Thumbtack for Non Home Based Services

STL_Shooter78

Now that Thumbtack is only focusing on home based services, are they going to spinoff the categories for non home based services into a new website and under a different name?

Customers can still find pros across all of our categories, home or non-home. I personally just recently hired someone to cater a party and someone to make signs for it :)

DustiO,

I don't think you are tracking. I'm NOT asking if people who already know that there are non-home based service providers on the platform can still post gigs and hire us.

When I say "us/our" I mean me and my fellow creative pros.

I AM asking what Thumbtack is doing to leverage our existence/history on the platform.

I AM asking if Thumbtack is going to do anything proactive with us creative pros who have been on the platform 5-10 years, have built up quite a bit of reviews, but don't seem to fit into the current identity of the platform's brand.

The home page makes it look like Thumbtack ONLY has home based professionals on there.

In fact, the scrolling titles all start with the word "Home": Home Improvement, Home repair, Home inspection, Home cleaning,

One solution idea: spin all the creatives: videography, photography, sing making, etc into a clone platform that had a different name.
