@LZDNVG " I agree, if Thumbtack isn’t working for you why post here all the time and bash Thumbtack? Makes no sense." Because at one point, Thumbtack did work for us, just fine, until they started mucking with it and made it something that didn't work. As I've said, I've been on thumbtack since 2010, have been hired 300+ times and got over 140 positive reviews, earning me Top Pro status a bunch of times. And I give Thumbtack a lot of credit for the success I've had so far, but by contrast, Top Pros like myself contributed to Thumbtack's success. Otherwise, it would be like a lot of those other sites like Fiver or Upwork that are out there and not particularly useful. And I think by turning it into essentially "Yelp-plus", they've done themselves a disservice. The full week of Promote, I got 160 views, and only 6 contacts, of which MAYBE 2 of them will turn into jobs this week. I think part of the problem is that unlike before when I was only competing with local resume writers, I am now competing with every resume writing service in the country. I did look at "View as a customer", and saw that there were a whole list of people who aren't in my region who are also promoted. I'm sure this overwealms the viewer, and they don't follow through.
