OCEANSIDE, CA WiredPRNews.com- HireAHelper launched the new mobile version of the helper section on hireahelper.com last month for their service providers nationwide. Now, service providers can access job requests, look up customer information, accept or decline job, and enter payment codes from their cell phones. The helpers can login at m.hireahelper.com to access their account.

The mobile web world plays a key role in helping users achieve faster and easier communication. Mobile web browsing is having a growing impact on society forging new paths into what we understand communication to be. Having the means to communicate 24/7 at our fingertips increases the value of an individual’s time and their productivity level. Since moving companies are usually out of the office on job sites all day, it was imperative for the company to give them the ability to access other incoming job requests and customer information without the need to go by the office to use their computer.

Development based on feedback from service providers enabled the website developers to provide the mobile capabilities that helpers were looking for while out of the office. A smart phone (iPhone, Blackberry, Palm Pre, Treo, Windows Mobile, Blackjack, G1, Sidekick, or Palm Pilot) is needed to access the site. This link enables them to access other job requests and customer information including phone numbers and addresses while they are on a job site in case a customer needs to be called or they need to enter the payment code for a completed job.
“This is something that our service providers have been requesting, and it seems to make it much easier for them to conduct business while on the job site,” says Pete Johnson, one of the owners of HireAHelper, “and we have only received positive feedback from everyone so far.”

HireAHelper.com is the “Travelocity for moving”. Customers go online, select from 4,000 moving companies nationwide, read reviews, compare prices and book online. Started two years ago, HireAHelper was created by two founders with a mission to provide a platform where both companies and individuals can advertise their services to potential customers, and where customers can view rates and unedited reviews of service providers in their area. To make it easier, our service providers can now access their accounts from the mobile version of www.hireahelper.com. To find out more, please visit us at www.hireahelper.com.
