Authored by Alec Lynch, DesignCrowd co-founder & CEO

When people think of crowdsourcing, they often think of it as a tool for entrepreneurs and small businesses – and they’re right. Small business users have powered explosive growth of crowdsourcing services in the last 5 years (from stock photography to logo design crowdsourcing). What many don’t realise is crowdsourcing is being used more and more by the world’s biggest brands, governments, politicians and celebrities.

A SUNBURY graphic designer could soon play a key role in ensuring a well-known Queensland federal MP is returned to parliament later this year.

Mr Rudd used a breakfast television show last month to announce the winner, which featured the emblazoned slogan 'Its Our Ruddy Future'. 'I wanted the design to be iconic but also easy to read and relate to and the slogan was a very important part of that,' Mr Marchewka said.

If you're thinking about getting a logo designed, what steps do you need to take and where do you go for design services? Small businesses and start-up entrepreneurs have a universe of options available thanks to the online design boom but which one's right for you?

Don’t under estimate the power of logo design to help your business get customer cut-through when the marketplace is crowded and every brand is competing for customer mindshare. An awesome logo design tells the world who you are and is a strategic business asset. Your logo encapsulates your business promise in a single graphic so it pays now to apply some brainpower to what message it should communicate to the world.

Thinking Of Self-Publishing? Ben Galley Has Some Advice

For self-publishers to achieve a professional cover, that’s quite difficult unless you’re actually a graphic designer. If you find yourself thinking that you can design a cover in Word or PowerPoint, hire someone else to do it.

A cheap way to commission a cover, Galley said, was to use crowdsourcing sites like Crowdspring or DesignCrowd. Authors post a brief to the site and designers then submit covers for consideration. When the author has decided on the best submission the site handles payment and contracts.

Screw the mining boom, let’s create a tech boom

09 Oct 2012 | The Sydney Morning Herald
'
Authored by Alec Lynch, DesignCrowd co-founder & CEO

In recent weeks Australian politicians have been bickering about the mining boom. “It's over, it's half-over, it ended last week (China put the kibosh on it).” Who knows? The only thing that is certain is that one day it will end. It's time Australia started planning for its future. It's time to start planning our next boom and, in my opinion, it's time to create a technology boom.

Technology, without doubt, is where Australia should place its next bet. While the mining boom splutters and fracks Australia up, technology is gaining momentum. Aussie geeks from Sydney to San Franscisco are cooking up world-changing start-ups and Australia is experiencing a mini tech-boom.

Young Australians do not want to make their fortune by drilling the ground, selling minerals to China and taxing fat-cat mining magnates. Young Australians want to make their own fortunes and the best way for them to do this is through entrepreneurship and technology.

More than 5,000 entrants have submitted designs to the latest DesignCrowd contest.

Using the innovative Sydney-based DesignCrowd crowdsourcing service, TimesSquare.com, has offered up a $10,000 prize for anyone who can provide a new logo for the New York-based website. TimesSquare.com is a site that covers nightlife, dining, and entertainment going on in and around Manhattan, and judging by the old logo still on display at the web site, it looks like company really needs a new one.

Speaking on the landmark contest, DesignCrowd CEO Alec Lynch said, “We believe TimesSquare.com’s $10,000 prize was the largest ever for an online logo contest and one of the first design crowdsourcing projects to receive over 5,000 entries. It’s a great case study in design crowdsourcing and highlights the creativity and power of the crowd.”
