About the About Us Page

 

This section of your homepage is a great way to  personalize your store and humanize your staff. You can share your store's mission, goals, or ideals. You can introduce new staff or celebrate experienced staff. You can use this space to talk about and acknowledge your local community and your impacts on that community. 

 

Aside from personalization, this section is a good way to highlight where your store has been and where your store will go. You can drop information on new services or expansions to the business. Ultimately, you can choose how you customize this section and choose what is important enough to share with your customers.

2. Find and click Customize
3. You will see the customization menu on the left of your screen. Click the drop-down arrow to the left of Aboutus Page
4. If you do not see Aboutus Page, scroll to the bottom of the customization menu and select Add section
5. From here, find and select Aboutus Page to add the section to your page

 

Adding About Services

Before you begin to customize the section as a whole, you will need to begin adding the services that you wish to display. To add them, please click Aboutus Page > Add About Service.

• Heading

You are only able to add up to 3 About Services to each About Us Page block. If you choose to include both Banner Block-1 and Banner Block-2, these About Services, called the Service Block, will be sandwiched between them

Customizing About Us Page Presentation

After you have finished adding and organizing your services, the last step to consider is how you wish to present them. In order to do this, please click on Aboutus Page. Here you will notice three sections with several customizable features:

• About Banner Block1
  • Show About Banner Block
  • Image
  • Hover
  • Link
  • Heading
  • Description
  • About Button Text
  • Button Link
• About Banner Block2
• Service Block

 

About Banner Blocks

Both Banner Blocks include a toggle On/Off switch and have the same customizable features. The only difference between these two is their placement and orientation on your homepage. If you choose to include both of these blocks, please also remember that the Service Block sits between them.

About Button Text and Button Link

You can also include an About Button and link it to a web address or choose another page from the drop-down menu. If you do not want to include an About Button, you can leave the text block blank.

 

Service Block

The Service Block is where the About Services blocks are housed. You can customize two sections here: Main Title and Sub Title.

 

Main Title and Sub Title

These two sections focus on labeling your collection of services. The customization and naming conventions are wholly your store's; we recommend customizing them to fit the themes of your services as well as the culture of your store.
