Deliver Virtual Tours to Clients: A Guide for Photographers

Photographers deliver TeliportMe virtual tours to their clients in one of three ways: send the tour’s link, give the client a sub-account of their own, or keep each client’s tours in a workspace with team access for the client. Add a brand kit per client and your own domain, and each client gets white-label tours in their own brand.

1. Give each client a brand kit

  1. In your dashboard, open Brands and choose Create Brand. Use the client’s name, logo, font and hotspot style.
  2. Choose the client’s kit under Brand when you create each of their tours.

Essential includes 1 brand kit, Business 5, and Unlimited has no limit. Link the client’s logo to their website with the Logo block. On every paid plan, tours show no Powered by TeliportMe badge. See Brand kits and How branding works.

2. Choose how to hand the tours over

TeliportMe can’t transfer a tour from one account to another, so decide where a client’s tours will live before you build them.

  • Share linkThe tour stays in your account and you send the client its link. Set it to Unlisted so anyone with the link can open it, then copy the Link from the Share tab. The client can also embed it on their website.
  • Client sub-accountOn Agency plans, the client gets a TeliportMe account of their own with a share of your tours, brands, storage and custom domains. They sign up first, then you add them on the Agency tab with Add Sub-Account and New Allocation. See Sub-accounts.
  • Workspace per clientThe tours stay in your account, in a workspace for that client: choose Create Workspace, then Create Tour inside it. See Workspaces.

To let a client or their staff into their workspace, add them to your team and choose that workspace in their role. Team members need their own TeliportMe account, and Edit Tours is always on, so they can change the tours. Tick Create Tours or Remove Tours only if they should make or delete tours too.

A custom domain shows tours at an address such as tours.yourcompany.com instead of teliportme.com. Add it on the Domains page, create the CNAME record at your registrar, then choose Activate. After that, pick it under Custom Domain on the Share tab before you copy a client’s link. Custom domains are included in some plans; the secure padlock (HTTPS) can take up to 24 hours after the domain shows Active.

Most MLS boards don’t allow branding or contact details in a listing’s tour. The MLS button on the Share tab gives one, with no logos and no contact buttons. CTA and Menu blocks still show on it, so check them against the agent’s MLS rules. See MLS virtual tours, and our listing-site guides for where the link goes on Zillow, Realtor.com and other sites.

5. Show your own work with a portfolio

A portfolio is one page that shows your public tours as a gallery, under your logo and cover photo, to send to new clients. Link it to a folder to show only your best work. Business includes portfolios. Unlisted client tours stay off it, as a portfolio shows public tours only.

Tips

  • Check a link as the client will see it by opening it in a private browser window, where you’re not signed in.
  • Pair each client’s workspace with their brand kit, so every tour in it has the right logo and style.

Common questions

Can I transfer a virtual tour to my client’s account?

No. TeliportMe doesn’t transfer tours between accounts. Photographers hand tours over by sharing the link, by giving the client a sub-account, or by keeping each client’s tours in a workspace.

Can I white-label virtual tours for my clients?

Yes. Use a brand kit per client and show the tours on your own custom domain. On every paid plan, tours show no Powered by TeliportMe badge.

How many client brands can I have?

Essential includes 1 brand kit, Business includes 5, and Unlimited has no limit. When yours are used up, the Brands page shows Brand Limit Reached.

Can my client edit the tour I made for them?

Yes, if you give them team access to the workspace the tour is in: every team member can edit tours. A share link only lets the client view the tour.
