Adding Team Members to Your Forge Website

How do I add team members to my website?

Team Members is an Forge feature that allows you to easily showcase your team on your beautiful Forge website. Each team member profile can include basic contact information (name, title, email, phone), a headshot, a bio, and even a LinkedIn profile link.

Showcasing your team on your website is a great way to highlight the human side of your independent insurance agency. If you’d like to take advantage of this feature, simply send us the information for each team member, and we’ll get the information added to your website.

How to send us team information.

You can send us team information in any editable format, such as within the body of your email, in a Word document or Google Doc, and even within a spreadsheet. If sending headshots, be sure to send the highest quality image you have available and name each headshot file using the team member’s full name (example: Jane-Smith.jpg).

Manually copying team information from your old site.

If you’ve just signed up for Forge and would like us to manually copy and paste team information from your old website during the production process, we can do that as long as the old content is able to be copied and pasted. If the format of the old content is not able to be copied and pasted, we will need you to provide the information to us in an editable format so that we can add it to your new website. If you’d prefer us to manually retype the information to bring it over to your new website, this might need to be scoped as a small, one-time project since we’ll need to dedicate additional resources to complete this work. Project cost and timeline will depend on the scope of work, which we will be able to provide before getting started.

Custom layouts for Meet Our Team and Team Member pages.

Forge is built on a series of best-in-class frameworks and foundational code. However, there are certain limitations in order to help preserve the integrity of the platform and your website. Since creating custom layouts for the Meet Our Team and Team Member pages would impact the core Team Members feature that is part of the Forge platform, we can’t make this change without negatively impacting the platform and our ability to maintain your website long-term. This is why we’re not able to customize the layout or formatting of this feature. However, we will consider your request for future platform enhancements.
