At FirstPage Marketing, we strive to showcase your team in the best light on your website. To ensure a seamless process when adding new team members to your site, we've created this guide. It will help you provide us with the necessary information and images in the correct format. Adhering to these guidelines will enable us to update your website efficiently and maintain a consistent, professional look.
Image Submission Guidelines
1. Photo Requirements:
- Size: All staff photos should be square, precisely 500x500 pixels.
- Quality: Photos should be high-resolution and clear, without any blurriness or pixelation.
- Composition: To maintain uniformity, all photos should have a similar composition:
- Background: Use a consistent background for all photos. A neutral or plain background works best.
- Facial Position: Faces should be clearly visible, with the team member looking directly at the camera. A standard headshot from the shoulders up is ideal.
2. Naming Convention:
- Single Location Businesses: Name the image files as
FirstnameLastname.jpg (e.g., JohnDoe.jpg). - Multiple Location Businesses: Include the location in the filename as
LocationFirstnameLastname.jpg (e.g., DowntownJohnDoe.jpg).
3. How to Resize Images:
- Use a photo editing tool or an online image resizer to adjust the dimensions to 500x500 pixels.
- Ensure the image remains centered and properly cropped.
Text Submission Guidelines
1. Bio and Job Title:
- Bio: Provide a brief professional biography for each team member. This should include relevant qualifications, experience, and a bit about their role in your company.
- Job Title: Clearly state the official job title for each team member.
2. Formatting and Submission:
- Submit the text in a standard document format, such as Microsoft Word or Google Docs.
- Clearly label each team member's bio and job title with their name.
3. Additional Information:
- If applicable, include any other relevant information such as certifications, awards, or special achievements.
Submission Process
1. Collecting and Organizing:
- Gather all images and text in one folder.
- Ensure all files are correctly named and formatted as per the guidelines.
2. Sending to FirstPage Marketing:
Once everything is ready, you can either upload all of the images and documents into the shared folder that we have shared with you, or you can send us a link if you have it in your own cloud storage.
Create a Ticket and let us know you have staffing updates and where to retrieve the images and text.
In your ticket, please specify any special instructions or requests regarding the team member updates.
