Your Brand
Every profile on NewLIST begins with telling the world who you are and what you do as a business.
The Brand Wizard
Just about everything in NewLIST begins with some kind of wizard or a table list. NewLIST is designed to help you manage almost any size business from a small local shop to large international brands.
Below is the Brand Wizard that NewLIST uses to collect all the information needed to populate your brand's profile and give your NewLIST mini site exactly what people searching for your kind of business need.
Wizards: How They Work
Different pieces of information about your brand, offer, ad, or even user profile, is organized under different tabs. Navigate between tabs using the [prev] and [next] buttons or just click on the tab that has the information you want to update.
Some tab windows have their own [save] buttons while other tab windows allow you to save the field's data by pressing [enter] / [return] or just moving the cursor out of the field.
We'll give a brief overview of the information you'll need to provide to make your NewLIST presence a stunning success!
Details Tab
Company Name
Enter your company or brand legal name. This field is required.
Brand Display Name
If you want to shorten or not use your company or brand's legal name, the Brand Display Name will be shown instead.
OrgName
The OrgName within NewLIST is a unique name that uniquely identifies your organization (company / brand) within NewLIST. Think of your "orgname" like your "username", only it's used for your company instead. This field is required.
Domain Name
If you have a company or brand domain name, you can list it here. NewLIST will use this to point to your main company website if you have one. This field is optional.
NewLIST URL
The NewLIST URL is a unique branded name you use to help people find your brand profile on NewLIST. Just below your NewLIST URL, you'll see the full brand link that you can copy and use to bring people to your brand page on NewLIST. This field is required.
Referral Code
Finally, enter a branded referral code that is unique to your brand. NewLIST uses this code to credit your brand when businesses sign up. It's also useful for influencers who sign up new advertisers.
Description Tab
Your brand description is a full-featured HTML editor allowing you to create anything from the most basic text description of your brand to something beautifully powerful. We call it a mini site because it allows you to create a kind of one-page enhanced profile for your brand that is second to none with any business list you find online today.
Generate with AI
Create Fresh New Content with the Power of AI
If you're like most of us, you're not a web developer nor a graphic designer. Let the power of AI create and design your brand profile page for you. Just click the Generate with AI link, enter some short description about your brand, and NewLIST's AI will custom generate a riveting brand profile that becomes your new content to use and edit with your company's own images and details.
Here is a sample AI prompt we used to generate the NewLIST brand profile content for this documentation.
If you would like to use the above prompt text to modify for use with your own brand, here is the actual text you can copy. Make whatever changes you like that are unique to your business.
# Instructions
- Create a two column description that describes a company called "NewLIST" with appropriate headings and placeholder images.
# Description

- Include a call to action to sign up for free, no credit card required.
Social Media
If you have various major social media that you use to promote your brand, you can list those here. For influencers and pod casters and other content creators, you can also list the number of followers you have. This follower count helps brands locate you on NewLIST to advertise on your channel.
Addresses
If your brand has a public address or addresses that you'd like to share with customers and clients, you can list those here.
- The easiest way to enter a new address is to first select "Add New Address" from the top dropdown menu. This menu will also show existing addresses you already have listed.
- Next select the closet type of address that matches yours.
- Then select the country. The dropdown is preselected with US addresses and then a short list of countries NewLIST does business within.
- Tab to the Address field and begin typing your address to see an autocomplete address list for your country. Make your selection from the list.
- Click the [save] button to save your address.
Address Tip: You can just enter a state or city and state for businesses that just do businesses regionally.
Contacts
Your brand likely has several ways for your customers and clients to contact you. Here is where you can lost those various contacts, from phone numbers, website URLs, email addresses, and more.
Once you add a new contact, they will auto save on any changes you make. Just press [enter] / [return] on your keyboard to force the newlist updated contact to save.
Media
The Media tab of the Brand wizard will show an empty table list the first time you setup your brand. No worries. Once you upload your brand's media and ad images, you can revisit this tab of the brand wizard and it will be populated with all of your beautiful media files.
Show on Profile
You probably don't want to show every media file you upload on your brand profile. This screen allows you to select only those media files you want to show off on your brand's profile page.
Header Image
Your brand profile can utilise a header image if you like. If the image is at least 1140 pixesl wide, NewLIST will allow you to set the image as your brand profile header image.
Offers
Shoe on Profile
Just like media files, you many not want all of your offers to be displayed on your brand profile. Simply select and unselect those offers you want to show or hide.
Channel
Influencer Accounts Only
If you signed up with an influencer account to promote your own ad channel on NewLIST, you'll see an additional tab in your brand setup called Channel.,
Channel Name
Enter a channel name that is germane to you as an influencer, pod caster, or something close to the social media group you run. Shorter is better. This channel name, preceded by an "@" symbol is the channel name you will direct your followers to find advertisers supporting you.
You can change your channel name at any time you like provided it is not already in use on NewLIST.
Copyrights and Trademarks
Make sure your channel name does not encroach on another brand or business with a copyrighted or trademarked name. NewLIST takes a very dim view of influencers attempting to "muscle-in" on the audiences of other influencers with similar sounding names. If you don't own the copyright or trademark, pick something else.
Keep in mind that NewLIST reserves the right to change a channel name, especially where copyright and trademark claims can be verified. See the NewLIST Terms of Service regarding public branding using copyright and trademarks.
Ad Minimum
Enter the minimum number of points you are willing to accept for business sponsors to have their ads appear on your channel. Keep in mind that ad points are basically US$1.00 per ad point and ads renew weekly.
If you have a smaller audience, such as a nano or micro influencer, you may want to set this value rather low to keep advertisers happy with their ROI in advertising with you.
For mid-tier, macro, and mega influencers, you can adjust this ad minimum to reflect the size, traffic, and engagement of brands who want to engage with you.
It cannot be emphasized enough that every influencer and every audience is different and what works to attract brands for some many not work for others. This is where knowing your audience and brand advertisers will be crucial for you and your success with using NewLIST Channels.
