Frequently Asked Questions

How is Connect 1to1 different from other B2B platforms?

Unlike traditional directories or listing platforms, Connect 1to1 focuses on quality matches rather than quantity. We don't allow public browsing of profiles, ensuring your business information remains private until a match is made. Our sophisticated algorithm creates personalized matches based on multiple compatibility factors.

Is my business information kept private?

Yes, your profile information is kept completely private. There is no public directory, and your profile is only visible to businesses that have been matched with you. This ensures your business information is only shared with relevant, potential partners.

How much does it cost to use Connect 1to1?

Registration is free for both vendors and retailers. Vendors can upgrade to paid plans to access premium features such as viewing retailer profiles, scheduling meetings, and using advanced messaging. Retailers can use the platform for free, including receiving matches and responding to vendor inquiries.

How long does it take to get matched?

Match timing depends on the specificity of your profile and the availability of compatible businesses on the platform. Most users receive their first matches within 1-2 weeks of completing their profile. The more detailed your profile, the better and faster your matches will be.
