Founder's Note
After a decade in the creative industry, I found myself asking a simple question: Where does new work actually come from anymore?
Despite strong portfolios and great clients, the process of finding and managing work had become chaotic, with scattered networks, delayed payments, vague briefs, unaccountable parties, and frustrating inefficiencies. And it wasn't just me. Further research made it clear: across the industry, brilliant creatives and clients alike were facing the same friction, a fragmented process.
Then I saw a friend using a closed government tendering system, and the idea hit:
What if the creative world had something like this?
Not just another disguised job board, but a sophisticated workflow tool.
A structured, transparent platform where great work meets serious opportunity…. without the mess.
That's how Tandm was born.
Not a fix, but a framework for a faster, fairer, more connected creative economy to enhance the rate of success.
