Thumbtack: A user's reviews and recommendations

8/6/2013

Every day or so, I get an email notifying me from Thumbtack that "you have a new lead" and gives a brief description of a photography job in my area. I can place bids on the job if I think I am a good fit or option for the client. It is a great tool for a business owner to use, and it gives me the details of their budget and needs before I even say "hello".

It is also a great tool if you are looking for a particular service and don't know where to start! The choices can be overwhelming and this site offers you a great way to screen professionals.

I think Thumbtack offers a great service for both professionals and clients, so I wanted to pass on the find to all of you! To see my Thumbtack profile, click on the link below.

Hello Colleen! I see that your post was written in August. Do you still feel the same about Thumbtack? I registered with the company last month and I am not getting any warm and wuzzy feelings about the leads.

They had given me "free credits" to actively reply to leads. Once those ran out, admittedly, I have not been using their site. I didn't ever pay for more, and have never been hired from responding to leads.

I think the idea of the company is good, but that people are presented with too many choices, so it is ultra competitive for businesses.
