How to write a good task description

When creating a task, it's important to provide a detailed and clear description for Taskers to understand what you need to be done. This ensures that both you and the Taskers are on the same page right from the start. It also helps Taskers come prepared with the correct equipment and materials, avoiding any delays in completing the task.

Based on our observations, a good task description includes the following:

• All relevant details about the task.
• A task price that covers the entire cost of completing the task.
• Additional information such as photos, measurements, model numbers, and materials needed.

Here is an example of a well-written task description and one that could use some improvement:

Good: I'm looking for someone to mow my lawn, which is roughly 50ft by 50ft in size. The grass has grown to around 10 inches tall. I also have 5 potted plants that need pruning. I have attached some pictures of the potted plants to this task. My green bin is full, so you'll need to take the clippings away. I work weekdays, so early afternoon on either Saturday or Sunday would be perfect. I need this done before April 5th.

P.S. You'll need to bring your own lawn mower because mine is broken.

Bad: Mow my lawn and prune my plants.

By providing a detailed and informative task description like the “Good” example, you'll attract Taskers who understand the requirements and can complete the task effectively.
