		<description><![CDATA[Really interesting article. I like the breakdown made. But personally I am on the fence with the whole crowdsourcing thing. I prefer to go to the numerous no-frills logo design websites online such as www.logobee.com, www.logodesignstation.com, logoyes.com, etc. which are actually great in getting a professional logo design at a fraction of the price and minus the risks of crowdsourcing (plagiarism is one of them). Seeing that there are no consultation services, the price is significantly lower than that of conventional design firms. For instance, I have tried http://www.logodesignstation.com and the experience was indeed a positive one. I managed to get my business logo design at an affordable price and the turnaround time was great as well. Highly recommended.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the great analysis! 
For sure marketing is key and transaction fees are not a minor issue.
I agree with Karol that you can kill the business by competing with price. 
Also, other income sources, such as ads and subscription fees are important.
Differentiation strategy is more viable than the pricing one.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[in my opinion the idea is great, and this is obvious that you need a scale to crush break even point, though the prices are low so they partially are killing the market. i don&#039;t see any problems in raising fees to make the business model more profitable are proposing higher stakes to get the best from the crowd of graphics :)
