next our Helfstein from Jason Oppenheimer. take We'll question with

Jason Helfstein

and ANGI a to then just up I'll follow I dig One, questions. into Two on more Thanks. Care. want little

impressive other want So from does two-thirds of how thinking X% I call of house. to that. projects, mean actually that your has during that, are people almost COVID? coming about the down And and scared I April from their did avoid in that and extent second then GMV the question, Thanks. we'll imagine having people in those cohort you professionals delaying that liability you're does is focus, grow? given one-third is the then to Care.com COVID projects? discretionary what I mean how very necessary two If that for could And kind like

Brandon Ridenour

the said, done. Jason, Thanks, getting big two-third And as but comfortable discretionary work question, seem very, also the people the is nondiscretionary, always outdoors a outside. Yes. very of for we've chunk is

it So been has when you indoor nondiscretionary impacted. down, the boil that has And all been only impacted.

recover it some previously. seeing are We to but where was back it not

of lot said I there's earlier, uncertainty think Overall, April question deficit, entered major is the short strength. answer of Joey we and nature that a some as a the exit at to we with around strength. your

it March. You postulate of late of pent-up that period delayed demand can from the or shock demand sort in is

in and a be of hand, than before home other more were people services more they could spending and to it focus the beginning of secular boom dinner where so home a their having you go home people restaurants, home sort much in so the in on and and with to in from their forth. in much world time On can't the over being on

is very I wide. and very future outcomes So the of is uncertain dispersion think the

think, certainly feel accelerating least, living that And here good strong done. in is world position in the comfortable we term difference and hump confident them getting online we're is the and terms situation. performance, What we're in April medium and We're about them in people terms near indoor in from of the – at features can the the real material difference off-line work I over we make getting for a think that pretty that being a financially. to providing make given a financial of we in – in

if We and can focus people indoor that's a for ultimately done confidence work believe safely – being that, right us. be it's guidelines the done, huge indoor are following work that have in done and can how

in kind demand into discretionary, we're seeing we're overview, everything of definitely those but think that's in but – focus our a the and I seeing lot definitely of areas.

Next question out there please.

Operator

Next comes question with from Eric Sheridan UBS.

Eric Sheridan

seeing have we're year? sure just make as we a monetization on look and before, guidance there the and Thanks in piece just a your level might the year, to year are I of we seeing but response sure direct first for so mean costs, back of called then you're in to I part giving the so not of through And that those pieces engagement Dotdash know of you you that clarified could more acquisition comments we I company fiscal things double that costs, for success out and want that the couple question. some inside to taking might everyone. care.com the of what e-commerce? know, the this that where Thanks fall how to much granularity make terms on full of and long-term? pieces endowment want you've for sort individual were get on moving wanted you the align little spin what the we

Joey Levin

I'll let the Glenn part. do second

so there's I so of about engagement starting and key – and terms piece on having nicely really Dotdash, to advertisers and there it the in you our The content it's of talk tools all, in starting the key really there, is using those In is actionable. diversify. then to marketing performance scale mean monetization, first of of hundreds platform that's

How account? be account. the why So brokerage What I Number certain a kind content I in do one, and with existing things for need brokerage account? That's there? around a do that do like, brokerage a I balance. do of do would finding the example, Investopedia

those where account And coming the and rates thing We are as need one account? what us rates kind don't that a and here. affects else great open also account? something But likely What and of other? building need to the somebody from revenue don't rates we're we completely is, there anybody's versus here that any building is to their scratch, tools we're about matter? my kind okay, the I to those are so me should within what doing against the of the are What And brokerage protect partially, that are revenue. of protect be tools,

just is to goal the for consumer. Our deliver

the And fastest, that's we're best, as freshest consumer information, then for where impartial, so to just sometimes click-through long the monetized. advertisers delivering the and they gets that

Well, that's our goal.

content is deliver areas for just Our intent-driven goal that that where but in to make to impartial content users. it's

and personally able don't somebody a need a of account, as doing. to range equation. folks do that we'll that's the don't know to wide to that to information. what across looking need of them. We brokerage the side very with they're We is users need for sort cookie continue advertising We what don't looking a the And brokerage us demographic information. coming intent. identifiable account understand so to be to their to need we their We for understand are other We matters on of I don't think to monetize guess because the it long categories,

Glenn Schiffman

Joey Levin

Brandon, the other first, one the with and close you do question. why don't ANGI I'll out

Brandon Ridenour

Yes.

of there obviously providers is, time. Marketplace an particularly for The long the know, less consumer And excess a segment had is of nature more So demand consumer the you the as we've us. model, resilient. guys demand business very need in our

a themselves and active more. goes have So see engage lot SPs make even and of we still as we down, available more, demand it,

sales put XX% some perspective were we versus that's sales all-time same the was bringing the To I highest more and said around SPs month up in of April, new size. last that, terms force company. in on it our history that's the April, In of on, roughly a

the So a absolute you of sense gives productivity force. of sales it our

we've of the course being sophisticated at way is tailor to the Part get offering But need just last right able year part of over far customer to these customers. another that in is small in time. having right of and businesses become in best-in-class our terms it it of more the right the tools the helping

way. different that kitchen I in the handyman But a think somebody is in one-size-fits-all in approached XXX different we've And or than point, is a our same XX-year have experience it that remodels. the reality a might very is up to a company techs. always two very does this or than maid who way, a one people is business

way of just able of there let's call the to terms better being we early of go appeal customization. offerings up positive of configurations bring get very SPs a because over found products from those we considering are so long up and even with in course more we that at of simply runway got lot And seeing months. on segmentation and segments we've last, it range of unique tailored the to But the and nine opened situations We and have think started that, and come our a configurations. ability impacts we're to a that to have that

Joey Levin

for possible. inventory something where businesses part terms looking well. not typically us. raising too, likely anything think answer question, of of I think are we've historically kinds It and don't to asked – I rule forgot for this it. I at, is of question, e-commerce we're out. Ross' But We kind done this mean anything In don't so companies of those thanks I is Ross is

businesses. always really, think that certainly, anywhere. businesses, for really suppose leaders we'll marketplace is what be we run. there's we're be if one, looking categories and you we could in feel And like I But picked I where e-commerce. think category to for big marketplace room looking significant very But

categories potential. probably to to more likely brands think big likely with we think, e-commerce be in be, it's big but less I good
