HobbyNow

Find and Book Hobbies without Commitments.

HobbyNow is a platform that connects hobbyseekers with instructors without long term commitments, expensive equipment or mandatory memberships. Users can explore new hobbies freely, while instructors gain access to more customers and build their personal brand through the platform. We address a major market gap, most existing platforms and institutions require long term memberships or costly monthly plans. In Germany, personalised training is highly costly through these corporate giants. On the other side, instructors working within traditional institutions often lose their individuality as a brand. They become part of the institution’s identity rather than building their own. This is exactly where HobbyNow steps in. HobbyNow removes those barriers. Our features allow users to find instructors for their hobbies, discover, create, host hobbies, find affordable meeting spaces and borrow or lend equipment. Our target audience includes individuals eager to try new hobbies without financial pressure, as well as instructors who want to grow their brand and reach new clients without a large marketing budget.
