**International printing service Saxoprint has launched a free network that connects
charities with professional graphic designers. Saxoprint ProStudio lets businesses
and charities write their own design briefs and have them completed by the selected
designer from amongst the community of agencies and graphic designers.**

 

The platform is designed in particular for organisations that do not have an in-
house graphic department. They can choose to commission advertising materials, printed
products or all of their business stationery.

Charities can search for designers by region, industry, or product specific expertise.
They can send their briefs to a maximum of three designers: this restriction is 
designed to boost the chances of designers receiving a brief. Designers can control
their workload by setting their status to “busy” or “available shortly”.

 

The whole business relationship from briefing through to payment takes place on 
the site.

 

There are no membership or registration fees to use the marketplace.

 

Daniel Ackermann, the managing direct of Saxoprint, commented:
