New Upgrades For Designers!
Tuesday 3 January 2012 | Jessica KornfeindWe released the first part of our big announcement earlier in the week on our Designer Facebook page. Part one of the announcement was that designers will now be able to receive donations from project holders!
Project Holders can now give designers donations to show how much they appreciate their hard work. We wanted to be sure even if you don’t win a project, there is away you can be awarded!
Please note: Soliciting project holders for donations will result in losing any donation you may have received.
Part two of the announcement is a big part! We are introducing the Super Designer program.
What is a Super Designer?
A Super Designer is a MycroBurst designer who wins 12 or more contests in a 3 month period. To award them for their hard work and efforts, their payment processing fee will be cut in half!
Instead of the typical 10% fee, Super Designers will only be subject to a 5% payment processing fee of their winnings!
How can a designer become a Super Designer?
Participation in projects is the key! Four times a year, MycroBurst will count how many wins each designer has. To become a Super Designer, a designer must win a total of 12 contests in a designated 3 month period. Their payment processing fee will be reduced to 5% for the next 3 months. See below for an example.
To keep the Super Designer status, they must maintain 12 wins over the following 3 months. Super Designers must have no copyright/trademark violations. MycroBurst will evaluate each designer to see if they’ve made it into the Super Designer status.
.When will I see the 5% reduction?
After you’ve successfully won 12 projects in a 3 month period, during the following 3 months you will be a Super Designer. This is when your payment processing fee will be reduced.
Here’s another example:
If from January through March a designer has won 12 projects, for April through June they will have the Super Designer status and have a reduced payment processing fee. At the end of June, the last 3 months will be reviewed again. If they have won another 12 projects, the cycle will continue.
.
We’re excited for this announcement and hope all of you are too!
MycroBurst will individually notify each designer that has reached Super Designer status. They will enjoy the Super Designer status for the first quarter, which includes the months of January, February and March! This will take effect for projects won in the month of January, 2012. Thus, the first payment cycle that will be effected is that of January 20th.
Check out the Super Designer page at MycroBurst for more information!

I have not participated yet, but I am mustering up the courage to step out there. You seem to have alot of support for your designers as well as companies. I look forward to getting involved. Even if I do not win, the challenge will be rewarding. ~ Kerry ~

This is not a very inspiring provision for designer.
First what happen if adesigner wins 12 contest in feb,march ,april.
And what you are awarding is very less and not so interesting for us , better give some prize amount or discount coupons which really works.
Anyway this is just a suggestion…

I imagine you are speaking about our Super Designer program. We’ve actually have been receiving great feedback from all of our designers! Let me just be sure that you’re clear – we measure your wins by quarters … so Quarter 1 would be Jan., Feb., March; Quarter 2 is April, May, June; Quarter 3 is July, August, September; Quarter 4 is October, November, December. For more information please visit our Super Designer page! Thanks!!
