## Welcome to JD Supra! 

We're thrilled to have your firm join the JD Supra community. So, what happens next? We take on most of the heavy-lifting, but there are a few things we'll need from you (noted with checkboxes next to each of your to-dos).

1. We'll set up your firm's account, fill in your profile with info from your website, and assign a content specialist to monitor your website(s) for new content. What we need from you: 
     - [Your logo](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/getting-started-your-logo) ([click for specs](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/getting-started-your-logo)).
     - [Your graphic content header](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/your-branded-header-dimensions-appearance) and/or [background graphic/colors](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/your-branded-background) (if part of your subscription).
2. When your profile is ready, we'll need you to: 
     - Log in to your account and [preview your profile](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/how-to-preview-your-profile) ([click for instructions](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/how-to-preview-your-profile)). 
     - [Edit](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/how-to-edit-your-profile) or provide edits for your profile, and approve it. 
     - Visit your [Admin Management page](https://www.jdsupra.com/managemyaccount/adminmgmt/adminmgmt.aspx) (available as 'Your Team' in the 'Account' drop down menu) and click +New Admin to add anyone from your team who will be accessing analytics, editing your profile, and/or whom you would want to be subscribed to account emails.

 Once you've reviewed and approved your profile, we'll set your account live and start publishing and promoting your content.  See, [Post-Launch Checklist](https://resources.jdsupra.com/allposts/getting-started-guide-post-launch-checklist) for next steps.
