The Power of Crowdsourcing

There is a famous old saying that when trying to solve a problem “two heads are better than
one”. Yet until recently, businesses would often rely on one key person to get important
tasks done. But thanks to a phenomenon called crowdsourcing, more and more companies
are allowing their consumers to have their say when designing new products.

The term “crowdsourcing” refers to the process of outsourcing jobs which were once done
by a

single person to a large group (or a crowd) of people. In the past, crowdsourcing wasn’t
practical, as it was impossible to gather thousands of like-minded people together to share
opinions. Now, thanks to the Internet, online forums, and social media, this isn’t a difficult
task at all.

There are many important applications for crowdsourcing in business. For example, if a

small

business was looking to develop a business logo, it might employ a single designer and hope
for the best. However, with crowdsourcing, companies can specify some guidelines about
their project, set a budget, and start a design contest online. Within hours, it will likely
receive hundreds of designers sending them logos.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(7)</span><div class='page_container' data-page=7>

Not everyone is sold on crowdsourcing, though. In many cases, it may be better to rely on
the

opinion of a few specialized professionals than information from a crowd. For instance, it
makes more sense to trust the opinion of one top doctor than to take the advice of 1,000
random people regarding a health issue. Another criticism is the low wage that
crowdworkers usually receive. Since crowdworkers are freelancers and not employees, they
can be paid less than minimum wage. Whether you love or hate crowdsourcing, it appears to
be here to stay. So before you make any financial judgements, consider following the crowd
and give crowdsourcing a try.
