Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Adam Evans is an Air Force spouse who had to give up his career when his family moved to a new duty station. Sounds like a familiar story, right?

A business professor by profession, Adam decided to put his expertise to work in working on a business. After seeing a flyer at the base gym and meeting his now business partners for a happy hour, he joined the team at InstandHandz and hasn’t looked back.

They are a tech company where individuals who need household chores done (think yard work or hanging up lights) can connect with a provider who can do the job for a fee. But in this case, the providers are all connected to the military.

This is a great episode to learn about how business and technology can build services that not only make money, but provide real value to both sides of the transaction. And how business can create intangible benefits like connecting military members with their local community.
