One of the great joys of working at Thumbtack is getting to spend time with entrepreneurs building and leading amazing local service businesses. Last week was filled with that, as we held our first-ever Pro Summit — a virtual event for pros all over the country. It was an opportunity to honor our pros for the work that they do, share product updates and discuss improvements that were focused on their feedback. Our Pro Summit extends the conversation we have all year with our Pro Advisory Board — helping us to understand and improve the pro experience. These are just two examples of how we’re working with pros to build a better home services industry — one that meets the expectations of today's homeowners and supports pros in building long-term customer relationships. https://lnkd.in/gxVwv5FN #HomeCare #Thumbtack #LocalBusinesses

In Thumbtack’s new research, Gen Z — aka the “Toolbelt Generation” — reported rising interest in the skilled trades (up 12% YOY), driven by social media and lingering college regrets. A majority of Gen Zers, nearly equal between men and women, told us they’re considering a career in the skilled trades. And this number jumps to 72% among college grads. So what’s fueling this shift? 67% said their interest in the trades is inspired by social media, the 2nd biggest influence on their careers. And it makes sense — nearly 9 in 10 home service pros are happy in their careers today, and a staggering 95% are optimistic about what the future holds. While there’s still a lot of work to be done, I’m encouraged by these trends, as hiring young talent was the #1 concern among home services professionals.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of hosting Thumbtack's first-ever virtual Pro Summit event. It was an opportunity for Thumbtack leaders to come together with our pros from across the country to introduce our new tools and features based on their feedback. At Thumbtack, pros are at the heart of everything we do. We’re committed to building a product that fuels their growth. That’s also why, earlier this month, we launched our newly expanded Pro Advisory Board with 40 pros across 16 service categories, from HVAC to general contracting to carpentry and more. https://lnkd.in/g9Vv4NiE A big thank you to all who joined us, including some of our Pro Advisors, who shared their unique insights to help our pros leverage Thumbtack as the best investment they can make to grow their business! #Thumbtack #Pros #SmallBusinesses #sales #service #winning
