Understanding and Using the Doer Plan

This guide explain what the Doer plan offers, how it works, and key considerations to keep in mind.

What is the Doer Plan?

The Doer Plan is the perfect launchpad for aspiring independent talents offering a carefully curated entry point into the Hourspent marketplace. Tailored for beginners, starters and those testing the freelance waters. Choosing this plan guarantees access to level two freelance work opportunities on Hourspent Marketplace. It provides the essential tools, guidance, and access needed to take your first confident steps in the talent economy. Whether you're a student seeking flexible work or a fresh graduate, the Doer Plan removes traditional barriers to entry with its beginner-friendly structure, work opportunities, and supportive resources.

Key Features of the Doer Plan

  1. No Free Credit
    • Freelancers do not receive free credits simply by choosing the Doer plan.
    • However, you can earn free credits when individuals you invite to Hourspent have their freelance applications approved or you purchase credits.
  2. No Credit Roll Over
    • Any unused free credits for the month will not roll over to the following month. Use them within the given period to maximize their value.
  3. 20% Service Fee
    • A 20% service fee or commission is charged on all earnings while on the Doer plan.
  4. Smart Proposal Credit Usage
    • Free credits are deducted only when you submit proposals.
  5. Interview Scheduling
    • Schedule interviews to have your area of expertise, communication abilities, and problem-solving skills assessed.
  6. Project Alerts
    • Receive notifications about available projects every weekend to help you stay updated.
  7. Profile Upgrades
    • If your freelance application is approved, your profile will automatically upgrade to Level 3.
  8. Marketplace Access
    • Submit proposals for Level 2 projects in the Marketplace upon application approval.

How the Doer Plan Works

  1. Application Process
    • Choosing the Doer plan does not guarantee that your freelancer application will be approved.
    • The application process includes steps such as completing your freelancer bio, providing identity verification, showcasing your portfolio, and specifying your area of expertise. Skipping any of these steps can negatively affect your application’s approval.
  2. Vetting Process
    • All applicants undergo a thorough vetting process. Selecting the Doer plan does not bypass or reduce the requirements for approval. Meeting all the stipulated requirements is essential to improve your chances.
  3. Earning Credits
    • You do not automatically receive credits with the Doer plan. Credits can either be purchased or earned through referral activities, such as inviting others to join Hourspent and having them successfully complete their applications.
  4. Interview Scheduling and Cancellation
    • Freelancers on the Doer plan can schedule interviews. If you decide not to proceed with a scheduled interview, you can cancel it before the interview date and choose a new date.
