I used a design contest site (99designs) a little while ago and now really regret it. The design work was great but supporting this model means being complicit in moving the industry towards a terrible set of circumstances for the designers themselves.
How about finding someone's portfolio you like on Dribbble[0] and working with them directly? There's a lot of cool work on display over there and you get to support someone's craft if you go down this route.

- rojcyk 6y agoI know we should refrain from comment's like these, but thank you! I'm fortunate enough to have big enough clientele where word of mouth does most of the marketing for me. But platforms like 99designs do come up often during price negotiation and it makes some of the discussions really difficult.
