01 / The Brief

The job posting

We wrote a clear, detailed brief for a snow removal booking website and posted it to Fiverr. No ambiguity. No missing requirements. Here it is, exactly as submitted.

Booking Website for Snow Services $100 - $300
Business
El Dorado Snow Services
Deliverable
Working website, hosted and deployed
Category
Web Development

A clean, mobile-friendly booking website for a local snow removal company. Customers should be able to select a service (driveway, walkway, roof, commercial), enter property size, pick a date/time, and submit a booking request. The owner needs a simple admin view to see incoming bookings. No payment processing needed for now, just booking requests with email notifications. Should look professional, work on mobile, and be easy for the owner to manage.
