@samhouston that is correct Sam... A simple use case is a singer song-writer artist has a song that he/she wrote on their guitar or piano. They'd like to get the song fully produced to their liking. They post the rough on Soound.com, set a budget & get producers around the world to create them the record! We've helped film producers score their short films & even helped startups find the right voice for their intro video voice overs!

Hi @corleyh! Soound.com started from a personal need. As a music producer/songwriter I would often call upon other musicians here in LA via my network or craigslist to help "bring to life" my records. Whether it was someone on keys or if I needed a killer guitar solo or even an engineer. The process of finding someone to play exactly what I wanted ended up being a challenge. I often went through multiple who were talented but couldn't give me what I was looking for musically, yet I would still have to pay them for their time. That's obviously frustrating & ultimately became the genesis of Soound...

Having used 99Designs before in the past, I found the model to be very efficient & tackled the problem I was facing in music head on! I ask for what I'm looking for musically, set a budget of what I'm willing to spend & then in comes submissions from all over the world of exactly what I'm looking for. No longer do I have to waste time searching around & posting on Craigslist, wasting time & money. The reception has been awesome & we're moving forward with new features as we speak to improve the overall experience for the music community at large!
