Product Description
crowdSPRING Pro will bring the power of creative crowdsourcing to design firms, ad agencies and global brands while ensuring that the resulting work remains hidden from prying eyes. Now Ogilvy can gather ideas from around the globe without the world getting a preview. Now Coca-Cola can get inspiration from creatives in 125 countries without Pepsi getting advance notice. And now anyone, anywhere can tap into global creativity, no matter how sensitive the project.
Market Opportunity
Over 500,000 businesses start every month in the U.S. alone and every one of them needs graphic design of some sort or another. Furthermore, there's an army of talented, untapped creative people in the world just waiting to fill this need and crowdSPRING is the marketplace that brings them together.
DEMO Says
The freelance design world is booming; companies are constantly looking for creative support in logo design. crowdSPRING provides a vetted, secure atmosphere for businesses large and small to post design needs and receive bids from around the world. With crowdSPRING Pro, buyers determine which creatives participate and are able to post more lucrative projects they don’t necessarily want seen by competitors. The real power of crowdSPRING Pro is its potential for white-labeling and its application in other channels such as copywriting, music and product design. crowdSPRING has the potential to transform the way creative business is done — our favorite kind of DEMO company.
