FixThatNow: a mission to connect professionals and customers fairly \u2014 no commissions, no expensive leads, no noise.<\/p>

FixThatNow is a transparent, local and people-focused platform where customers find reliable professionals in seconds \u2014 and providers keep 100% of their revenue.<\/p>

No hidden fees. No bidding wars. No phone spam.
Only real connections that work.<\/p> <\/div><\/div> <\/div><\/div> <\/section>

\ud83d\udc9a FixThatNow is a mission, not a marketplace<\/h2>

We believe that honest professionals and satisfied customers should be able to find each other easily \u2014
no hidden costs, commissions or wasted time.<\/p>

That's why we're building FixThatNow:<\/p>

A platform that works for everyone.<\/h3>

Professionals deserve visibility.
Customers deserve reliability.
Local councils deserve fair partners.<\/p> <\/section>

\ud83d\udccc Short Summary for Journalists<\/h2>

FixThatNow is a service platform with Dutch roots that connects customers with reliable professionals in their area. Job notifications are immediate for Pro, after 30 minutes for Plus and 120 minutes for Free. The platform operates without commissions, expensive leads or spam: customers receive a maximum of 5 quotes, and providers keep 100% of their revenue. FixThatNow was built on a personal mission \u2014 born from the founder\u2019s experience of starting as a cleaner and seeing both professionals and customers held back by inefficient platforms, marketing costs and a lack of visibility. FixThatNow deliberately chooses transparency, simplicity and fairness.<\/p> <\/section>

\ud83d\udcd8 Medium-Length Story for the Press<\/h2>

FixThatNow didn't start in an office, but in cleaning.
The founder worked for years in hotels, restaurants and companies, and saw firsthand how professionals struggled to stay visible \u2014 and how customers sometimes waited weeks for a reliable answer.
Later, when his wife started working as a self-employed cleaner, the problem became even clearer:
It's not the work that's hard, it's finding clients.<\/strong>
This led to the mission behind FixThatNow:
Building a platform that truly supports professionals, doesn't overwhelm customers with spam, and where everyone works without commissions or expensive leads.<\/p> <\/section>

\ud83d\udcd6 Full Founder Story \u2014 \u201cFrom Cleaner to Founder\u201d<\/h2>

\ud83d\udc9a FixThatNow is a mission, not a marketplace<\/strong>
In 2018, I came to the Netherlands with one suitcase and no plan. I found work in cleaning\u2014hotels, restaurants, businesses. It was hard but honest work. When my wife later came to the Netherlands and started as a self-employed cleaner, we finally saw the real problem:
\ud83d\udc49 Anyone who doesn't understand advertising or websites will remain invisible.
\ud83d\udc49 Good professionals don't know how to reach customers.
\ud83d\udc49 Customers wait days or even weeks for a single quote.
\ud83d\udc49 And platforms with commissions or lead packages only make it more difficult.
We started our own company\u2014first Excellent Shine, then Clean It Now. Within six months, we generated over 1,500 leads, 130+ customers, and \u20ac50,000 in revenue. But everywhere we saw the same problem:
Good professionals cannot grow because they have no system to find customers.
Customers don't know who is trustworthy.
The market is not working.<\/strong>
And then everything clicked.<\/p>

\u26a1 The Discovery<\/strong>
The problem is not the cleaning.
The problem is the connection<\/strong>.
Platforms sell the same lead to 5\u201310 providers.
Customers are being inundated with calls.
Professionals can waste money on poor or duplicate leads.
And whoever pays the most wins.<\/p>

\ud83d\udee0\ufe0f What we build<\/strong>
I didn't want another "lead platform." No commissions. No spam. No chaos.
I wanted to build the platform we needed when we started.
FixThatNow is that system:
Professionals keep 100% of their turnover
Customers receive a maximum of 5 quotes, clearly presented and without spam
Providers choose which jobs they respond to
No commissions. No expensive per-lead charges.
Free offers, with a Free plan and optional Plus or Pro plans billed annually.
FixThatNow is built for people, not clicks.
\ud83d\udcac \u201cI started as a cleaner.
Now I\u2019m building the platform I needed then.\u201d<\/p> <\/section>

\ud83d\udd0d Why FixThatNow Matters: Its Netherlands Market Background<\/h2>

\u2714 Strong need for local professionals<\/h3>

The Netherlands has a structural shortage of skilled workers in cleaning, odd jobs, electrical work, plumbing and painting.<\/p>

\u2714 Customers are being bombarded with spam<\/h3>

Existing platforms share customer details with 5\u201310 providers, leading to a flood of unwanted phone calls.<\/p>

\u2714 High marketing costs hinder small businesses<\/h3>

SEO, advertising and websites are expensive.
Many self-employed people disappear from the market.<\/p>

\u2714 Local councils seek partners who support local employment<\/h3>

FixThatNow helps self-employed professionals and small businesses become visible, creating a direct local impact.<\/p> <\/section>
