Welcome to Qwoted!

Qwoted is a global network where everyone has an identity.

Let's walk through the elements of your PR account to ensure that you are getting the most out of your Qwoted experience!


Your Profile

After logging in to app.qwoted.com, hover over your name in the top right corner of your dashboard and select My Profile from the drop-down menu.

Configuring your profile accomplishes two main things:

  1. It tells our media users a little about you. Who you are, what you do, which topics you have expertise in, etc.

  2. It teaches Qwoted which media opportunities are relevant for you and your clients.

Once your profile is configured, you'll begin receiving relevant media opportunities directly to your email inbox.

Your Profile Picture

Adding a profile picture is highly recommended. Media users are 65% more likely to respond to messages from users that have a profile picture.

You can change your profile picture by hovering over the initials avatar on your profile page, clicking "Change" and uploading an image from your device.



Configure your Interests

This is the most important step of setting up your account!

Add the topics your clients can speak to as an expert. This helps the Qwoted system proactively surface relevant media opportunities directly to your email inbox. Spend a few minutes adding topical tags to your profile. You can also do this here: https://app.qwoted.com/my_interests


Employment

Add your current position and company within your profile as well. You can include both your current role along with any previous roles you'd like to highlight.

When adding your Employment information, search the 'Company' field to see if your organization already exists in our database. Be sure to enter at least 3+ characters. If you can't find your organization in the dropdown, simply toggle over to the “Create New” tab and add it to our system.


Add Expert Profiles for your clients

Within your PR account, take some time to create Source profiles for each of your clients to Qwoted. Once a Source profile is created, you can attach that profile to pitches in response to Media Opportunities. The profiles will also be hosted in our central Expert Database. Media users often search our database and reach out to Sources directly, so the more information your client's Source profile contains, the better.

Source profiles are used to highlight an individual's expertise and media experience. Do not create profiles to represent more than one expert or a company. If a Source profile is created incorrectly, it will not appear in the Expert Database.


You can add as many Source profiles to your account as you'd like!

Final Details

To edit and configure further details in your profile, click the Edit button within the grey profile dashboard box in the lower-left corner of your profile.

Add a bio for yourself here:

Add a contact phone number if you like. (This is optional and is only visible to interested media users.)

Leave the "Hide from search engines" box unchecked if you'd like the profile to be publicly searchable in web searches. If you'd like the profile to remain private to the Qwoted network only, simply check this box.

Be sure to click update to save any edits!


Once your profile is configured, you will begin receiving daily alerts to your email notifying you about new, relevant media opportunities. Your profile will also be searchable in our central PR database. Media users can reach out directly if they are interested in hearing from you or any of your Experts.

If you have any questions or run into any issues, please don't hesitate to email our team at support@qwoted.com.

Happy pitching!
