About Hiver
About
We are Hiver. We are a bunch of folks with borderline devotional love for email, committed to the idea of making it noise-free and collaborative for teams. Why email you may ask? Email is one of the most common ways to communicate at work, is far less distracting than its chat counterparts, and lets you respond at your own pace. But it hasn’t evolved over the years to meet the changing collaboration needs of businesses. Teams have to rely on inefficient methods like Forwards and CCs to share information, often leading to messy threads and missed emails. Not to mention the toll it takes on your productivity, ability to concentrate and all things zen. We at Hiver are trying to solve this by giving email collaborative superpowers and, in the process, giving you back the most important currency there is - time.

About Main Street:
We're solving a problem that 62% of Americans have
62% of Americans last year thought about starting a business. The #1 reason they didn’t was because they didn’t know where to start. Currents options are:
- Going independent which is risky: no support or direction
- Paying a franchise which is expensive: franchises charge $100K+ fees to get started, take 10% of topline revenue, don't provide marketing support or technology
The market we're going after is bigger than e-Commerce
We’re disrupting the $2.3T franchise industry by removing the franchise fee and offering a tech-enabled franchise like product.
We’re starting with home painting where our biggest competitor is https://certapro.com/">CertaPro a $550M revenue franchise (1% market share) before quickly taking on https://www.neighborlybrands.com/our-brands/">Neighborly Brands as we expand categories (pest control, lawn care, etc.).
As we expand categories, our customer does not change
Our customer is an aspiring business owner, like https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicklaforest">Nick or https://www.linkedin.com/in/hardin-h-hawes-9ba6a72/">Hardin who doesn't care what type of business they start, as long as it is profitable. Our customers are not actually the one painting houses or completing roofing jobs, rather they are the one that hires people to do the job. Our customer has years of experience in sales and general management, which makes them suitable for any type of business — which is why as we expand to 100 categories, our customer does not change.
