INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Konsus is a design marketplace where companies can quickly post design projects that they need for various parts of their jobs, like
employee that might be better spent working on other parts of their job
Some companies have in-house design agencies and so on, and they are 3 or 4 times as expensive as we are, and they typically want to work on
projects like PowerPoint presentations onto the site
of these western firms.Like many other modern services and marketplaces, Konsus hopes to come in at the bottom of a company and work its way
One person or a team from a larger corporation will discover it, start using it and then eventually the startup might track that firm down
and start talking about a custom team and dedicated emails
Then the outsourcers working for that firm goes through a background check, signs confidentiality agreements and goes through training on
corporate branding material
have our own recruiter work with them
We get around 5,000 to 10,000 people who apply, and we accept 10-20 depending on how many we need
to potentially deal with larger consulting firms like Accenture, and there are plenty of startups looking to create an online labor
marketplace that might not be targeting design just yet
the company is going to have to figure out ways to outcompete early.The company has raised $1.7 million from Sam Altman, the Slack Fund,
Acequia Capital, Paul Buchheit, Geoff Ralston, John Collison and Liquid2 Ventures.
