We've added a great new feature which allows you to promote, showcase and grow your design business by sharing your unique link to your SampleBoard profile.
By setting your profile to public you gain additional (free!) exposure on the web to showcase your design style via your moodboards, business details and social media accounts to potential clients.
Think of your SampleBoard public profile like your online business card and design portfolio.
Showcasing your name, company, position, business website, city and country, as well as your Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Houzz profiles (you choose how much you want to display).
You also have the option to add an email address that site visitors viewing your profile can use to reach you for work inquiries directly (which can be different to your SampleBoard login creds).
How to set your profile to public
To share or promote your work via social media or directly to a potential client you need to set your profile to public by following these steps:
