Business trends of crowdsourcing are very exciting for the world of politics.
Crowdsourcing is a way to tap into the collective intelligence of people. It allows you to get the involvement of your target audience & create buy-in through their participation. There are some great business models, such as www.threadless.com, that are worth exploring. The basic idea at Threadless is that customers vote on the T-shirt design they feel should be produced. The incentive of seeing your shirt mass-produced & sold encourages the designer to get people involved in the website so that they will vote for their design.
