rsieb asked: Hey Jason I pitched Topicmarks on Elegant.ly on Tuesday. Thanks for providing this service. It is a godsend for the crucial Chief Designer position when a startup is close to getting funding.
How much time does it typically take to get responses from designers? And (assuming our pitch was powerful) can we typically expect multiple designer responses or do you filter it down to only one?
My investors are clamoring for a Chief Designer, I want to know if I can count just on Elegant.ly or if I should activate other options.
Thanks for your help!

I don’t track statistics on responses yet, but it’s a feature I’ll be adding. Anecdotally I’m hearing good things and many thanks from entrepreneurs.
I do not filter the designers contacting you, all of our members are free to do so directly via the email address or link you provided.
I make no guarantee that your pitch will compel someone to respond, so you should activate every possible option you can to fill your candidate pipeline. Recruiting is tough! Expect to spend a lot of time on it!
Thanks and good luck!
