Service Auctions

Service or craftsmen auctions describe online auction portals where customers list handcrafts jobs or services they want to have carried out and craftsmen or providers make their bids. This type of auction is characterized by decreasing prices, which is called Dutch auction. During a certain time horizon, the customer receives different bids for the service demanded and can choose the offer he is willing to pay for. As the business model definition is limited to service and craftsmen auctions, general online auction portals such as eBay are not considered. Furthermore, a website must not be restricted to one local region (e.g. Florida). Moreover, the websites are required to include auction features such as allowing several bidders for one offer; thus, ordinary classified ads do not fall under this definition.

commented Quotatis.de:
"LetsWorkIt.de" was one of the leading platform of this kind in Germany. The takeover was in 2006 by the french Quotatis S.A.. Later the name was changed in "Quotatis.de" and the business model was changed from Reverse-Auctions to agency of contact adresses. The founder of the originall idea "LetsWorkIT.de" were Alexander Bugge, Carsten Seel and Jörg Holtmann. Due to the fact, that the character of the business model changed they cannot be understood as the founder of "quotatis.de" with it´s idea behind it. Therefore we posted the Quotatis S.A. as the founder.
