Crowdspring

Posted June 4, 2009 By Caroling Lee

crowdspringCrowdspring is a Web site where creatives are linked up with projects posted by buyers. Buyers list their creative projects with specs and budget and designers respond with a design concept. Designers compete against each other to win the ‘award’ (project budget) based on the concept that the buyer selects.

Pros: inexpensive, decent quality design in a short time frame. Cons: little consultation, guidance or personal relationship. Best for: smaller projects with budgets less than $1000.
