Crowdsourcing for T-Shirt Designs

Posted by on Apr 15, 2010 in Blog, Promotional Products | 0 comments

I don’t think anyone expected crowdsourcing to become as popular and successful as it currently is. It’s the basis for offerings from online t-shirt company Threadless, Apple uses crowdsourcing to develop Apps. And all you have to do is watch one of the many Microsoft commercials on television right now to see how crowdsourcing aided in developing Windows 7.

What exactly is crowdsourcing and how does it work?

How can a company or business use crowdsourcing for promotional marketing? Easy. Let’s say your business wants to buy t-shirts for an event but you don’t have the budget to pay a graphic designer or you want to involve a greater audience in the design. First you’re going to call Quintain Marketing and we’re going to help you set-up a web site or add a page to your web site that outlines your t-shirt contest. Then we’ll help you advertise your needs through social media marketing. Freelance designers will submit their work, you’ll decide which design you like, and we’ll produce the t-shirts for you.
