Available for Coordinate plans on the Locable Marketing Platform   Whether you’re showcasing partnerships, certifications, or memberships, adding badges provides credibility, builds trust, and visually reinforces your network's strength.  Not only that, when your members appear on other Locable-powered directories your badge will appear automatically with a link back to your website. This is part of our Local Connections**™**  Toolset that automates local cross-promotion and collaboration. **Why Badges Matter** 1. **Boost Credibility**: Displaying badges from respected organizations or industry groups signals professionalism and reliability to your visitors. 2. **Highlight Memberships**: Badges showcase your affiliation with recognized bodies, signaling that your organization meets industry standards or has trusted partners. 3. **Strengthen Relationships**: Promoting your member organizations with badges fosters goodwill and reinforces partnerships, showing support for each other. 4. **Increase Engagement**: Badges often encourage visitors to explore the highlighted organizations, driving engagement and building a broader community. 5. **Increase Your Reach:** Because your members automatically display your badge on other websites you literally appear more places while your members get an additional credibility boost.   ### Adding Your Badges Once you've created the graphic image for your badges, you will need to add them to your Locable account. Do this by going into your Account Settings and choosing Badges. ![](https://help.locable.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-26-2024-06-31-01-8677-PM.png?width=670&height=336&name=image-png-Sep-26-2024-06-31-01-8677-PM.png)   **NOTE**: This is currently a feature in Beta mode and we will assist you with setting up and managing your Badges. Please email us directly at help@locable.com to add your badges. When setting up your Badge, you can also add a URL for it to link to. This link will be the same for every company that displays the badge. ### Applying Badges to Companies Badges are applied to groups of organizations. You can add the badge to the companies by selecting the appropriate [Local Network](https://help.locable.com/how-to-organize-your-companies-causes-crm-using-local-networks?hsLang=en) in **CRM \> Local Networks**. Choose the Local Network that will receive the badge and click 'Edit', then scroll to the bottom and select the badge to apply to the companies in this Local Network.  ![](https://help.locable.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-26-2024-06-34-38-3208-PM.png?width=670&height=235&name=image-png-Sep-26-2024-06-34-38-3208-PM.png) Once selected, click **Save Local Network** to apply the badge to these companies. Your Local Connections will now have this badge appearing on their Business Profile page and the badge will link to your website.  ![](https://help.locable.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-26-2024-07-39-36-8263-PM.png?width=543&height=477&name=image-png-Sep-26-2024-07-39-36-8263-PM.png) By following these best practices, you can effectively integrate badges into your site’s design, creating a professional and engaging web presence that benefits both your organization and your members. -
