sharing! Super interesting idea. From what i have read, marketplaces are awesome once they get going, but can have a cold start problem since it typically requires you to find 2 sets up customers (sellers and buyers).
