Getting things done using Crowdsourcing


The challenge to survive in today’s economy is to be able to react quickly to, and respond to, growing or shifting market demands. Creating tailor-made solutions while keeping the structures small and flexible is key to success. So the question is how to quickly find the services that will make your project successful without having to hire, invest or take a long-term commitment upfront?

Crowdsourcing can help you solve these questions:
  • Are you in need of a service, such as creating a new company logo, a new product design?
  • Do you need someone to take care of your company’s inbox, so you can concentrate on that new project?
  • Do you have a task to be done but it’s so huge you discarded it beforehand?
  • How to get feedback on your product innovation or on your great idea?
  • Would you like to raise some extra capital without having to go through the tedious demands of the banks?

In the last years websites have emerged for all kind of services, allowing you to reach crowds of designers, investors, and many others. This is the beginning of a new economy, shifting from classical well-defined enterprise organizations to more global, fuzzy ones that can access a vast pool of resources on demand.

Come and learn how to get projects done using crowdsourcing and crowdfunding.
