How To Install a Facebook Timeline Cover Pic


Have you not added a timeline cover pic to your Facebook page yet simply because you haven't had the time to figure out how?  Here's a simple tutorial on how to add or change your cover pic.

Go to your Facebook business page.  (Or personal page, for that matter).
Click on the "Add a Cover" button.



Click on "Upload Photo".  Then choose a photo from a file on your computer and click "open".  (Massage pictures and directions on how to save them to your computer are in this post: 6 Free Marketing Posters).




The photo will then appear as your timeline cover pic.  You can left click on the pic and drag it into position. Once you have it where you want it, click "Save Changes".



And there you have it.  A nice new timeline cover pic for your massage business Facebook page.
I know many of you have already figured this out, but I have seen several pages without cover pics lately, so I thought this little tutorial might come in handy.

Are there other tutorials you would be interested in?  I'd love to hear your feedback and ideas for other how-to posts in the comments below.

Create a Colorful Resume


Check out this cool site where you can turn your resume into an online infographic: re.vu.

You can add any education, previous jobs, interests, skills, etc. and it creates a visual graphic of your story.  Choose from several different themes to match your resume to the kind of work you do.  (There are several that are zen-like, perfect for massage).  You can even upload a custom background.

I thought this could be a neat way to showcase your education and skills in massage. You could post your infographic resume to show clients your experience.  The site makes it easy to share on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google +.

Here's just a little example of what it looks like when filled out:

Did you make your own infographic resume?  Post the link in the comments.  I'd love to see it!

Learn How to Customize Marketing Posters


Last week I shared 6 Free Marketing Posters for you to use on your website and Facebook page.  While the photos look fine on their own, I've left some space in some of them for you to add your own contact information.

To do this, you will first need some type of imaging software.  There's a great site where you can download free software: Ninite.com.

For this tutorial, we're going to use Paint.NET.  (listed under Imaging, about half way down the page.)



Once you've downloaded Paint.NET from Ninite.com, you can follow along in the video to add your own contact information to the free marketing materials from last week's post.

(If you make a mistake, simply click on Edit, and choose Undo.)





Did you add your contact info to some of the marketing posters provided?  Comment below with a link to your site so we can see how it turned out!

*Please note* you should not add your info to other people's pictures unless you have the permission to do so.
