CreativeHub.com Launches to Connect Businesses with Creative Talent
In today’s virtual world, connecting businesses with freelance creative talent has become a premium for the web 2.0 marketplace. CreativeHub.com, an online freelance marketplace for creative talent, bridges these needs by connecting freelancers to businesses and advertising agencies better than ever before. Connections are optimized by the user’s merit-based rating, which is based on unique algorithms developed by award-winning Wharton Business School statistics professors.
Since launching in February 2008, CreativeHub.com has already attracted 500 members and counts Unilever’s AXE men’s grooming products brand as one of its first clients.
“CreativeHub.com is a unique marketplace that combines the best of job boards, social networking sites and online communities in a way that benefits both freelancers and businesses,” said Neel Premkumar, founder of CreativeHub and current Wharton MBA student. “CreativeHub.com provides businesses with superior ways to create advertising campaigns, post freelance projects, and hire talent.”
Unlike other freelance websites where projects are chosen based on cost- bidding, the rating system on CreativeHub.com is merit-based; using client feedback, the success of the campaign and peer review metrics. This system allows creative talent to be judged on quality rather than cost, while offering businesses a broader range of high level proposals to choose from. Businesses can search for freelancers on CreativeHub.com based on user rating, hourly rate, availability, geography, project experience, and their online portfolio.
CreativeHub.com is free to join for creative professionals. To connect freelancers with businesses quickly and easily, CreativeHub.com offers a slick, easy-to-navigate interface. CreativeHub.com also hosts members’ portfolios and creative work online and provides each person with their own personalized URL to share with clients.
“CreativeHub.com is truly the next level of optimized service for creative professionals and businesses alike,” said Dave Reibstein, co-founder of Shopzilla.com and CreativeHub advisory board member. “With its easy-to-use interface and unique rating technology, CreativeHub.com allows creatives to connect with marketers better than ever before.”
