Company logos on every account
Every account in Stage 1 shows its logo on the Board, the Watchlist, the Desk and every message waiting for approval, so you know the company at a glance.

A list of company names reads like a spreadsheet. Twenty messages waiting for approval read like a wall.
Stage 1 now shows each account's logo everywhere the account shows up.
Where they appear
On the Board, beside each account in the list and large at the top of the account page.
On the Watchlist, in the table, the top movers and the account panel that opens when you click one.
On the Desk, beside every message in Going out, every reply and every intro you've asked for.
When you approve a morning's messages, the logo tells you which company each one is for before you read a word.
Where the logo comes from
Stage 1 tries three places, in order.
LinkedIn's own company logo, saved when Stage 1 looks the company up.
The company website's icon, fetched by Stage 1's own server so your target list never leaves it.
The company's initials, in a clean tile, when neither is good enough. A blurry 16-pixel icon is worse than two letters, so Stage 1 skips anything that small.
Stage 1 only takes a LinkedIn company whose name really matches yours, and only uses a website whose address carries a word from the company's name. A stranger's logo is worse than none.
When it's wrong
Click the logo at the top of any account page and type the company's real website. Stage 1 uses it from then on, for the logo and for finding work emails.
Why it matters
You work dozens of accounts at once. Recognizing one in a glance instead of a read saves seconds on every screen, every day. And it cuts the mistake that hurts most, approving a message meant for one company with another one on your mind.
