Testimonial - January 3, 2007

Good Morning DesignQuote,

My name is Christopher McCranie and I have a small, talent driven design firm in Jacksonville Beach. Recently we decided to explore the "on-line World of lead generation", and I'm pleased to say we have found one we like very much - DesignQuote.net. With our first bid we were able to secure a project that fit our firm perfectly. Not only was it wonderful for us, but the client was thrilled as well - their exact words, "we're so glad we found you". That's the real beauty in what your company does - bringing people together.

Thank you for the wonderful service you provide all of us thoughout the United States. I have been extremely impressed with your professional business service and customer support - especially with Joe, the account representative we spoke to yesterday. He not only answered all our questions, but offered some additional ideas as well. You can be proud of your company and the people who run-it everyday. We're ready and commited to work with DesignQuote as our exclusive on-line leads service.

Sincerely,
Christopher Adams McCranie

New Site Changes the Way Designers and Programmers Find Work

DesignQuote.net allows for designers to concentrate on doing what they love and not have to worry about marketing their services. The site delivers an average of over 10 new projects every day to thousands of graphic and web designers. It's changing the way designers do business.

While there are many sites on the web that post projects, they are almost all exclusively bidding war sites. A project is posted and designers place bids, the next designer trying outbid the last. Then the site takes a percentage of the final price. This ebay model of web design projects leaves a lot to be desired.

DesignQuote changes the way design projects and designers come together, in ways that benefit both the client and the designer.

Our web sites allow clients to post their jobs free. Clients set a budget range when posting the job, so designers can pick jobs that match their level of experience and ability. Designers browse the projects and purchase just the leads they want to bid on. Once a project reaches it's limit of bids no more bids are accepted.

Traditional bidding sites push users to bid lower and lower, this lowers the value of the industry as a whole. Just like any other service industry, you get what you pay for. The lowest cost provider is usually working cheap for a reason. With DesignQuote.net clients choose a budget range, then designers can decide if they want to bid on the project. All bids are private between the provider and the client. Designers and programmers are not all trying to outbid each other, they can concentrate on quality of their work being the determining factor in winning the project.

Unlike other websites, we do not charge a commission or a percentage on projects. All we do is offer the lead and give you an opportunity to bid on the project. Designers can keep the client for life.

Clients can choose to receive bids from up to 9 providers, unlike traditional sites which can receive 40 or 50 bids on a project. With that much competition for a single project a client can get overwhelmed trying to wade through 40 vague proposals. Designquote.net delivers a handful of select proposals, and since the designers are paying for the leads, the clients are getting a quality bid on the job. As opposed to traditional sites where members will effectively bid on every single project without even reading the description and just hope to get picked by shear volume.

DesignQuote.net is owned and operated by Vexcom Internet Solutions in Atlanta, GA. Vexcom runs several design related websites and popular web portals such as FreelanceDesigners.com, InteractiveWebSites.com, Event Planners Directory ###
