A calmer way to get started
Keep control of what gets posted and who you choose. A planning draft organizes the conversation; your judgment completes it.
Start with an ordinary sentence. Add the task, location, timing, and anything a Helper should know.
Check the planning draft, correct the details, and decide what you are comfortable publishing.
Publish when ready, then compare any responses, profile information, timing, and proposed price.
The idea behind our name
품앗이
Poomasi · a Korean tradition of neighbours helping one another
PoomAt takes inspiration from the spirit of Poomasi and translates it into a modern Canadian marketplace: clients describe what they need, and independent Helpers decide whether they can help.
