Niche Vetted Staffing (Hire-My-Mom Style)

Take a horizontal remote-staffing model with product-market fit and re-angle it for a specific niche or demographic (e.g., hiremymom.com targets moms; Squared Away targets military spouses; Howdy provides vetted South American developers). The vetting and 'stupid easy' full-time staffing is the wedge.

Why now
