So...it's been a while since we posted here. Update coming soon!
Hi! It's been a while... well, we have made a few changes... and we think you're going to like them! 😎
We have decided to change our model to better serve our Creative users with a more ready-made approach. Creative Gig is now a creative project outsource company that exclusively services creative agencies, studios and internal corporate groups. We take your short-term, fast-cycle creative projects and work as a virtual extension of your agency. Agencies can get their creative projects done right – 100% guaranteed.
What does this actually mean? Glad you asked! We take projects from our clients and get the projects done with our Creatives, which is an exclusive network (only accessible by us). * The Creatives work with our internal Project Managers and Account Executives that work directly with our clients.*
Does this also mean that individual clients (entrepreneurs, lean-startups, etc.) aren't the focus? Well, yes. We only work with agency-level clients that have ongoing, reoccurring projects that need quality creative services.
If you are a Freelancer and wish to be considered for creative projects, please fill out our Freelancer Application. (https://creativegig.com/freelancer-application) We still offer our original app for Creatives that want to service their own clients.
If you are an agency or creative studio and would like to discuss a project, go to www.creativegig.com and click "Start a Project".
If you have a general question, fill out the contact form on the main page of the website or email us at [email protected]
