The profile page update allows users to tag the brands and businesses they have previously worked with.
Vimeo Profile Page Updates
In 2019, Vimeo launched a marketplace for businesses platform. The platform is designed to help businesses find and hire creative professionals for video creation projects. With the marketplace platform, professional video creatives have a platform to get hired and paid for their services.

Videos are recognized as an effective way for small businesses to engage with both customers and prospects. Using video as a marketing strategy is gaining traction across almost every industry. With the Vimeo marketplace, small businesses can find and commission professionals to create bespoke videos for different campaigns.
For video creation professionals, the marketplace serves as a valuable place to market their services, find clients, and make money.

The new Vimeo profile page helps video creators sell their services more proficiently. It also helps small businesses find their right person for a video project, thereby saving time and effort.
