Why is it so hard to find reliable services on base?

I’ve noticed something on base and wanted to see if it’s just me or if others deal with this too. Whenever I need something like a haircut, babysitter, car detail, etc., it usually turns into scrolling through Facebook groups, asking around, or hoping someone tags the right person. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, and posts get buried pretty fast. At the same time, I see a lot of people (especially spouses) trying to run small side businesses, but they’re also relying on posting in groups and word of mouth.

It feels like people who need services can’t easily find them or people offering services can’t consistently get customers

Curious how others handle this Do you just rely on Facebook groups? What’s been your biggest frustration trying to find or offer services on base?
