Job-Runners

Outsource errands, tasks & everyday jobs to background checked people in your neighborhood

Saturday, January 31, 2015

Job-Runners is a website helping to make peoples lives easier. We connect busy people and small businesses with background checked Runners (service providers) in their neighborhood to get errands, chores and everyday jobs done quickly, safely and easily. Users can post their job for free, briefly describing what they need to be done and by when - then, our background checked Runners immediately start providing quotes for the job if they are available and have the right skills/experience. Jobs completed on Job-Runners.com range from cleaning & laundry, online research or administrative help, handyman jobs, small creative and web based projects, event support staff for personal or corporate events and much more. Those posting jobs have total flexibility from a price perspective (there are no set hourly rates) and freedom to choose who they want for their job based on: the quote provided, reviews for previous jobs completed and a Runner’s personal profile information. Similarly, Runners have complete freedom to choose which jobs they want to provide a quote for and complete...they truly are micro-entrepreneurs. Trust is critical in the ‘Sharing Economy’. Many of the jobs completed often require Runners to be in the users home or place of work, interacting with small business customers or friends and family, or perhaps the handling of personal property/information. As such, in addition to providing background checks and a review system, we maintain a process which empowers users to decide exactly who they want for their job (rather than a system of auto-assigning) which is very important to our community. Job-Runners is already operating in the NY and NJ area and helping 1000's of people get connected to get their errands, chores and everyday jobs done. Job-Runners plans to expand to Chicago and Washington DC in early 2015.
