Marcus Lim, 2011 Anthill 30under30 Honourable Mention

For the homeowner whose wiring is on the fritz, whose busted kitchen cabinets beg for a makeover or whose bricks are simply lacking mortar, finding a professional to do the job can be nerve-wracking (and sometimes even mess with your plumbing). Pick A Quote, the website and iPhone application developed by Sydney's Marcus Lim, enables these overwhelmed individuals to post their jobs online and compare offers from competing trades and service providers in the neighbourhood.

TradeInsure.com.au (SMART 100)

I started my own financial planning firm in 2010, with insurance for tradesmen and women being our target market. Insurance for tradies is quite unique in that the minimum requirements are set by the various state and territory governments depending on the type of trade. As we started to field enquiries from tradies, we noted that many of them had no idea of their insurance responsibilities under the relevant laws. As we grew our own knowledge by doing research on our clients' behalf, we saw the opportunity to collate this information and create on online insurance resource for trade workers.
