Frequently asked questions
What exactly is Action = Matter?
A curated skill network. We connect companies with independent specialists and expert teams for projects, temporary expertise and cross-functional collaboration.
How is this different from a freelance marketplace?
A marketplace shows you everyone and lets you sort it out. We speak to members before they join, and propose only specialists we consider genuinely relevant to your challenge.
How quickly do you respond to a project submission?
Within two working days. In that conversation we sharpen the need, after which we propose matched profiles.
What does it cost to submit a project?
Nothing. Submitting a project and the qualification conversation are free. You receive a transparent proposal before any work starts.
Which engagement models are possible?
Project-based delivery, interim capacity for a number of days per week, advisory on a recurring cadence, or a combined team of complementary specialists. Remote, hybrid or on-site.
Can I request multiple specialists for one project?
Yes. Assembling a small cross-functional team around one goal is one of the most common uses of the network.
How do I join as a specialist?
Apply through the specialist form. If your expertise fits the network we schedule an introduction conversation, after which you receive matched requests.
Is there a public profile directory?
No. Member profiles are shared with a client only in the context of a concrete request.
What happens with the data I submit?
It is used to qualify and match your request. We store only what is necessary and never sell data. See the privacy statement for details.
In which countries do you operate?
The network is international, with its base in the Netherlands. Many engagements are executed remotely; on-site work depends on the specialist and the assignment.
