Quotes 101: receive, compare & respond

Once your job is live on SkillScoop, specialists can begin sending you personalized quotes that include pricing and other key details. You’ll get notified on the platform every time a new quote comes in, so you can stay on top of responses.

You can also reach out first. If you find a specialist whose skills match your needs, head to their profile and click Request a Quote. Then, choose the relevant job and send your request — they’ll be notified and invited to quote.

Step 1: Receive Quotes

Sit back and let the quotes roll in — or actively invite specialists to quote on your job. Either way, you’re in control of who you hear from and when.

Step 2: Compare Quotes

When reviewing quotes, look at more than just the price:

  • Price – Does it fit your budget and reflect the level of service you’re after?
  • Experience & Skills – Check their profile to see their qualifications and areas of expertise.
  • Extras – Some specialists include tools, materials, or added services. Review the details for a full picture.

Step 3: Respond with Confidence

Once you’ve got your quotes, here’s what to do next:

  • Message the Specialist – Ask questions, clarify details, or learn more about their approach.
  • Negotiate – Feel free to discuss pricing, timelines, or terms until you reach an agreement.

Take your time, compare your options, and move forward with the specialist that feels like the right fit for your job.
