# Service Marketplaces and Freelance Platforms

meetsmore.com is a services marketplace in Japan, and Mitsumoa (ミツモア) is a directory of service providers and contractors, roughly Japan's equivalent of a services-focused classifieds site. Lancers and Socious.io are freelance platforms; Lancers charges a relatively high commission (16.5-22%), while Socious charges less. s.kakaku.com is a large product/price-comparison aggregator (cars, SIM cards and more), useful for competitive retail-pricing research. AnyMind Group is a Japanese company offering brand and marketing products, cited as an interesting reference. osome.com offers company registration and consulting for startups in Singapore and Hong Kong, with a referral registration route mentioned in the community. 3rd-inc.jp helps with promotion and management for clothing/handmade brands, and smartlaundry.jp is an example smart-laundromat service used for competitive market analysis.
