MYRTLE BEACH, S.C., March 28, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Online freelance marketplace Legiit marked its one year anniversary on February 7th, celebrating 365 days of matching entrepreneurs and business owners with the talent they need to get more stuff done. Legiit was founded by Chris M. Walker, who discovered his own success selling freelance SEO services online in 2015.
"I wanted to create more than just another digital marketplace," says Walker. "I wanted to build a community where talented freelancers could connect with clients to help each other find mutual success."
Legiit fulfills this mission through a number of avenues. Thousands of buyers and sellers communicate daily on the Legiit Facebook Group. Weekly posts on the Legiit Blog serve up valuable advice on how to find success as a freelancer—and how to hire the right person for the job. And a regular newsletter roundup gives sellers a chance to advertise their new services and exciting deals.
"I remember how hard it was getting started as a freelancer," added Walker. "So when it came to Legiit, I wanted to build in as many ways as possible for sellers who perform good, honest work to get themselves in front of the clients they deserve."
Looking back on Legiit's first year, Walker can see his vision taking shape. With thousands freelancers completing tens of thousands of sales already, it's clear that buyers and sellers alike have discovered a marketplace they can trust.
Walker attributes the success to top-notch customer service that's rare in a digital marketplace, as well as a user-focused business strategy that let's the platform adapt based on community feedback. When the community asked for coupon codes, Legiit added the functionality. When they found flaws in the messaging system, Legiit fixed them. When sellers needed a way to take custom orders, Legiit found a way to make it happen.
"We're far from a perfect platform," said Walker. "But I think we're getting a little bit better every single day. And I really owe it all to our awesome community of users."
The marketplace has big plans going into its second year. Legiit 2.0, a massive upgrade to the user interface, is just around the corner. The new platform will offer buyers and sellers an even more streamlined experience to take care of business.
