"I couldn't come up with this many unique design concepts on my own. For a very affordable price I am able to get a ton of ideas and either work with the designer to provide final files that meet my discerning needs or simply buy the design and play with it myself. Massive amount of value." - Paul

'I was shocked because to get the name we were using we went through a very expensive and lengthy process both with the design agency and a legal team to make sure we wouldn't have a problem with the name.' Jacob explained. 'Guess it was my rookie mistake.'

Jacob was given 6 months to completely rebrand his company. The name, the story, the packaging...everything.

We needed a fast process for the new brand. I knew I didn’t want to go back to an agency because it was just too expensive and the process ended with us violating a trademark. And frankly I didn’t like the name suggestions they provided. We had an internal brainstorm to come up with some concept names but none of them stood out. I had used freelance sites like Upwork and Freelancer but I was drawn to crowdspring because of the process for getting a lot of great name ideas from real creative people and I only paid for the name I selected.'

'When we launched the new brand we heard back from our retail locations that praised us for a name that customers really couldn’t forget. It was unique enough and easy to say that it become memorable. The locations have been having fun telling customers that they can spell it forward or backward and it pronounces the same.'

'I have been using crowdspring consistently for 10 years. Crowdspring brings 10 maybe even 100 times more creativity than simply working with a single random creative I could have found outside of crowdspring where I might only see a couple different concepts. And the price is very affordable. If I were to go to a packaging company for this type of work it would have been a $10,000 minimum retainer.'

design, a more cohesive look and stronger branding. Although she wasn't an artist, she had some ideas for what she wanted and needed help executing those ideas.

According to Asia Biard, 'all of the designers were really easy to work with and they did an amazing job of taking my ideas and turning it into reality. I loved all the designs submitted so much that I ended up buying 2!'

"I got a TON of excellent designs in just a matter of days. It's so hard to pick just one, but it's way better to work with multiple designers and get multiple options. The process of getting submissions and providing feedback helps to refine exactly what I want, and I feel I get an exponentially higher quality of design using the crowdspring process. I had much more control over what I get by working with multiple designers, and designers try harder because it's a competition"
