When choosing a reliable expert, consider elements like a Verified Icon, which confirms a business's identity and details through the Australian Business Register. Look for genuine customer reviews and how businesses respond to criticism, as this reflects professionalism. Check for photos of past work and badges like the Featured or New to Oneflare, indicating commitment to quality. Conduct extra research by verifying licences and qualifications through government websites. For peace of mind, request written agreements, especially for larger jobs or cash payments. Oneflare encourages trust and thorough vetting before hiring.
Choosing the right expert isn't straightforward, but certain aspects of a business profile can guide you. Ultimately, it's your decision, but consider these key factors:
- Verified Icon: Businesses with this icon have verified their primary user's identity and business details through the Australian Business Register. Our team reviews all documentation before awarding the Verified icon, so look for it when hiring.
- Reviews: Customer reviews and ratings indicate service quality. Consider feedback, especially if there are negative reviews, along with the business's response. A business's response to criticism shows professionalism. Reliable businesses accept feedback and aim to improve!
- Photos of Past Work: Check for an image gallery on the business profile or request examples of previous work for confidence in your hire. After the job, consider sending photos to the business to enhance their profile.
- Featured Badge: A featured badge indicates a Premium Oneflare Business committed to high-quality service.
New to Oneflare Badge: New businesses may go the extra mile to earn your trust, so consider giving them a chance. New businesses aim for great reviews and may offer excellent service. Feel free to ask for their qualifications and insurance details if not listed on their profile.
Before hiring, research the business, ensuring their licences and insurance are valid. Most government agencies have licence search tools on their websites.
Trust is vital when hiring, so don't hesitate to request a written agreement, especially for larger jobs or upfront payments. Oneflare has many skilled businesses willing to travel for jobs.
