Service WorkSource: From Setback to Comeback—Supporting Trades and Service Industries with Affordable Hiring Solutions

Service WorkSource, a job board for trades and service industries, has officially relaunched after overcoming technical setbacks and hurricane impacts.

TAMPA, FL, UNITED STATES, December 20, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Service WorkSource, a Sarasota-based, nationwide job board for trades and service industries, has reemerged stronger than ever after overcoming a series of setbacks, including a critical technical issue and the operational disruptions caused by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Originally launched as Cleaning WorkSource, the platform grew rapidly, attracting over 20,000 job seekers per month within its first six months. However, in November, a coding failure in the SaaS platform powering its job postings caused traffic to plummet to just 100 visitors—coinciding with the community-wide challenges brought on by the storms.

“It was a hard blow—financially and emotionally,” said Steven Pajevic, Founder of Service WorkSource. “But instead of stopping us, it reminded us why we started this journey in the first place: to help small businesses hire affordably and give job seekers tools to succeed. We listened, we rebuilt, and we came back stronger.”
