Managing Your Profile (For IMC USA Members)

Because this directory replaces our previous system, some of your initial data was migrated from the old member directory. 

Step 1: Opt-In Required

To comply with privacy regulations, you will not appear in the public directory until you give permission. You can opt-out at any time.

To Opt-In to the public directory so your consultant profile will appear in searches, do the following:

  1. Log into the IMC USA Consultant Portal.
  2. You will land directly on the Home – My Profile page.
  3. Scroll to the end of your profile above the Save Profile button (see screen shot below).
  4. Select “Yes” for “List my profile in the public Consultant Directory“.
  5. Don’t forget to click on “Save Profile” to save your opt-in choice.

Step 2: Update Your Directory Information

Your directory listing pulls directly from your membership data.

    1. Log into the IMC USA Consultant Portal.
    2. You will land directly on the Home – My Profile page.
    3. Update your fields. Remember: Your Name, Email, Intro, and Consulting Specialty are the only fields scanned by the directory’s keyword search. Make sure these sections include the keywords clients use to find you! 
    4. Make sure you click on Save Profile to save your changes!
  • Pro Tip: Our directory has three options – search by member type (e.g.  “CMC” vs “CMC Candidate”), location, and by keywords. Our initial user testing of the directory suggests that some businesses may just jump in and search solely using the keywords option of our directory. To maximize your chances of getting found in searches, we suggest that you make sure your location, consulting specialties, certifications, and education are included in your Intro (bio) field as well as in the separate fields for that information in your profile.

Step 3: Upload a Profile Photo

Putting a face to your name significantly increases profile engagement.

  1. In the Consultant Portal, click the My Profile Photo link.
  2. Upload a professional headshot to humanize your listing.
