### **🌐 How to Activate Your Account**

Once you receive an email from a contractor requesting your prequalification, follow these steps to get started:

1. **Click the Activation Link**: The email contains an activation link. Click this to begin.
2. **Set Up Your Account**: Once you click the link, you’ll land on a page where you can watch a video to learn more, or simply click **Get Started**.
3. **Create a Password**: Ensure your password meets the character requirements. Once done, click **Activate Your Account**.
4. **Access Your Prosper Dashboard**: After activating, you’ll be taken to your **Prosper account**, where you can manage tenders, contracts, and prequalification requests.

### **📋 Completing Your Profile**

After activating your account, the next step is to complete your company profile. Here’s how:

1. **Go to ‘My Company’**: In this section, update all necessary details.
2. **User Details**: Fill out your personal details.
3. **Company Details**: Add your company logo—this is crucial for making a strong impression with contractors. Complete other key company information as required.
4. **Trades and Locations**: Be thorough here. For instance, if you’re a dry liner, make sure to add related trades like ceilings and plastering. The more trades and locations you include, the more visible you’ll be to contractors.

Once you’ve filled in all the relevant information, press **Save** to complete your company profile.

---

### **🏗️ Completing Your Prequalification**

Now that your profile is set, it’s time to complete the prequalification:

1. **Financial Information**: Enter your financial details and click **Save and Continue**.
2. **Organisational Information**: Include key personnel in your business, such as those responsible for tendering and health and safety.
3. **Documents and References**: Upload relevant documents and provide references.

Once you’ve added a reference, your profile will be around 90% complete. It will reach 100% once all required information is filled in.
