Createxplore is so different from a freelancing platform. It connects hobbyist creatives who want to help, with the organisations who need that help. I signed up to Createxplore, because it's full of amazing creative talent and it's a great affordable solution for a small organisation too. The Creators genuinely want to help you out and they often go the extra mile to make sure you get what you need. Since joining I've posted several projects and Createxplore has really helped me to build my brand and to give me the confidence to take my organisation forward.

Createxplore has given me the opportunity to gain experience with REAL clients, which is invaluable when starting out. I'm so glad I signed up, I've already had a few jobs, work for my portfolio, and support is incredibly helpful!

Lucy (Creator)

We started using Createxplore as we have no digital skills whatsoever. Createxplore provides an opportunity for us to find good quality work, quickly and very easily

Rob (Explorer)

I initially signed up with Createxplore just to take a look but I ended up creating a Project right away because of the user friendly website. I immediately got a response from an excellent Creator and have already had some fantastic help from them! I feel a bit more secure with my small business with Createxplore... like I have a little safety net in case there's something I'm struggling with!

Sally (Explorer)

I signed up with Createxplore as I run a self funded charity and felt the mission of Createxplore is a fantastic and unique initiative. I knew the charity would benefit from such service as we are able to find people with specific skills, without the hefty price tag.

Ola (Explorer)

We signed up with Createxplore to work with amateur photographers to both expand their portfolio and for our charity to get some professional photos. As an animal rescue center, good photos are a crucial part of an animal's online profile and are often a key factor in finding a new home!

Eleanor (Explorer)

The reason I signed up to this was to find creative people who do this for a passion. I wanted to find people on the same level who I can build trust with and a good friendly relationship with and hope to do more projects which help each other out.

Amber (Explorer)

Creating a Project was easy, as was contacting a Creator. The result of the Project was amazing and has been met with positive feedback.

Sam (Explorer)

Createxplore is an excellent platform to use if you want a design job, video or anything else that is creative. I used it to produce a video for Dyspraxia Support Group Teesside. The appointed person Jeremy did a fantastic job in creating an engaging video about the group. The site is well recommended.
