IamaSource.com Reaches 20 Thousand Euros Distributed To Talented Designers

June 17, 2011 - PRLog -- IamaSource.com has just met and exceeded the quota of 20,000 euros distributed to designers and creatives who are part of its community. The goal has been reached in less than one year after the online publication of this web site, synonymous of the trust that a lot of startups and SMEs have placed in this innovative project. IamaSource is in fact a platform for entrepreneurs and for those who are looking for creativity for their business (from the creation of a logo, the design of a brochures or business cards until the invention of a successful name for a new business).
The mechanism of the platform is very simple and is based on the crowd-sourcing model (i.e. relying on a crowd of professionals). The customer - be it a businessman, a company or a startup – post a design contest on the website and decides his budget. The designers of the community start to join the contest and present their proposals and uploading them directly on IamaSource. The customer can view the works online and communicate directly with designers through an intuitive interface. At the end of the contest the customer chooses the winner who won the budget and gave all rights of the artwork (as well as the complete files) to the customer.
The budget range from 200 to 1,000 euros, depending on artwork that you want to get and it is always defined by the customer, who deposits the budget at the beginning of the contest to guarantee the designers’ work and creative efforts. Everything is driven by the team of IamaSource, efficiently and above all completely online.
The profile of the winners of these first 20,000 euros - in this first year of IamaSource.com activity - is very interesting. Among them are young creative freelancers, mostly Italians but also communication agencies that come into "play" when budgets are interesting. The reasons are several. Some participate for sheer spirit of competition, others with the aim to improve their techniques through the contest, others to supplement their salary. The result is a community of more than 3,500 designers that literally overflow of creativity of the design contests. Some customers often have to choose between more than 500 proposals for their new company logo.
Important goals for IamaSource.com, a very promising startup in the panorama of the crowdsourcing web companies that is already working on new features for enhancing the efficiency of its platform.
