Agency Profiles Addition of Skills and Portfolios

[lenaellis]

To help agencies better display their expertise and work samples, we are now adding a Skills section and Portfolio section to agency profiles. These sections are optional and can only be edited by agency owners and members with admin permissions. To do so, navigate to “Settings,” then “Agency Profile” within the agency account.

Agencies can add up to 15 skills to their profiles, which will appear underneath the Services Provided section.

Portfolios will be displayed underneath the Work History, similar to how its displayed on individual freelancer profiles. The portfolio section will function as it does on a freelancers page, however, at this time, unlike Freelancer portfolios, items in the agency portfolio cannot be linked to specific contracts. Also, portfolio items added to an agency profile will not be added to agency member profiles, and vice versa.

Let us know if you have any questions about these sections and how they work with your agency.

Hello,

Thanks for the update.

I have two questions:
1)  "Also, portfolio items added to an agency profile will not be added to agency member profiles, and vice versa."
Does it mean that I am not able to show work of my team in my agency portfolio?
So my team is working on projects that we are adding to each personal profile.
And all works are there. 
Based on your previous message - are we able to publish this works in our agency?

2) When I will be applying for jobs using the agency submission - will client see freelancer's portfolio or an agency one? or this will be kinda mixed?

3) Agency portfolio will be displayed only on agency page or client could see it anywhere else?

The portfolio items added to your agency portfolio will show up on your agency profile; however, if this has been added on each of the members of your agency, this will not be added on your agency profile. Same goes with the freelancer profile. If you want a portfolio which is completed by your agency to be showcased on your agency profile, then add it using your agency account.

2) When I will be applying for jobs using the agency submission - will client see freelancer's portfolio or an agency one? or this will be kinda mixed?

If you sent a proposal under the agency, clients will see the agency portfolio. 

3) Agency portfolio will be displayed only on agency page or client could see it anywhere else?

Agency portfolio will be displayed under the agency profile.
