CrowdSpring has set up a virtual marketplace whereby anyone with some digital talent can offer their services and contribute to projects, while those who’ve got works lined up can find the talent to match. On the buyer side CrowdSpring facilitates everything from posting a project to copyrights and escrow. So basically, if you’re a buyer, you post your project and the price you want to pay. From there, contributors from all over will actually start working on your project, and you pick the one that’s right for you. CrowdSpring offers a 100% money back guarantee if you’re not satisfied. Contributors, on the other hand, get to pitch in their work and build their portfolios—they get the job if they’re the best; it’s not a question of contacts or the content of their CV. Contributors also get 15 items registered for free with the international IP Registry to protect their work. For both contributors and buyers there are discussion forums, ratings, and commenting.
