What makes a great Bark profile?

A great Bark profile catches the attention of the customer whilst showcasing your business and the services you provide. 

Great Bark profiles include:

  • Up to date contact details
  • A clearly formatted and well written profile description which includes the key points customers should see without being too long.
  • A completed Q&A section. 
  • Images such as a company logo, team photo and product photos.
  • Links to your own business website and social media pages.
  • Videos (if available).
  • Multiple positive reviews from happy customers.

It should also include your contact details so customers can reach out directly if they would like.

We recommend a profile completion percentage of at least 80% to ensure all the key points are included.

Certain sections may be more relevant to some businesses than others, so the profile is designed to be flexible and can be tailored to your own specific business. 

It is great to aim for a 100% completed profile, however in practice this is rare. As long as your profile includes all of the key points and you are confident it gives the best possible impression of your business, it is not necessary to reach 100% completion.

Yes! We highly recommend it.

Your profile description is a great opportunity for you to explain in your own words what you do and what sets you apart from other businesses in your industry.

A few key things you could include are:

  • A list of the different services you offer.
  • A brief company history e.g how long you’ve been in business etc.
  • What makes you different from your competitors.
  • Your contact details.
  • Any current offers you may have.

Remember, you want to make a good first impression, so:

  • Format your description so it can be read clearly.
  • Space things out and avoid big blocks of text.
  • Make sure there are no spelling or grammar errors.

You know your own business best, so we can’t fill in your profile for you from scratch. 

However, we can certainly help if you need us. Bark’s customer success team is available to help review your profile and provide tips and advice if needed. Contact Bark’s dedicated customer success team here.
