Since you say "change our contact information", I assume you already have a Company Page for your agency on IMDb.

Changes to Contact data and Company Details require an IMDb Pro Account, but an Pro Account can submit changes to any Company or Contact Data for any person on IMDb.

Exactly how you would submit changes depends on exactly what you want to do: enter address/contact data for your Agency, add employees (agents), link people already connected to your Agency to employees, or add new Clients to your Agency.

More detail would be helpful, including a link to your Company page if you have one.

Our agency ACT 1 recently merged with another Film Talents and I would like to batch edit all of our clients to show the new talent agency contact information rather then the former. Is there a way to do this (or to simply have anything under the old name/info switched over to change all at once) rather then to have to do it on each actors individual accounts through the painstakingly long edit process?

I can't find ACT 1's IMDB PRO page, but if I clink on the Agents that were at ACT 1 and that are now at Film Talents, this is the info that I get. Half of it is correct and the other half isn't. 

This is Axelle Sibiril-Lefebvre's page (one of our Agents)

I don't know how the merge was done, but is is possible that your clients and employees were all moved during that process? If you cannot find the company page for your previous Agency, this would suggest that is the case.

Check a few of your clients Pro pages, and see if they  show the new name or the old one. If they show the old one, you can click on that to get to the old company; if they all show the new company, you probably don't need to do anything.

The web page and email address have been updated on the Company page. While many changes show up on the primary page (the one where they can be changed), it often requires an overnight rebuild to push this information out to every page that shows it. Allow at least 48 hours for this to occur.

Similarly, the Contact information on your clients' pages may require the same amount of time to update. If the Act 1 name stilll shows, but clicking on it either links to your new page or gives an error 404  then it is almost certainly going to make the change in the next couple of days.

If you do find links to the old, Act 1, page, reply here with the link to the company page and I will explain how to make the move to the new page relatively easily (not exactly batch but a single submission for all clients).

IMDb does not do  phone support. Also, I am not an employee of IMDb, simply an experienced user.

Ok thank you for your help.

This is what figures currently on clients' imdb page. The Film Talent info is correct.

Do you think all I have to is go into each Agent's page and change their email addresses. 
Thank you so much!

Yes and no. You will potentially  have to update the phone number, email address and website, but there is an easier way to go than by going to each Staff member's page.

Start on the  Staff page for Film Talents and click the Edit page button

Select Correct / Delete from the dropdowm menu beside Employees
Click Continue.

Either change the Keep: to Correct  in the Action column beside each of the Staff you need to change (some are already correct)
OR
Check the box beside Correct all at the top of the form.
Click Check these updates

Now you can make the required changes.

Once you have done this, click Re-check these updates.
Verify that you have made all the changes correctly.
Once all is correct you can Submit these changes.

Doing it this way allows you to get all the changes made in a single submission.

I am an agent at Taylored Management [gb].
We have a number of clients that we're about to make international representations for. We have set out to add our contact details on their profiles.

Below is a list of the updates that we have made; we have also provided spotlight links to  prove representation. We had hoped that this would help the verification process and help for a more timely update.

As far as we understand it should take between a day and week for these updates to become live on IMDb. However after some time now nothing has ben updated. 

Have we done something wrong? 

How do we go about having these updates become live on IMDb?

Please Help
