1. Sortlist+: why we improved our features and plans?
Sortlist’s vision is to create a platform that helps clients and agencies to connect, collaborate, and succeed, without any limitations or barriers. This vision is centered on providing value, control, and opportunity for all parties involved, and building strong, lasting partnerships that drive business growth and success.
As the marketing industry becomes increasingly specialized, businesses are looking for more specific expertise and services to meet their needs. We have noticed that our pricing model was geared towards "generalists" with memberships for unlimited consumption, which does not adequately address this trend.
This is why we have launched a new and improved Sortlist platform. We are introducing a new pricing model that enables you to position your firm on niche services and only pays for results. This allows you to take the time to understand your client's needs and provide solutions that truly meet those specific needs.
We have aligned our pricing more closely with the value that our agencies receive and ensure you are only paying for what you actually need and want.

Also, this new model helps us drive innovation and growth by focusing on the value that we deliver to you. This helps to foster a culture of continuous improvement, and drive long-term success.
3. What main differences you will experience with Sortlist+?
Greater flexibility and control: you will be able to adjust your investment based on your needs and priorities.
