This is a great example of a minimal, accessible "Meet the Team" page that manages to look cool and introduce the faces behind the agency without going over the top. Hovering over an employee's individual circle produces a zoomed-in effect, and clicking expands their headshot with their name and social profiles. When you hover over a picture of one of their leaders, they strike a power pose. Does your agency have a "meet the team" section on your website?
Agency websites can be kind of intimidating.
They’re meticulously styled. They make bold declarations. And they’re not always extremely straightforward.
To a prospect seeking out a new agency partner, it can all be a little overwhelming. It’s easy to wonder: Who are the real people behind all the smoke and mirrors?
