December 2025: Our Biggest Month
December 2025 set a new record for Trabahadoor: ₱112,755 in gross transactions — a 70% increase over November and the highest single month in our nine-month pilot.
What Drove the Surge
The holiday season created a sharp spike in demand across three categories:
Housekeeping & Cleaning — Families preparing their homes for Christmas gatherings booked cleaning services at the highest rate we’ve seen. Our cleaners were fully booked for most of December.
Aircon Cleaning & Maintenance — The pre-holiday rush to have aircon units serviced before hosting family gatherings kept our Ref/Aircon workers busy throughout the month.
Event Manpower — Corporate parties, family reunions, and community events drove strong demand for bartenders, kitchen helpers, and event staff.
Worker Earnings Highlight
Several workers crossed significant income milestones in December alone:
- Multiple workers earned over ₱15,000 in a single month
- Our busiest worker completed 18 jobs in December
What This Tells Us
The holiday demand spike confirms two things:
- Seasonal planning matters — We need to have more workers on standby heading into Q4 each year
- Local demand is real — Tacloban residents are actively looking for reliable, verified home service workers and are willing to pay for quality
January Projection
We anticipate a natural slowdown in January as post-holiday spending tightens, but our customer base is now significantly larger heading into 2026. The pipeline is strong.
