99designs is an online marketplace that connects companies needing graphic design work with freelance designers. Designers from around the world submit concepts and compete for design projects posted by companies. Companies post their design brief, budget, and deadline on 99designs. Designers then submit concepts from which the company selects a winner. This provides companies access to a global pool of design talent while allowing designers to showcase their work and gain new clients. 99designs generates revenue through contest entry fees from both companies and designers. It has grown to become the largest online marketplace for crowdsourced graphic design.
