What does listing on the marketplace do?

It adds your profile and program to the Experly marketplace so clients who do not know you yet can find you, and it lets search engines index your page. Your share link works whether or not you are listed.

Can I change my profile URL?

Yes. Edit the URL slug in the Landing Page editor. It has to be unique, and you will see a message if the one you want is taken.

How do testimonials work?

You can add testimonials you already have in the Testimonials tab of your profile editor. When clients leave a testimonial after their program, it waits there for your approval before it appears on your profile.

Do I review programs before clients get them?

Yes. When a client completes your questionnaire and pays, their program is built and you get an email. Open it under Programs, edit anything you want, and approve it. The client receives it after you approve.
