"The majority of searches for professional services now start online, and contractors without a Web presence are missing an opportunity to connect with both new and existing customers," said Joe Richardson, senior vice president of professional products and services for Behr Process Corporation. "We understand that pros can be starved for time and resources, and a full website design can be cost-prohibitive. The free resource created specifically for industry professionals, BehrPro WEB eliminates the need for a developer, designer and hosting with templates that are easy to set-up, quickly increasing a pro's reach to help them better market their services."

Pros can begin building their website by invitation only. After entering a company name to populate a hosted URL, users will be prompted to select a template that can be customized with their business images and branding assets, such as a logo. Pros will then be taken through sections to populate, including services, testimonials, company info, contact info and an image gallery to modify text and imagery to their preferences. Once the template is final, the pro completes the process by publishing it for public viewing. When live, the website will serve as the pro's official website. A video providing an overview of the program can be found at www.behrpro.com/webvideo.

"BehrPro WEB is so simple to use; all you have to do is follow the prompts, add your own text and personalize it with your own photos," said David Rice, owner of DK Professional Painting, LLC. "From start-to-finish, I was truly impressed with the entire process. It's really easy and great to know WEB serves as another avenue of advertising for my business."

Professionals interested in signing up for BehrPro WEB can find more information at the BehrPro Experience Tour, stopping at The Home Depot in cities across the U.S. through November to showcase cost effective and time efficient solutions for professional painters, contractors and remodelers; or by contacting their BehrPro Representative at 1-877-776-3961.
