# Respond to opportunities

> Find buyer requests and submit listings that meet them.

An **opportunity** is a buyer's request for listings that meet stated requirements. Where a listing
starts with supply you have, an opportunity starts with demand a buyer has. You answer one by
submitting a listing, and the buyer buys it through the normal checkout.

Opportunities need [Tier 2](/sell/tiers). Tier 1 vendors can open the **Wanted** side of
**Browse marketplace** but see a preview with an upgrade prompt instead of the requests.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Browse open requests">
    Open **Browse marketplace** and switch to **Wanted**. It lists the open requests your
    organization can see: public ones, plus those you were invited to. Filter by domain and asset
    type, and sort by deadline, most recent, or title. Selecting several asset types matches
    requests that accept any of them.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create or choose a listing">
    Open a request to read its requirements and submission deadline. Choose
    **Create a new listing** to start a listing for it, or **Submit an existing listing** to pick one
    of your organization's listings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit to the buyer">
    The buyer sees your submission once the listing is live, and gets a notification naming your
    organization and the listing. A draft or checking listing becomes visible to the buyer after it
    passes [quality checks](/sell/listings/quality-checks) and goes live. If the buyer chose quality
    checks for the request, your listing is also run against them and the buyer sees the results.
  </Step>
</Steps>

A listing you submit only to opportunities can stay private: it is live for those buyers without
entering the public catalog. See [visibility](/overview/glossary#visibility).

Opportunities are not anonymous the way listing sales are. Each request shows the buyer
organization that posted it, unless the buyer posted it anonymously, and the buyer sees your
organization's name on everything you submit.

A request stops taking submissions at its deadline, or earlier if the buyer closes it. Listings
already submitted stay accessible to the buyer.

## Earlier project opportunities

Project opportunities, where vendors applied with priced offers, are retired. Your past offers and
any resulting projects are read-only under **Projects**.
