I recently chatted with Eric Athas about what it takes to foster innovation among teams for a Harvard Business Review story. We talked a lot about Thumbtack’s product evolution, and the importance of delineating invention and optimization efforts so that we can manage them distinctly. Innovation is about inventing new things--going from zero to one. Optimization is about improving what we already have to keep making the experience better or attracting more customers. These are distinct efforts that require being managed and operationalized differently. This has enabled us consistently drive growth in the business while also creating space to be more creative and more ambitious as we build the one app to care for your home. The article also features great insights from other industry experts like Carter Busse of Workato, Melanie Frank of Capital One and Arvind KC of Roblox.

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. Check out the full report here: https://lnkd.in/eeWYfd79 #Thumbtack #GenZ #SkilledTrades
Inspired by social media, Gen Z is increasingly drawn to the skilled trades.
