Lafango: Marketing Your Talent to the World
For an example, let's say that there's an unsigned band somewhere in the middle of Ohio who wants to post some videos to the internet to hopefully get noticed by some record labels. What options do they have? Sure, there are plenty of media sharing sites (YouTube, Facebook and Bebo to name a few) but posting to these sites is almost the equivalent of throwing a needle into a haystack. The problem is that most online communities are simply too big for talent to compete with all of the other media, and they are shut out. This is why it is important for talent to find smaller, more focused, online communities to post their media and help get noticed by the right people. Lafango, originally known as TalentTrove, was created for the purpose of making it easier for talented individuals to get discovered. As a talent-focused site, they provide users with a constantly-evolving platform to upload their talent and help market themselves. With tools, such as the Free Electronic Press Kit, users can upload all of their work into a digital portfolio to share with the rest of the Lafango community and distribute to anyone with an internet connection. With the CollabLab, users can collaborate with each other on projects ranging from writing to photography. Lafango also hosts a variety of talent contests, giving their users a chance to compete against each other for a chance to win prizes and gain recognition for their work. Some examples of contests which are currently being held include: -The 2010 Online Battle of the Bands -Miss eWorld International Online Beauty Pageant -Bollywood Singer 2010 -2010 "Beyond Oil" College Essay Competition Clearly, Lafango provides talented individuals with the tools necessary to get your talent noticed.
