Tim Fung, Co founder and CEO of Airtasker, joins the show to talk aboutHow an apartment move led to the founding of Airtasker.How tasking and labor markets differ globally, and what this market looks like in Australia.How Airtasker is focusing on localization and community to differentiate from platforms like Fiverr and Upwork.Finding product, channel fit, and how Airtasker used regional media outlets to drive awareness in local markets to create local jobs.

As household budgets strain from added costs, some people are turning to sites like Airtasker to fill that shortfall in many odd and wonderful ways.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Up to 80% of your conversion rate is determined by your messaging. Without a clear message, your audience won't understand what you do or how you can help them. But with the right words to mobilize your mission, your customers won't just buy from you once–they'll tell their friends, too. Tim Fung is the co-founder and CEO of Airtasker, a trusted online marketplace that connects people who need work done with people who want to work and have the skills to do the job. Airtasker's mission is to empower people to realize the full value of their skills–to create jobs, income, and purpose, and have a positive impact on the future of work on a global scale. The company's powerful messaging has paved the way for rapid growth and expansion. Prior to starting Airtasker, Tim was a founding team member and investor in telco startup Amaysim, playing a key role in strategy and capital raising. He is a founder and director of several web startups, including online custom shirt design business Joe Button and motorsport event management group Circuit Club. A Compelling Reason to Change When developing Airtasker, Tim knew their biggest challenge would be to get people on the platform. Once they started using it, they would see the value–but getting people to adopt any new technology can be difficult. The solution was to offer users a compelling reason to change their behavior.  Most taskers (the people on Airtasker who offer services) were used to a pay-per-lead model, where they paid for advertising in the hopes that it would lead to a job. Airtasker flipped that model on its head: taskers can use the platform for free, see what jobs are available, and apply for as many as they want. Airtasker only takes a percentage fee once the job is booked. They also came up with a compelling reason for customers to try the platform. Unlike other gig economy apps, Airtasker starts by asking their customers to describe their problem (however niche it might be). Then taskers are free to suggest creative solutions. For example, if someone accidentally flies their drone into a tree, they can post on Airtasker for help getting it down. The community-driven model means there are also very few disputes between customers and taskers. Out of hundreds of thousands of tasks completed each month, less than one in 10,000 become disputes. Building a Brand People Resonate With Since Airtasker's inception, Tim and his co-founder have been intentional about building a brand around their mission: to empower people to realize the value of their skills. For example, their “like a boss” campaign featured a variety of taskers who don't fit the traditional model of what a “boss” looks like, but have been able to create a business for themselves using Airtasker.  It's a message that resonates with their target audience–both taskers, who enjoy having control over their income, and customers, who appreciate the contribution to the local community. The result is happy customers and powerful word-of-mouth marketing. Enjoy this episode with co-founder & CEO Tim Fung… Quotes “Why do we ask friends and family to do these kinds of jobs when there are so many people out there who want to earn a living?” “There's nothing more motivating than knowing this is your thing and you have to make it work.” “It's kind of like the world's oldest business model in some sense. It's not an innovative business model but it's actually something that hasn't existed yet.” “Having more people in the marketplace makes it a better business for everyone.” “Every place across the world has the commonality of: you need people who have skills and you need to get stuff done. The great thing about the business model is that the local people decide what that thing is.” Links mentioned in this episode: Airtasker website: http://www.airtasker.com  Connect with Tim on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/timjfung

This week, we are stepping outside the 9 to 5. Side hustles, second jobs, crafting and more have boomed as millions of workers embraced working from home during the pandemic. Isabel talks to Tim Fung, co-founder of Airtasker, a platform for buying and selling services and skills, used by many as a way to earn extra cash. How does he cope with his own staff's side hustles?Taylor Nicole Rogers, the FT's US labour and equality correspondent, explains that many people have two jobs because of shortfalls in pay. But during the pandemic many of us lost touch with our workplaces and focused on developing a sense of personal purpose and identity. Building an Etsy business or sock-selling empire is one expression of that - and having tasted freedom, it's easier to walk away from a main job.Isabel and Taylor come up with strategies for managers dealing with staff side hustles.

In this chat, Tim shares how he got started with Airtasker and effectively scaled a two sided marketplace that now lists over 80,000 tasks every month. He gives us insights on how eCommerce skills are in demand and how some businesses are turning to Airtasker to fill skill gaps.

ASX-listed ‘gig economy' platform Airtasker ramped up after selling equity to Seven West Media, “one of the best moves in our history,” says CEO Tim Fung. But that deal ended in March and now he must repeat the trick – while trying to go global – without big media budgets. Fung's backing Airtasker Listings, its latest iteration, to drive product discovery and power customer growth. So far it's working, and the ‘long tail' of local services is starting to wag the dog. But while demand is “exploding”, Australia's skills crunch is driving up prices.  Fung urges Mi3 readers with skills to join the platform. Even he's side-hustling for $500 a pop.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode I catch up with my friend Tim Fung who has recently successfully IPO'd his company - Airtasker! We talk about how achievement is often the sum of small wins and that if it started with a big audacious goal of an IPO in the first place, the task would have seemed monumental. I always like catching up with Tim and this is the follow up conversation from our first chat so if you haven't listened to that please check that episode out as well!  

After years of hard slog trying to build sales on his online services marketplace Airtasker, Tim Fung then found rapid scale-up of the business challenging once growth started to kick in ... including managing his own role as CEO, which he says completely changed every year as the company grew. But even though Airtasker is yet to make a profit, Tim Fung says he's motivated by the jobs Airtasker has created in its 9 years of operation, which translated into $143million in total sales through the Airtasker marketplace last year, empowering the 150,000 “taskers” who've earned money on the site, supported by almost 1 million paying customers. In Part 2 of our chat, Tim reveals why he chose to list on the ASX while keeping all his shares, and staying on as CEO; how they navigated through the COVID pandemic and why listening to others and being open to taking advice is sometimes crucial.

After a stint working in finance at Macquarie Bank, and then working pro bono at one of Sydney's biggest modelling agencies, young Tim Fung got noticed by one of the agency's owners, who gave Tim opportunities to help a small team start up a sim-only mobile virtual phone network operator, which turned into Australia's 4th-largest mobile service provider Amaysim. Living through that successful start-up helped give Tim Fung the confidence needed when he and a friend came upon their simple idea, whilst moving house, to try and match those many people with skills and talents to those customers who needed jobs done—anything from gardening and fixing leaks to drafting up contracts and assembling IKEA furniture —and to do that via a digital marketplace, where customer and “tasker” decide on the price. While Airtasker was born less than a decade ago, it still took a number of years of struggle to get traction in the marketplace, and demonstrate credibility in order to win the trust of end users, who after all had to feel confident about letting strangers into their homes to perform the tasks. But 9 years on, Tim has built an e-commerce platform in Airtasker that boasts 950,000 paying customers, and hundreds of thousands of genuine and rave reviews from customers. Last week, when Tim Fung IPO'd Airtasker, publicly listing it on the ASX, the share price skyrocketed in its first trading days, buoyed according to The Australian Financial Review by Millennial traders giving Airtasker a definite thumbs up. How exactly did Tim Fung turn his humble idea into the Airtasker phenomenon? In Part 1 of our chat, we'll find out how and where it all began. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thursday 25th Microsoft in talks to buy Discord for more than $US10 billion Discord and Microsoft Said to Discuss Deal That Could Top $10 BillionPopular chat client Discord is potentially up for sale, with Microsoft a potential buyer, according to those in the know The Slack-like service is incredibly popular with gamers, and could easily slot into Microsoft's Xbox gaming environment, on consoles and PCsMicrosoft has another Slack-like chat product in Teams, but that has never really taken off outside of the enterprise - so there wouldn't be much overlap between the two clientsThe only other tech giant that seems like a suitable purchaser would be Amazon, who could roll Discord into its Twitch game streaming service. Or, this could all just be rumours to get Discord re-valued for an upcoming IPO Airtasker goes public The platform you turn to when none of your friends will help you move is worth more than $400 million dollars.Airtasker listed on the ASX on Tuesday with a market valuation of $255.4 million. By the end of the day, it was valued at $412.5 million. CEO Tim Fung, who co-founded the company in 2012, held onto his 12.7 per cent stake in the business through the IPO. His share is now worth more than $52 million. One of the biggest things the company has going for it? Name recognition. In 2020, 99% of Airtasker's new customers came from non-paid marketing channels. That means they don't need to pay the Google & Facebook tax. YouTube to auto-detect products in videos, serve related linksYoutube has a new experimental feature to detect products within a video, and generate links to the websites The system is a bit of a twofer - training Google's algorithms on image analysis, and also providing more ways to monetize youtube content. This seems to be the holy grail of tv marketing, I've read similar experiments over the years from network television, smart tvs, Instagram and even youtube in the past Youtube is already messy enough, do we really want more links and overlays in the service?

"So with Jonno and I, there was a very clear moment I can remember when I said, 'If we're gonna go ahead and do this...when it's on, it's on...'And we made that clear decision that we're dedicating the next years of our lives to doing this and that's what we did. We quit our jobs and we were all in." I speak to Tim Fung, founder of Airtasker, an online marketplace that allows people to outsource tasks and errands to people in their local community. Airtasker was founded in 2012 in Australia, now has over a million members and is launching in the UK in early 2018.  So if you're looking to make money from tasks, the practical such as moving furniture, right to the outrageously decadent such as paying someone to wait in line to buy you the latest iPhone then listen up. On today's episode Tim and I speak about a whole bunch of different things from raising finance to building a team.
