Writing a Clear Job Description

The more specific your description (exact task, materials needed, timeline expectations), the more accurately workers can quote and the fewer misunderstandings arise later — vague descriptions lead to disputes.

Setting a Realistic Budget

Check typical rates for your trade category before setting a budget — underpricing a job may mean no qualified workers apply, while overpaying wastes money you could negotiate down.

What Happens After You Post

Verified workers matching your job category and location are notified; you'll see their reputation profiles before confirming which worker to hire — you're never forced to accept the first response.

No Smartphone Required

Job posting and confirmation can happen entirely via USSD on a basic phone — you don't need internet access or a smartphone app to hire reliably verified help.
