The Request a Quote feature lets you invite a specific specialist to send a quote for your project. Here’s how it works:
1. Post Your Job
Begin by creating a job post with all the essential details — the task you need done, your preferred timeline, and budget range.
Note: To use this feature, your job must match the specialist’s category. If the categories don’t align, you won’t be able to send a request.
2. Find Your Specialist
Head to the Find a Specialist page and browse for a specialist whose skills fit the job you’ve posted.
3. Send the Request
Once you’ve found the right specialist, click the Request a Quote button on their profile. You’ll be prompted to select the job you want them to quote for. This sends them a notification with a link to the job and invites them to submit a quote.
4. Wait for the Response
After receiving your request, the specialist will review your job details. If they’re interested and available, they’ll send you a quote.
Note: Keep in mind, if they don’t feel it’s the right fit, they may decide not to send a quote.
It’s that simple! The Request a Quote feature helps you connect directly with specialists who are the best match for your project, streamlining the process and making it easier to get the job done.
