DesignCrowd is proud to announce that in early October we signed up graphic designer number 20,000 (as of today we have 20,311 graphic designers - see our graphic designer directory)! Even more amazing is that these 20,000 designers come from 140 different countries! Most of our designers (65%) come from 'The big 5' - the USA, the UK, Canada, Australia and India - but we also boast design talent from the Philippines, Colombia, Mongolia and Antarctica (yes - apparently they have the Internet there!).
This is positive development for customers, designers and DesignCrowd because 1) a year ago we had only ~3,000
designers (so that's fantastic growth which means we can continue to provide and improve our service going forward) and 2) our design contests are receiving more designs and better quality designs as a result of the increased diversity and competition in our community!
So, to celebrate this milestone we have created a Collage of our 20,311 Designers. It is wicked, check it out.
Also, we created this amazing pie chart (using a tool that most designers dislike - Microsoft Excel):
p.s. to support this growth we need to hire talented people! We're looking for smart people, "go getters", customer service specialists, salespeople and programmers. If you're interested or know anyone please get in touch! It doesn't matter what country you're in - we'll consider applicants from Australia to Antarctica.
