If this is your first time accepting a case, you may have a headache facing various platforms for accepting cases.
don’t worry! This article will give you a simple and easy to follow guide.
I will help you prepare for your first case acceptance and compile the current 2024 Taiwan case acceptance platform recommendations, including free and paid case acceptance platforms.
Finally, I will also include my honest reviews of using these platforms. Let us continue to read~
Preparation before taking on the case
Before you start taking on a case, you'll need to do some preparation.
Make sure you have the appropriate skills to take on the case
There are many jobs to be accepted, whether it is helping others create web pages, serving as a community editor, or graphic design, etc., each job requires different skills.
If you are a designer, you need to master relevant design software.
For example, you will need to have Photoshop, Illustrator and other drawing software to work.
In addition, if you are a social agent, you may need to have good copywriting skills or data analysis skills, etc.
So, if you want to take on case work, you need to know your expertise first.
You also need to make sure that you have the corresponding skills. Finding your own position to take on cases will be the most important thing!
Past case experience and portfolio compilation
After confirming that you have the corresponding skills, it is recommended that you look for your past experiences or works and compile them into an online portfolio.
There are many benefits to compiling a good portfolio. It can make people understand all your experience more intuitively, and it can also convince the owners that you are indeed capable in this field.

I will write a more complete article later, sharing with you the preparations that need to be made before taking a case based on my own experience. Today I will focus on the recommendations of the case acceptance platforms.
Recommended case-taking platforms
There are many different platforms for taking cases, which may be confusing for people who take on cases for the first time.
Today's article will help you to simply organize the current recommendations for Taiwan's case-taking platforms, so that you can have a clearer understanding of the attributes and requirements of each case-taking platform.
Manpower website
1111 Outsourcing Network is a completely free outsourcing network.
Whether the owner issues a contract or accepts a case, it is free of charge. After uploading the work in my case acceptance center, you can submit the proposal to the owner.
Actual use experience: I have not used this, so I have no actual comments. Anyone who is interested can try it out for themselves!
104 had an outsourcing network before, but now it seems that the 104 outsourcing network has been closed.
However, I still recommend that you go to 104 to find a case.
In fact, if you directly search for the keyword "outsourcing case" for job vacancies, you still have a chance to find good cases!
Actual usage experience: You can also choose the operation method"part time","Remote work"Use these filters to find good projects. For example, I recently found a good gourmet restaurant project above.
Case receiving platform
In addition to general marketing, design, etc., Daren.com has more diverse sources of business.
Whether it's interior decoration, personal health coaching, cleaning services, etc., we have it all.
You will need to pay for quotations to obtain customer information. The entire platform operates on a point-based quotation basis.
I used to find people through Pro360 beforeunlock, hahaha, and his service is also pretty good. I recommend it to everyone.
Actual usage experience: People who are more budget conscious may want to pay more attention to setting the upper limit of the deduction budget.
Because Pro360 will have the problem of constant deductions. For example, the payment will be deducted once the other party opens a quotation letter, and the payment will be deducted once you make a quotation.
As stupid as me, there was no special setting at the time, and more than 1,000 was deducted casually. The experience was not very good QQ.
So those who need it can do their own research on setting a budget cap.
It is the predecessor of 518 Outsourcing Network. Owners can post contracts for free, but case recipients need to pay a membership fee to view case information.
The case-taking fee is divided into 388 yuan/month, unlimited value 588 yuan/month, and general 1,300 yuan/month.
However, starting from January 22, 2024, Tasker’s charging method has changed and will be changed to “contract service fee”.
When you complete the case with the client on the assignment, Tasker will charge a contract service fee of 9% based on the case amount.
However, this does not affect those who have purchased the plan before. For details, please refer toTasker official website.
Actual experience of using Tasker: I thought it was very good to use Tasker before, and I also found several long-term business owners on it.
Tasker's monthly subscription allows unlimited quotations to owners, and you can also check the owner's information on it. Overall, the quality of the owners is very good!
However, I haven’t actually used Tasker after the charging method has been changed. I will come back to share my experience with you after I do!
Facebook groups
In addition to job banks and other online case-taking platforms, Facebook groups also have many case-taking groups worth exploring.
The biggest advantage is that all proposals are free, and here are a few community links for your reference.

[SOHO/Outsourcing] Communication | Network | Case taking | Case cafe
Practical experience: When using Facebook groups to accept cases, you will need to be very prominent or eye-catching.
Because the club is free, everyone will try their best to make the works awesome and fancy.
If you don’t have any features on it, it will most likely be washed away by the printer and no one will notice you!
So if you want to post text on it, be as creative as possible!
PTT Forum
PTT Part Time (fewer cases)
Practical experience: You can only post once a year using the PTT Soho version. The board rules state that if you want to re-post your introductory post, it needs to be at least one year away from the last post. Therefore, if you are a novice, I suggest you prepare it first. All your complete portfolio will be posted again!
Foreign case receiving platform
There are also other foreign case-taking platforms with more opportunities. If you want to give it a try, here are the following:
- Fiverr: Suitable for novices and part-time case takers, focusing on cheap and fast small jobs, the starting price is usually very low, and the competition is fierce.
- Upwork: More suitable for full-time freelance workers, the mode is bidding competition, the price range is wider, and it is easier to have long-term large-scale projects
How to choose a suitable case-taking platform
Once you have ensured that you have the necessary skills, it’s time to find the right platform to take on cases.
Of course, if this is your first time taking on a case, you may be a little overwhelmed.
But don’t worry, there are some simple steps that can help you find the best platform for you:
Read the introduction to the case-taking platform
After you determine your needs, you need to start reading the introduction to the case-taking platform.
There are many case-taking platforms on the Internet. You need to compare the characteristics of each platform and understand their charging models before deciding which case-taking platform to use.
I would suggest that friends who are just starting to take on cases can first use a free case taking platform, such as Facebook or PTT, and at the same time understand the outline of the entire market on the platform..
For example, what kind of services does the client usually provide, the price, and the length of the portfolio, so that you can make adjustments later!
Observe user reviews of the case-taking platform
After you read some platform introductions, you need to observe user reviews, which is a very important indicator.
Because it can tell you whether the platform is really reliable, can provide you with the services you need, or reflects the real market.
For example, if there are owners in Facebook groups who offer lower contract amounts, many users will leave comments below saying that the amount is too low. At this time, you can understand the real market conditions of the cases!
Regarding my own experience, I personally prefer to use Facebook groups + PTT soho to receive cases.
Firstly, it’s because the club is free. (Yes, it’s such a superficial reason!)
Secondly, as I said just now, I think there are many cases accepted by these two sides, and they are relatively transparent in terms of quotations and portfolios.
This will be a relatively fair market, and it is a good training ground for newbies taking on cases!
in conclusion
We’ve discussed preparing for your first case and how to find the right platform to take on your case.
Taking on cases has always been an interesting concept, and for me, while having the pleasure of being your own boss, you also need to be careful and build your own personal brand and good reputation.
Therefore, no matter what platform you use to receive cases,Owner-centered thinking will be the key to being a successful case taker, when you can understand the needs of your owners, you can better respond to their needs and provide excellent service.
This matter is actually very critical for accepting cases. It helps to establish a good reputation on the case accepting platform and attract more owners!
Finally, although there are many choices for case-taking platforms, the important thing is to choose a case-taking platform that suits you, and continue to work hard during the case-taking process to achieve good results on the case-taking platform and gain more attention from property owners.
I hope it can be of some help to you who want to start taking cases for the first time. Let’s work together on the road to taking cases!

Want to take on more cases? Start by writing an email!
Here’s a secret bonus: in addition to finding cases on the case-taking platform, I recently discovered that running an e-newsletter is really helpful! Not only can you share your work and expertise, but you can also slowly build up a loyal fan base – yes, that’s the concept of letting projects come to you!
Share my little experience with you:
- Sharing my experience in taking on projects through e-newsletters unexpectedly attracted many colleagues to exchange ideas
- After accumulating subscribers, sometimes readers will come directly to ask about cooperation!
- The key point is that after you build your personal brand, you will be less likely to be bargained for your fees (this is very important 😆)
Speaking of this, I know many of my friends will worry: "But I don't have any special expertise... How can I write an e-newsletter?"
don’t worry! I totally understand this feeling ~ I started from scratch myself!
Don’t worry, I started with zero experience and zero background.
I think as long as you are determined to learn and find something you are interested in, you can slowly carve it into a diamond and let yourself shine.
