GMV of won projects

One product, two profit levers — a cost reducer and a revenue driver. The only number that can't move unless a homeowner committed and a contractor won work.

The problem

Four pain points, two of them structural

P1

Homeowners can't communicate the vision

P2

Contractors quote from vague descriptions

P3

Quotes are impossible to compare

P4

Time wasted on low-intent homeowners

The plan

The three-year build

Year 1

€2.2m

GMV of won projects

Contractors
250
Total revenue
€133k
Take-rate
€88k

Year 2

€30.1m

GMV of won projects

Contractors
900
Total revenue
€1.55m
Take-rate
€1.20m

Year 3

€132m

GMV of won projects

Contractors
2,400
Total revenue
€6.56m
Take-rate
€5.28m

Year 3 GMV = 88% of stated SOM. Tight on purpose.

Risks

Three things worth arguing about

01 · The €60/hr opportunity cost

If Marco wouldn't have billed the hour, the saving is time, not cash. Answer: sell time back as capacity — even at 30% saved and zero win-lift the swing is still +€6,003.

02 · Estimate accuracy

A confidently wrong quote poisons trust faster than marketing rebuilds it. Answer: ranges never points, mandatory contractor sign-off, variance is a day-one guardrail.

03 · Take-rate leakage

Contractors will take jobs off-platform. Answer: keep the rate low, make milestone payments genuinely useful, price SaaS so the tool is worth keeping regardless.
