Editing Your Profile
One of the most important things you can do when you sign up for the Sacramento Business Forum is to make sure you have a complete profile so potential customers who visit the site can contact you.
When you register on the Sacramento Business Forum, you'll get an email that lets you know your registration is pending administrator approval. Once the administrator approves your registration (typically within a business day or less), you'll get an email telling you your account has been approved, with a link to a one time login. Clicking that link brings you to a screen that looks like this:
You should press the login button, and on the next page, enter a new password. A portion of this page is shown below.
As you can see, at a minimum you'll want to enter your password (and confirm it to make sure you typed it correctly), and scroll down to click the "Save" button. However, you should also note that there are two other tabs, "Additional Account Information" and "Business Info".
You should enter as much information as possible about your business, so users can find you.
Remember, the information you enter in your profile appears on your profile page as well as in our Member Directory, so make sure you enter your phone number (and web site address if you have one). Even if you choose not to participate in the forums -- though we certainly hope you will -- having a complete profile helps you connect with customers.
Your email address will never be published on the site, but you do have an option to enable / disable a contact form where people can reach you.
Making Changes To Your Profile Later
If you want to change the details of your profile after you first log in, click for the "My Account" Link underneath your user name in the box in the upper right hand corner of the page. Clicking on the "Edit" tab on your profile page will allow you to edit your profile.
