creating her own business that would help people who also needed a

helping hand in their daily duties.

Services like Taskrabbit and Thumbtack are two-fold platforms that connect
people who need to have a task done (Posters) with people willing to
provide their services for payment (Taskers).

The main value proposition for clients is quickly finding a

handyman in a great pool of different services (even very
weird) with competitive and transparent pricing. The marketplace is a good
solution for those who do not need a constant hire rather an on-demand
errand doer. Additional perks for posters include:
 Background check for specialists
 No cash electronic payments with escrow
 Insurance guarantee or ‘no-show’ reimbursement for tasks

For taskdoers
On the other hand, taskers obtain a place where they can advertise their
services to get leads without many efforts and ramp up their business.

 To use a marketplace like Taskrabbit, a person who needs a specialist fills
in their task details and views a list of matched and available taskers with
their profiles, hourly rates, and reviews. Then, a customer can initiate
communication with a selected Tasker to clarify the order details. Upon
completion of the task, the customer pays the tasker through one of the
payment methods.
