Bid on Business Eliminates Monthly Membership Fees for Small Businesses

Grand Rapids, MI, April 21, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Bid on Business, LLP., a reverse auction website, announced today a unique new service for small businesses. Through their global online marketplace they match people that need a particular service with professionals that provide those services.

The way it works:
A buyer (consumer or business) will post their service project in the marketplace and then a service professional will bid on that project.

As a service professional you are able to create a portfolio, which can include a logo, services, credentials, education, employment, buy it now, references and licenses. Service Professionals are offered three subscription plans, each with increasing levels of service options. As an ongoing effort to please their customers they are offering free membership under all three service levels.

Buyers have three options of purchasing services:
1. Posting a project and waiting for qualified service providers to bid on it.
2. Purchasing services directly from the service provider through a "Buy Now" option. Buyers are able to choose the service they want and purchase it right then.
3. Searching through a list of service providers and requesting that they bid on their posted project.

"More experienced professional can sign-up and bid on qualified projects as a result of us eliminating our membership fees. We believe for service providers our website will increase marketing exposure, increase sales through follow-up work and reduce marketing and service costs. For buyers it's a great way to get qualified professionals to complete projects and decrease service costs." said Kristy Robinson, vice-president of Bid on Business, LLP
