Sydney, NSW, Australia (PRWEB) January 24, 2007 -- Imagine taking just a few minutes to find a tradesman interested in your job. Across Australia over 17,000 BANGitUP.com customers have now achieved what was considered impossible - effortlessly finding tradesmen interested in your job and in the process saving hours of frustration.

BANGitUP.com announced today it had passed its 17,000th online trade request with the average time to find a trades person anywhere in the country dropping to an amazing 3 minutes.

Statistics showed that the average time to find any tradesmen across the country was 2.7 minutes but interestingly plumbers were generally faster at 2.5 minutes than electricians 2.8 minutes and builders at 3.1 minutes.

Scott Maxworthy, CEO of BANGitUP.com said "You have to love your plumber, he has the great job of cleaning up the stuff most of us are just to scared to even think about - how they can reply to an SMS that quickly with their hand half way up a pipe is beyond me, I suppose it's the fact that through BANGitUP's Trade Select Service only relevant leads are sent to their phones and if they're interested they can SMS reply instantly with just a "Y" or ring our call centre on 1300 796 279".

How to find a tradesman fast
Go to the http://www.BANGitUP.com website. Click on "find a tradie", select the trade you need, enter your postcode, a rough budget, when you want the job done and submit. Entering a job takes about a minute and most importantly it's free for the public.

"The service works a bit like a dating service for finding builders and tradesmen, after your job has been processed within minutes you get an email and SMS with details of the guys that are interested. You can then check their licenses, insurances, if they have a web site etc. The service simply makes a historically cumbersome process far more efficient". Maxworthy said.

BANGitUP will be demonstrating TRADE SELECT at the National Tradesman's Expo, Brisbane, March 30 -April 1; Adelaide 18-20 May; Melbourne 1-3 June; Perth 15-17 June.
