Placing orders

How can I place orders?
There are two ways to place orders for our services:
By using the Self-Service Marketplace (only for text creation, surveys and sentiment analysis)
or by placing an individual order and personal contact (managed service) to our sales team
Which method of ordering is best for me?
In the areas of standardized text creation (with and without keywords), survey tasks and sentiment analysis, it is more advantageous and favorable for you to enter the order using the Self-Service Marketplace.

If you have large, individual projects from any service areas offered, please contact our sales team. They will provide personal advice and discuss the project with you.
