Excellent presentation, very detailed and focused suggestionsApr 13, 2017

Maria did an excellent job, she is very detail oriented and gave great suggestions on how to improve the ProZ profiles. For me this was more or less the only benefit from my subscription to the Plus package. This does not mean that others won't benefit from the other options in the Plus package, but I am more into small practical things. I hope there is more to come. But to stay on topic, Marias training alone is in my opinion worth the price difference to the Standard package.

Great

Great job Maria, I already implemented most of your suggestions, thank you very much.
