Editor’s note: This article was first published in November 2011. It describes Adtriboo as the platform worked at that time; its model and whether it still operates may have changed.
An excellent platform that brings together companies that need a logo, a web video, articles or video clips and professionals who can deliver them. The way Adtriboo works is simple: the company signs up on the platform, says what it needs and how much it will pay for it, and the professionals get down to work on the project.
Once the work is done, the company picks the project it likes best. In other words, if you have the skills and/or the creativity to design a logo, an ad spot or a web video, you can show what you are worth. For the company that requests the project, it’s a big advantage, because it will have plenty to choose from.
For the professional, there is one clear advantage and one small drawback. The drawback is that you may spend part of your time putting the project together and end up not being chosen, although, it must be said, by looking at the winning project you could work out where you went wrong.
The biggest advantage we see in the Adtriboo system is that it isn’t a contest-style voting system. The choice is made by a company whose only selection criterion is whether or not it likes the end result.
It is certainly a good way to earn some extra money and get your talent noticed. And a company, as we said earlier, will have plenty to choose from.
