Evaluate Opportunities on Your Hotlist

Businesses are automatically added to your Hotlist when you request information about them. Your Hotlist is where you store and save your favorite opportunities and keep track of your current evaluation progress for each opportunity. You will be asked to create a log-in the first time you add an opportunity to your Hotlist, so that your information can be saved and viewed by you during your next visit.
