Your career in advertising deserves a spotlight, but is your online presence doing it justice? With over 250,000 professionals already on Bestadsontv.com, this platform is the ultimate hub for showcasing the world's most innovative advertising campaigns. But here's the catch: an outdated profile could be holding you back from reaching your full potential. Don't let that happen! Follow these 4 simple steps to ensure your Bestads profile is a true reflection of your talent and expertise.
Step 1: Start by visiting Bestadsontv.com.
Step 2: Head to the top right corner, click the dropdown menu, and select 'People'.
Step 3: Enter your name in the search bar and hit 'Search'.
Step 4: If multiple profiles appear, don't panic! Email Ricki Green at rickig@campaignbrief.com with the details, and she'll merge them into one comprehensive profile.
Updating Your Profile: A Breeze!
Want to add a new bio, profile picture, or job title? It's easy! Log in here to make changes yourself, or send the updates to Ricki. No login? No problem! Ricki can set you up with a new one or reset an old account. And this is the part most people miss: keeping your profile updated isn't just about looking good – it's about staying relevant in the industry.
Why Bother Updating?
Your Bestads profile is more than just a page; it's a free, dynamic portfolio that showcases your work to potential employers and collaborators. But there's a controversial twist: an inaccurate profile can hurt your standing in the global Bestads Rankings, which are based on automated credit fields from the weekly 'Best of the Week' competition. By consolidating profiles, you ensure your contributions are fully recognized, keeping your ranking where it deserves to be. Is your name missing from the credits? If so, email Ricki with a link to the work, your full name, and role – she'll take care of the rest.
What's New in 2025?
After valuable industry feedback, Bestads is introducing new ranking categories like 'CEO,' with more on the way. This is your chance to shine in these emerging categories, but only if your profile is up-to-date. Don't let this opportunity slip away!
