If you've made it this far then that means you've claimed your profile or have been added by a team member, so welcome to Sourcr!
Creating a profile that showcases your hard work and branding lets you stand out in the crowd vs your competitors.
On the left hand-side of your screen you'll find the 'Setting' tab on your options bar as seen below.
From there, you can select ' Edit Profile' where you can complete your profile details - add your contact info, a profile picture and an agency background, you can add your specialisms and an 'About Me' section too!
Images and branding
Profile photo
They say a picture paints a 1000 words, so you want to make sure your profile photo says a 1000 positive things about you.
Photos should be in jpg. Png. Gif or pdf format and less than 2MB in size
Make sure the photo is high resolution, a pixelated poor image is no good for anyone!
Our recommended photo size is 225x 225 pixels
Colour is also recommended, and if you can feature any company branding, that’s great too
Use the image cropper to make sure the positioning is right
And don’t forget to smile!
See an example of a good, professional and personable profile photo below.
Background Image
If your agency’s page hasn’t been claimed and this hasn’t been set it’s important to set your background to capture visitors attention and align with your company brand.
Background photo should display your company logo and branding
Photos should be in jpg. Png. Gif or pdf format and less than 5 MB in size
Make sure again the photo is high quality
Our recommended photo size is 1520 x 400 pixels
Colour is also recommended, and if you can feature any company branding, that’s great too
Use the image cropper to make sure the positioning is right
Here's an example of a great background - professional and branded perfectly to the target audience!
Contact Information
Make sure your name, job title, email and contact number are all up to date. Also, include links to all your professional social profiles, if you don’t have a personal one, we recommend you include a link to company pages.
Role Types and Specialisations
It’s important to be honest here, as your roles and specialisations should align with the placements and reviews showcased on your profile. Selecting roles outside of your skill set dilutes your message to visitors as being a true specialist!
Bio
As digital marketing evolves so does the importance of video. Now 1/3 of all online activity is spent watching video.
A video bio is a great way to introduce yourself to your audience and talk about your skills and experience.
Your About Me section should showcase your experience and the markets you cover. Try to be as detailed as possible here whilst letting visitors know a little about you personally! We recommend 100-150 words.
