"It's simple: ProZ.com exposure to clients keeps helping in finding new clients, while I keep myself busy translating for the existing clients."

Dalia Nour

Since I subscribed as a member, the number of clients have increased and I started to have some other options like being a Certified PRO which is also a plus advantage. I like plus membership because I have the option to watch videos as much as I want in all related fields. Also, I like the included CAT tool CafeTran!

ProZ.com has literally been the catalyst for my entire freelance career over the past decade, providing me with dozens of agency clients as well as tools to obtain direct ones, too.

Carmy Tutino

I have been a member since 2004 and I renew every year. I have been a member of Professional Plus since the first year. I find it's a good publicity for me and Plus offers many services that are quite useful. I also use the terminology. I never look for jobs on their platform, but I receive many requests from potential outsourcers, almost every day, ready to pay what I ask for.

Sanjin Grandić

Sites like ProZ.com work for you 24 hours, even when you sleep. ProZ.com landed me two regular end clients, and I got many other jobs, not to speak about digital exposure. I ask all my clients how they found me and why they selected me, and not someone else. The answer is always the same: my online activity, especially in terminology help, translation contests, etc… ProZ.com alone offers more than 50 features that can help you create yourself and your brand. The sooner you start, the sooner you will start earning experience and money.

Kersti Skovgaard

I've been a member since 2005, Plus member since it started. As it's my only marketing channel I'm quite positive about it. I attended a ProZ.com conference in Eiffel Tower in 2010 and met Henry and other ProZ.com people there. I'll use ProZ.com services for as long as I translate. For me, the most useful function is the Blue Board. All of my clients have come via ProZ.com, both agencies and direct clients, even if not directly via ProZ.com but as recommended by my clients.

In less than a month, I have had more jobs than ever and I have already earned back the membership cost. If you are a quick learner, you will find more work than you can handle in a relatively short time!
