ACSP does not publish an open API. The workflow is: download the member roster CSV from the ACSP member portal as a chapter officer or sponsoring brand, or maintain a franchise-network roster you curate yourself. SleekRank reads a CSV path or Google Sheet URL and renders pages from whichever source you point at, refreshing on the cache cycle you set.

Yes. Add an affiliation column with values like California Closets, Closet Factory, Closets by Design, Inspired Closets, or Independent. Use a tag mapping to render the affiliation badge. Independent designers tend to convert higher on bespoke walk-in projects, while franchises convert better on standardized reach-in and pantry projects, so showing both surfaces serves the full intent range.

Add a closetTypes array column (walk-in, reach-in, pantry, garage, mudroom, laundry, wine, sports) and a priceRange column (under-5k, 5k-15k, 15k-plus). Use list mappings to render both. Add a secondary page group at /closet-designers/{closetType}/ for per-type index pages, which captures searches like 'walk-in closet designer' or 'garage organization pro' separately.

Store showroomAddress, showroomHours, brandsCarried, and appointmentUrl per row. A selector mapping renders the showroom card with hours, directions, and a Google Maps embed. Each per-designer page then acts as a mini local landing page for that showroom, with the designer page reinforcing local pack signals for the franchise location.

Each designer gets a separate row with their own slug, even if they share a showroom address. The showroomAddress column repeats across designers from the same franchise location. This gives every designer a permanent searchable URL, which matters because homeowners often search by designer name after seeing them on a brand's social media or a local home show.

Yes. Store an appointmentUrl per designer that links to the franchise's booking flow, pre-filled with the designer's ID or store ID. A selector mapping renders a 'Book consultation' button that drops the visitor into the booking funnel for that specific designer. Conversion rates climb significantly when the booking flow starts from the designer page rather than a generic franchise landing page.

Update the source row: remove for retired designers, or change the affiliation column for designers moving between franchises (a common career path in this category). For franchise-to-franchise moves, keep the slug stable to preserve inbound links and search authority, just update affiliation, showroomAddress, and the appointmentUrl.

Pair the page group with a SleekPixel template that takes name, city, and primary closet type as parameters. Each designer page gets a unique OG image showing 'Sara Park, Walk-in Closet Specialist, Scottsdale AZ' rendered in the franchise's brand template. Social shares and SERP image cards then carry the specialty plus city combination.
