Hi,
I recently launched my first e-commerce store and I am very happy with it.
Now got an idea which is totally unrelated to it and will open a separated website for it. This will be very simple and straight forward: I will be selling T-shirts for a very specific target of people, very easy to get started and very scalable. Don't think I will have any problem finding a good t-shirt supplier on Alibaba and marketing will be 100% done via Facebook, overall a much easier business than my first e-commerce site.
One thing however will be absolutely key, and it is for me to find the right Designer for these t-shirts. I am happy to pay quite a bit more than standard prices found for example on Fiverr, but I really need someone who understands the concept of what I look for and also has imagination to create designs related to the topic in question.
Getting the right designer is for me the #1 priority and the key for getting this business to succeed. I posted my requirements on Fiverr and within a few hours I got 30 applicants, I guess if I do the same via Upwork I will get the same result, which is great, however it is not an easy task to short-list the right candidates and pick the right one.
So my question is: is there any sort of website out there where I can start some sort of competition giving some high-level requirements of the first design, and then the candidate send their design to me and I can pick which one to go with and hire?
I don't expect the design to be 100% as I want from the start, but at least will give me a good starting point and understand who understands the concept and I can start working with?
Thank you for your help.
