CHICAGO — Sears Holdings (SHLD) is to announce a new online venture Friday, marrying Internet bidding with home construction and repair.
Aimed at matching homeowners with contractors, handymen and other in-home helpers who can do everything from install a flat-screen television to repair a leaky toilet, ServiceLive.com lets consumers name their price and set up a date for services while selecting from a list of prescreened contractors who get information blasted to them by e-mail and text message.
