What Is a Profile Card vs. a Full Profile?

On the CompassPlus website, every agent has two types of visibility: a Profile Card and a Full Profile Page. These serve different purposes, but both help promote your brand and connect you with potential clients.


🪪 What’s a Profile Card?

Your Profile Card is the compact version of your presence on the site. Think of it as your digital business card.

It appears in:

  • Directory and map searches

  • Regional or location-based pages

  • Team or specialty listings

Your Profile Card Includes:

  • Headshot

  • Name

  • City or service area

  • Designation (e.g., CSA)

  • Link to your full profile

Cards are uniform and designed to keep search results clean and skimmable.


📄 What’s a Full Profile?

Clicking on your Profile Card opens your Full Profile Page. This is where you can showcase more about who you are and what you do.

Your Full Profile May Include:

  • Full-length bio

  • Certifications and specialties

  • Service areas and locations

  • Embedded videos

  • Review widgets or testimonials

  • Contact form and/or external links

This is your opportunity to tell your story and differentiate yourself from other agents in the network.


🔄 How Do I Update My Card or Profile?

You can request updates or enhancements at any time through the Support Portal. Depending on the request, a small service fee may apply.

If you’re not sure where your update will appear (card vs. profile), just submit a ticket through the portal and we’ll guide you from there.
