Hey,
thanks for checking it out. Well, it's different from GoFundMe in a way that people don't have to ask for donations; many people don't like that. Instead, they offer services in their community. Also, supporters, on the other hand, get something in return for their contributions, which I believe would incentivize them to support campaign creators.
You mention "services like tutoring, babysitting, pet sitting, transportation, home repair, and various other tasks they could carry out after their working hours.". Anyone looking for a babysitter will firstly need someone local and someone they can trust their baby with. And there already exist several services catering such needs. Your first users will all have to be from same neighbourhood for the app to be useful for any of them.
Exactly, creators should offer services in their community to people they know and people their friends know. I know there are multiple platforms that give people the ability to offer their services but they are based on good reputation and ratings which takes a long time to build. The idea behind Taskwer is to have a place where people who need to raise funds quickly, can come, create a campaign, offer services mostly to people they know and raise funds for their cause that way.
I am failing to see why would anyone choose to bypass all the existing options with ratings and reputations, to find a service provider. It's going completely opposite to the customers' interests.
Also "offer services mostly to people they know" conflicts with your business. If I am offering services to people I know, I message them, and they pay me cash. Why would a 3rd party be involved in it ? Unless you're offering some sort of checks / security, at which point you're competing with the existing services.
I concur, web design is great! If the whole user-finding is too daunting or will not work, you can still sell your assets on things like Microfounder or acquire.com.
My first thought was that the service has great overlap with community currencies and LETS systems where people issue social credit for tasks performed. I take that overlap as that the idea is viable when executed superbly, like the web design.
