UPWARD FEATURE

Your Finished Work Is Your Strongest Proof.

Recent Work is more than a photo gallery. Every project sits on your own Bio / Profile Page, can be shared on its own with a link or QR code, tells you where the attention came from, and adds visitors who follow your work to your CRM, so a browse turns into a conversation.

Proof people can see

Visual results sell better than any description.

Every project travels

Share one project, not a whole page.

Interest becomes a lead

Followers are added to your CRM, and tracked clicks tie to a person.

A static gallery shows your work. Recent Work shares it, measures it and turns it into follow-up.

Show your work, share it, and see what it does.

Four things Recent Work gives you that a static gallery cannot.

Show your work

Publish completed projects with photos, a category, a date and a short story of what you delivered.

Share it anywhere

Send a single project by link, QR code, email or social post instead of pointing people at a whole page.

Grow an audience

Visitors can subscribe to new work and are added to your CRM as leads.

Know what works

See views over time, which categories attract attention, and which projects generate leads.

Recent Work vs. an ordinary gallery

Portfolio sites and photo galleries display work. Upward connects it to your profile, sharing, analytics and CRM.

Two kinds of work, one profile.

Company work is created once and displayed by the whole team. My work is yours: your customers, your projects, your results.

Company Work

  • Published by the company and made available to members.
  • Members choose whether it appears on their profile.
  • Can be marked required so it always shows.

My Work

  • Projects the member completed themselves.
  • The member controls photos, description and category.
  • Public or private at any time.

Built for work people can see.

If the result is visual, Recent Work turns it into marketing.

Trades & home services

Roofing, remodels, installations, before-and-after results.

Property & real estate

Listings sold, staging, developments and site work.

Hair & beauty

Cuts, colour, styling, nail designs and transformations.

Events & speakers

Stage presentations, workshops, conferences and live events.

Add a short video to any project.

Deluxe and higher plans can upload a project video alongside the photos, so visitors watch the result, not just look at it.

One video per project

Upload an MP4 or WebM walkthrough, before-and-after or customer reaction that plays at the top of the project.

Photos still lead

The first photo stays the cover image everywhere the project appears.

Up to 250 MB

Each project video can be up to 250 MB. Upload an MP4 or WebM file.

Included with paid plans

Free plans add photos only. Upgrade to add video to any existing project later.

Every project can travel on its own.

Share a project the way that suits the conversation, each way is measured separately.

Quick Link

A simple link to the project with no tracking, ready to paste anywhere.

Tracked Link

Counts clicks and can be tied to a CRM lead or contact.

QR Code

Perfect for print, vehicle wraps, signage and job-site handouts.

Social and messaging

X, Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS and more from the same share sheet.

What a visitor sees on your Recent Work page

Your public page lists your projects as cards with a cover photo, a category and a date. Visitors can search, sort by latest, oldest or title, switch between grid and list, and filter by category.

  • Category filters appear when you use more than one category.
  • Each project has a Share button and its own page.
  • A Follow button sits at the top, so visitors can subscribe to new work.

A page for every project

Each project opens to a full page with a photo gallery, category, date, address, description and an optional link. Visitors can share it or follow your work from there.

  • Up to 12 photos per project. The first photo is the cover everywhere.
  • An address, shown with map coordinates when you pick a place.
  • A title of up to 160 characters and a long description.
  • An optional link to a related page.

Photos, and a video on paid plans

Photos are available on every plan. A short video on a project, up to 250 MB, needs a paid plan. A Free plan can add video later by upgrading.

  • Visitors see the video at the top of the project.
  • Photos still lead. The first photo is always the cover.

Categories you control

Create your own categories, such as Remodels or Roofing. Visitors filter by them, and the overview shows which categories get the most views.

  • Company owners can set up company categories that members use.
  • A category can be switched off without losing the projects in it.

Visitors subscribe to new work

The Follow menu has a Recent work switch. A visitor signs in once with a code, then switches it on. When you publish a project, followers get an email. Following also adds the visitor to your CRM.

Views and sources are measured

The Recent Work overview covers the last 7, 30 or 90 days, or this year. It shows work views over time, views by source, and views by your own categories.

  • Sources: Bio / Profile Page, QR Code, Tracked Link, Email / Newsletter, Social Media and Direct / Other.
  • Engagement: shares, tracked link clicks, QR code scans and subscribers.
  • Top performing recent work, with clicks, shares and leads for each project.
  • A short written insight points out your strongest project and category.

Interest becomes a CRM lead

Visitors who sign in to follow your work are added to your CRM as leads, with the source Recent work. You can also link a project to a lead or contact, for example the customer it was done for, and tracked links tie clicks to a person.

  • Leads from recent work are counted in the overview.
  • The same person is not added twice. Later activity is added as a note.

Company work and personal work

Company work is added by a Company Owner or Admin and can be shown on member profiles. Personal work belongs to one member.

  • Company settings control who may publish work publicly: everyone, team leads only, or no one.
  • Company owners decide which members can display company work.
  • Members control the photos, text and category of their own projects.

Plan limits

Each plan includes a number of projects. Free plans can add photos only.

  • Free: 5 projects.
  • Starter: 25 projects.
  • Deluxe: 50 projects.
  • Pro: 100 projects.

One touchpoint of a Multi-Touchpoint CRM

Recent Work lives on your Bio / Profile Page next to your reviews, videos and booking. Each touchpoint creates or updates a lead in one CRM, so a visitor who follows your work and later books is one person with one history.

Attention that becomes follow-up.

Subscribers are added to CRM with the source recorded, and every view is attributed to a source: profile, tracked link, QR code, social, email or direct.
