#TradeForDesign — Trade your design or developer skills to travel the world!
#TradeForDesign connects creatives and business owners that want to exchange their services instead of money. We believe that anyone has the potential to change the world, and design can help them to achieve their goals. But, sometimes the people that need the most, don't have enough money to invest in it. That's how the project was born!

Interesting product. I am working on something similar. For people who are looking for alternatives, please give Stay On Skill a go - https://www.producthunt.com/post...
Interesting concept, but what about flight $$$$$$$$? Often the most expensive part of traveling the world is actually getting there. Room and board is nice but I don't think that makes this economical. Thoughts?
@marko_is imo, competition is healthy. Thrive at execution and marketing and that ("copying", which is relative by the way) shouldn't be a problem. On the contrary. Everybody wins: your product, the competitor's, users, hosts.
@marko_is I feel like TradeForDesign is more focused on Devs & Designers. Your thing, which is amazing too, seems to have a broader scope.
@levibostian @marques_ph @dylan36032 Frankly, it's quite flattering, we've seen many copycats so far, I'm just saying personally I don't think it's in a interest of a creator to copy things: It's like cheating on your own abilities. But what's usually common for all copycats is that they just want to make a quick buck. When you build things only for that reason, it's very hard to keep things going.
Anyways, wow! What's with all this entrepreneurial advices that I'm getting haha!? :D Go trade your knowledge and help someone, not me! :)
Take care.
@marko_is it's not about entrepreneurial advice, but how you see it is really up to you. Being first to market, which I don't even know if it's your case, does not mean you'll be the winner. Ask Yahoo.
Was not talking about market or anything like that, but the founder's epistemology behind copying... Interesting and long topic that's for sure.
Hey Hunters! We are super excited to announce our newest project — #TradeForDesign
#TradeForDesign connects creatives and business owners that want to exchange their services instead of money.
Last year we launched For Design and since then we have been traveling the world exchanging design for services or products. We believe that anyone has the potential to change the world, and design can help them to achieve their goals. But sometimes the people that need the most are the ones that don't have enough money to invest in it.
Since we received so many applies from all over the world we decided to expand it and let other people do it too.
