Our Thumbtack Bucks benefit is one of our favorite perks, which helps employees hire pros for projects big and small. Check out how Brooke Beiermann (she/her), Communications Manager, used her Thumbtack Bucks to hire a pro for her daughter’s nursery. “When we were ready to decorate our daughter's nursery, we quickly realized that DIY was not for toddler parents. I used our Thumbtack Bucks benefit to hire a pro to help us make our dream nursery come to life. They smoothed out the texture on our feature wall, installed board and batten, and then painted the entire room. We could not have made it look nearly as perfect had it not been for Thumbtack!“
