Wapiti Prove Open Source Collaboration To Be Successful Model

Dec. 2, 2010 - PRLog -- Wapiti have been working with Leeds based music producer Northern Introvert to help him get the most out of the web in the lead up to his upcoming music release. Along the way, decisions were made to take a slightly different approach in the development of certain aspects of the web campaign which presented some highly positive results.

As a result of using various creative commons licensed products such as fonts and icons, and approaching the creators to provide necessary credit for usage, not only were Wapiti able to receive permission to use such items commercially at no charge, but also offers of collaboration based on purely personal interest were put forward. This has led to a highly successful website being produced not only at a low cost, but at the benefit of helping us to build new relationships with others in our field.

Jack Roscoe, Partner at Wapiti said “I am incredibly happy at how this project has turned out. It has strengthened my beliefs that the web is not the place for aggressive business models. It is evident that today's businesses see the value in collaboration and team work, and how building relationships with others is something that can be a huge benefit in the long run. It is this attitude that will allow small business to live to see great success”.
