> Yes, Taskwer has elements of both. As I said in my previous comment, it's different from GoFundMe in a way that campaign creators don't have to ask for donations, instead, they can offer services to people in their community.

There are two clear ways to do this: charity or work. GoFundMe is charity, TaskRabbit/etc is work. Unless you can communicate very clearly why the middle ground of not-charity-not-work is better, I don't think you'll be able to compete with service that have a much clearer proposition.

I've read your post/comment and I don't really understand the difference between this and GoFundMe/TaskRabbit. It seems some users would use it as basically a TaskRabbit replacement, and some would over-value their time because it's sort of a donation platform. If I (and others on this thread) have read a lot of detail about the platform and don't understand the core value, I don't think someone reading a ~10 word advert will on Facebook will, and that's the format you'll need to be able to win on.

I suggest coming up with a very succinct way of pitching the service that makes it obviously better than a job or charity (both of which have many existing solutions). I wish you the best of luck with that.

...having read the site a bit more, it seems there's another angle – the project. This doesn't really change my point, but Kickstarter does fund projects (not products), so again I feel that it needs to be explained why Taskwer is better than Kickstarter for a project.
