Launchbids Helps Entrepreneurs Find Developers With Low Rates

— May 31, 2016 — Lifestyle
This platform allows entrepreneurs to post their startup and find developers to help them build it. A startup itself, Launchbids gives developers the chance to bid to work on a project, competing against each other based on cash and equity. While this may not entirely work out in their favor, it does ensure entrepreneurs get the best deal. Developers can even give an estimate of how long it will take them to complete the project.

More than a job board, Launchbids is for developers willing to work for little pay but with investment opportunities if they come across a business idea they truly care about. This means entrepreneurs can find developers who are deeply passionate about their work.
