Hiring Expert: Need Help with SMS Alerts & Database Logic for Marketplace App

[1David]

Hi everyone,

​I’m looking for a professional Adalo developer to help me finalize the build for IKAG Connect, a referral marketplace. I have already handled the domain setup and professional email masking, so the foundation is ready.

​I need assistance with the following technical milestones:

​SMS Integration: Setting up automated, transactional SMS alerts to notify service providers when a lead matches their trade.

​Database Relationships: Finalizing the logic between users, jobs, and referrals to ensure a smooth flow.

​API Connection: Connecting a provider like ClickSend or TextMagic to the app via Zapier or custom actions.

​This is a paid project. I am looking for someone with experience in B2B marketplaces who can help me push this across the finish line efficiently.

​Please reply with your experience and your typical availability. Looking forward to working with a pro!

Looks like you’re already in good hands here, but just wanted to say I’m also available to help if needed.

I’ve worked on similar setups, SMS integrations and structuring marketplace database logic, so getting this across the finish line efficiently shouldn’t be an issue

Feel free to reach out if you need another hand or want a second perspective.

Hi ,

I appreciate you checking in. Before we move forward with the next steps for IKAG Connect, I need to conduct a standard vetting process to ensure our technical alignment. This is a high-priority project for me, and I want to ensure the foundation is handled by the right expert.

Please provide the following so I can review:

Portfolio: Links to 2–3 live applications you have personally built that are currently available on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. I’m particularly interested in seeing any marketplace or lead-generation functionality.

Fixed-Price Quote: I am looking for a flat-rate quote for the Phase 1 MVP build. This scope must include:

Database mapping and user roles (Service Providers vs. Clients).

Payment integration via Stripe.

SMS/Push notification flow for new lead alerts.

Timeline: What is your estimated turnaround time from the moment you receive the assets to a functional test build?

Revisions: How many rounds of bug fixes or refinements are included in your flat rate?

Once I’ve had a chance to review your previous work and these numbers, we can discuss the Admin invitation to the Google Play Console.

I look forward to your response.

Best regards,

David Mims

Founder, IKAG Connect

Hey @1David, I would recommend checking the Marketplace Starter App Template I created:

Marketplace Starter Template – Fully Functional Adalo App

Hi everyone, Following my series on collections and relationships, I built a ready-to-use Marketplace Starter template.

A Practical Approach to Structuring Collections in Adalo

From my experience building many Adalo apps, a well-structured database is what keeps an app fast, stable, and flexible when new features are added. Good structure also makes visibility rules, list filtering, custom formulas, and relationships much easier to work with. Here’s the approach I personally follow when planning collections for new builds. Start with the core objects of your app Before creating any collection, I define the main objects the app revolves around. These become your collec…

From Structure to Connections: Setting Up Effective Relationships in Adalo

Hey everyone, building on my last guide about structuring collections (find it here), let’s talk relationships. In the client apps I’ve built, getting these right early saves tons of fixes later, slow lists, broken filters, inconsistent data all stem from rushed relationships. Relationships connect collections cleanly, avoiding duplicates. Here’s the practical breakdown. Choosing the right type I map it to “real world” logic: One-to-Many: Most common. One User owns many Listings; many List…
