Raising Funds for an App by Providing Web Development Services

Hi guys,

I'm the guy behind Taskwer. Taskwer is a crowdfuding platform which allows people to raise funds for their goals e.g. education, travel, business ventures etc. What makes Taskwer different is that people don't have to ask for donations, instead they can offer services. Services can range from in-person services like tutoring, baby sitting, home repair and online services like writing, graphic design, software development etc.

I've been building this app for some time now, most features have been implemented but there is still a lot of work to do, many features I would like to add but even more importantly, I have to focus on getting users and building community around it. This project has been bootstrapped so far and I don't have a marketing budget for it so I would like to raise $20,000 to take this app to the next level.

Also, raising funds for something and offering services in return is a new concept and with this campaign I want to see if this is a viable concept. I will be my first user and I will see first hand if this is something people find useful or not.
