Research into the Companies providing similar services...


http://www.creative-cin.co.uk/

CIN is a creative site very similar to what we are planning to go for. It gives people the ability to put up their contact details and search for new jobs if they are put up on the site.

Events, training and news about the creative industry are also on the website.

It supports the creative industry, and helps individuals to share skills and get jobs they want.

We provide services to help individuals build the relationships they need to be successful – relationships with other creatives, with customers, suppliers, funders and others. In a sector where many people work alone, or in small organisations, CIN plays a vital role bringing people together, sharing information and skills, and providing support and inspiration.
