Complete your profile and feature your workspace
Build the professional surface that people actually see first: your title, bio, interests, and featured profile workspace.
This walkthrough starts with profile setup because it creates the public first impression for every later offer.
What this walkthrough covers
What this feature does
This walkthrough helps you turn a mostly blank account into a profile that can actually explain your work to a stranger.
On GetPaidX, profile setup is not just cosmetic. It affects:
- how your professional profile reads in public,
- how your featured workspace is positioned,
- how the onboarding checklist progresses,
- how quickly a buyer or collaborator understands what you offer.
Why people use it
Most product flows convert better when the person visiting can answer three questions quickly:
- Who are you?
- What kind of work do you do?
- Where should I click next?
This walkthrough is about answering those questions in one pass instead of forcing people to guess.
What changes after you finish
Once your profile basics and featured workspace are in place, later walkthroughs like pricing, referrals, and workspace launches make more sense because they now sit on top of a clear public identity.
Step-by-step
How the flow works
Step 1
Open your profile settings
Goal: Start from the dedicated profile screen instead of editing piecemeal across the app.
Why it matters: This is where GetPaidX collects the public details that shape your profile, onboarding progress, and discovery relevance.
Route: /settings/profile
Start on the dedicated profile page so the walkthrough begins from the real account setup surface.
Step 2
Add your title, bio, city, country, and interest tags
Goal: Make it obvious who you help and how people should understand your work.
Why it matters: Visitors need enough context to trust you before they click into pricing, workspaces, or referrals.
Route: /settings/profile
This step captures the actual moment your public positioning becomes understandable to a visitor.
Step 3
Activate and feature the profile workspace
Goal: Turn your profile into a persistent service or portfolio surface.
Why it matters: Your featured workspace becomes the strongest public call-to-action, especially from `/workspace/{slug}` and your profile page.
Route: /settings/profile
The final step shows the profile workspace setup in its configured state after activation.
Common questions
What people usually ask
Do I need a paid plan before doing this?
No. You can complete the basic profile and feature a workspace before upgrading. Paid setup comes later when you turn on pricing.
Can I change my title or bio later?
Yes. The walkthrough gets you to a strong first publishable state, but the profile details remain editable later.
What changes publicly after I finish?
People see a more complete profile and a clearer path into your featured workspace, which makes later monetization flows easier to understand.
