ADDITIONAL MEMBERSHIP DETAILS
All Paid Levels
- Access to Exclusive Articles begins immediately after enrollment.
- Benefits reset each year and do not accrue.
- Rates are subject to change with periodic increases.
- You can manage your subscription (membership) through your account at any time including updating payment, changing level, or canceling renewal.
Pro Members (Individuals)
- Pro memberships are for individual professionals, and do not include business/logo/other benefits. Exclusive data and featured listings are available for additional purchase.
Plus & Premium Members (Businesses)
- Featured listings can be used equally for either featured jobs or press releases. For jobs, the featured listing credits are integrated with your login. For press releases, email the content to us and they are usually posted within 3 business days (and can be embargoed to your date). Learn more about featured listings here.
- If your business is listed on multiple directory pages, your Plus/Premium membership will get your logo and enhanced placement on them all.
- A few top benefits for Plus/Premium members aren’t able to be accessed in the first 24 hours of new membership enrollment. This allows time to complete payment processing.
- The Market Analysis Dashboard access requires manual setup and can take a few days after enrollment.
- Connected seats (sub accounts) for Plus and Premium memberships are self-serve from your subscriptions. We are also available to help you get set up. These sub accounts have all the same accesses as the main account (except managing sub accounts) including ability to use your membership’s featured credits – your pool of credits is available to any sub account. If you would like to give team members the same access but without the featured credits, please contact us to set that up.
