Role guide questions

These answers help a visitor understand why Service Hub explains the marketplace by role before registration.

Why does Service Hub explain the platform by role?

Because the platform serves different commercial needs. A client publishing demand does not use the system the same way as a service business managing staffing pressure or an independent professional building work pipelines.

Do these role guides replace the industry pages?

No. Industry pages explain trade-specific market context, while role guides explain how the workflow changes depending on the participant's position in the marketplace.

Should a visitor choose a role page or an industry page first?

Either path can work. A visitor may start with the role that best describes their business model, or start with the industry that best matches the work they want to request or deliver.
