A Message for Crowdsourcing Fans from PermissionToSuck.com

Creativity is principally the domain of an individual enhanced by great relationships, but just as a properly harnessed horse team can pull harder, the right creative team can produce more consistently powerful messages. That said, teamwork isn’t what crowdsourcing stimulates. Consequently, don’t expect a creative product superior to that which you’d get from a reputable individual or strong creative team. Fluffy the cat will probably fetch your morning paper more often.

Talking with Design Thinker: David Burney, Part I

Many of us are heartbroken. We love artifacts of design: the photo, the logo, the brochure, the packaging.

Crowd Source This

Monday, August 24, 2009

0 Comments

This is a marketer's Public Option: Leverage the intelligence of crowds. Collectively we are smarter that any one of us.
