The user can change this password at any time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, fill in their details including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"m4u-ul-list\">\n<li>First name<\/li>\n<li>Last name<\/li>\n<li>Business name<\/li>\n<li>Address<\/li>\n<li>Suburb\/town<\/li>\n<li>State\/location<\/li>\n<li>Post code<\/li>\n<li>Contact phone<\/li>\n<li>Contact mobile<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The location and contact information is quite important, because this information will show up on any listings the user places.

By hitting &#8216;follow&#8217;, they are opting in to notifications every time you add or update a listing. Basically, if you\u2019ve got great content, your positioning is good, there\u2019s a lot of people coming into your digital showroom, you\u2019ll gain more followers. And that means as soon as you change something, those followers will be notified.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the left hand side of your MyMachines4U dashboard, you\u2019ll see \u201cYour Follows\u201d under the \u201cNotifications\u201d tab.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5742&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow is a powerful tool for your sales and marketing team. For example, each of your sales team members could follow the type of machinery they\u2019re trying to sell. This would notify them when a new piece of machinery was listed in their area. And that\u2019s really valuable because when someone is selling something, they\u2019re likely replacing it with something else. So, follows allow your sales reps to keep their finger on the pulse of the marketplace.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;sub-heading&#8221;]<strong>Where To Find And Manage Your Account Details<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most basic things you can do on the MyMachines4U dashboard is update your contact details.
