      \n
    1. Add your photo or branded background. \u00a0If you just started your search you may not be ready to do that, so until you have the photo you want to use on your page, or your branded background ready to go, select one of the many backgrounds in a gallery that is a good fit for your brand.\u00a0 There are many for you to select and use.\u00a0 You can change and update your background easily in the future.\u00a0 The prior background photo is saved giving you instant flexibility.\u00a0 I suggest you add a high quality personal picture that captures you and your brand.\u00a0 But if you are not ready to do this, or your appointment with the photographer is next week – the background gallery is fine for now and helpful.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
