How to Write a Task Post That Gets Bids Fast
Quick answer: Write a task post that gets fast bids by being specific about exactly what you need, where, and when, instead of posting a vague description.
A well-written task post on Biddy Jobs doesn’t just attract more bids — it attracts the right bids. When earners can quickly understand exactly what you need, where you are, and when you need it, they respond faster and with more accurate pricing. Here’s how to write a post that works.
Be Specific About the Task
Vague posts get vague responses. Instead of “help with yard work,” try “mow and edge my front and back lawn — approximately 5,000 sq ft in Coral Springs, FL. I have a mower available if needed.” The more context you give, the more confident an earner can be in their bid — and the more likely they are to submit one.
Include measurements, quantities, or photos where relevant. If it’s a cleaning job, mention the number of rooms. If it’s furniture assembly, list the pieces. Specifics eliminate back-and-forth and get you to a confirmed booking faster.
Name Your Budget Range
You don’t have to set an exact price, but sharing a budget range helps earners know if the job is worth bidding on. Tasks with budget guidance consistently receive bids sooner and from more experienced earners. If you’re unsure what something should cost, post it open and let the bids tell you — the market will respond.
Timing and Availability Matter
Tell bidders when you need the task done. “This weekend” is helpful. “Saturday between 9am and 1pm” is even better. Earners on Biddy Jobs are juggling their own schedules, so knowing your window helps them decide if they can commit — and means the person who accepts is genuinely available when you need them.
Include any access details too: Is there parking? A gate code? A dog they should know about? A quick note now prevents a headache on the day of the task.
