Consumers everywhere understand that any business who carries the BBB Accreditation Seal is a trustworthy business, with a proven track record of ethical business practices. Don't just tell consumers you are trustworthy. Show them by proudly displaying the Seal on every consumer touch point!
Some of these touch points include your website, business cards, social media accounts, email signature, digital advertisements, company vehicles, and more. There are several versions of the BBB Accreditation Seal (digital and printed) available to you. Check them out below.
The Dynamic Seal is a clickable version of the Seal that links directly to your BBB Business Profile. This is the only version you won't be able to download from this article. You can get the Dynamic Seal for your website by logging into your BBB portal located on bbb.org, or by clicking the "Ask Me" button and talking to your rep.
Once you have the Dynamic Seal, place it in the header or footer on your website to make sure it displays on every page. If you host your own site, work with your site administrator to add the Seal. If you use a website service like Weebly, Squarespace, or WordPress, upload it using the built-in design tool.
You can attach your BBB Accreditation Seal to almost any one of your social networks using simple design tools like Pixelmator, Canva, or Photoshop. It's best to add it to your cover photo, so consumers or prospects see it every time they visit your page. (Tip: Canva is a user-friendly design tool for beginners and non-designers that includes several social media templates along with a cover page for most platforms.)
