I have already signed up for this - it's next week - and sounds like a MUST!!!!

Branding your image is one of the most important aspects of any business. You need to have an image that depicts you and the business you are involved in. Many sites require complex steps to customize a theme and make it the way you wish. ActiveRain offers you a really great option on how to customize your blog to represent your image better. Unfortunately, very few really master how to accomplish this.

Have you ever seen a blog on ActiveRain that looks like this?

I know I surely have. While this type of theme might be acceptable on this network, it really doesn't convey a professional branding that you would wish to associate with your business. On Friday March 19th at 11 AM EST (8 AM PST) I will be teaching at ActiveRain University on how to customize your your blog on ActiveRain. This 1 hour webinar will cover the following:

Creating a Custom Header that has Pizazz.

Uploading a Header to your ActiveRain Blog & Outside Blog.

Customizing your ActiveRain Background to compliment your header.

Now, in case you were wondering why ActiveRain chose me to teach this class, let me show you a few examples of headers I have created in the past for clients:

And here are a few more examples of member blogs that I have customized:

These are just a few customizations on ActiveRain that I have done for clients in the past. In this webinar, I will show you step by step how to take your blog customizations to the next level.

Thank you for reposting this Dagny. I managed to miss it the first time, but when I viisted your blog to say hello it jumped off the page at me.

I'm glad you liked the Touchpoint Gift I shared with you!!! I worked hard to create something that my clients would appreciate. Please share with me when you give it to your first client...and your second...and...

I love the idea of making my blog look better. I plan to join you in class. I'm glad you found Jeremy as he is one of the network's best mentors! There are others, but Jeremy is at the head of the class.

Okay, I'm glad I paused to go register. The class is tomorrow morning!!! Yawn! I hope to see you there, but tonight is St. Patrick's Day after all.

Mar 17, 2010 03:14 PM

Vic, no worries! The class isn't till Friday morning! You have all tomorrow to rest up for it :)

Mar 17, 2010 04:03 PM

Oh, and thanks for the awesome words Vic, I might have to add that to my testimonials!

I think I will agree with Vic, Jeremy. I do love what I have seen.

And, Vic, I cannot wait to share your gift with my short sale clients this week! I will let you know..... Thanks so much again! You are a short hitter - i'm still up on the east coast!
