“An obvious angle is… we know you’ve just moved, why don’t you look at getting some help, here’s a great service to use called Airtasker.”

Some of the topics I discussed with Jonathan include:

  • How Airtasker’s “gig economy” concept first began and how it has changed the workforce for good
  • The past, present and future of Soho, the “LinkedIn of real estate”.
  • How Soho and Airtasker might work together in the future for real estate businesses, trades and other B2B services
  • Importance of business culture and values, especially in a company’s early days
  • Differences between the Australian and Singaporean/south-east Asian real estate industries, including how Singaporeans tackle the affordability problem via superannuation.
