Connect with the customers and fans on Google+ Pages: not only can they recommend you with a +1, or add you to a circle to listen long-term.

When you upload pictures to an album on your Google+ Page, they are visible in two places: 1) Stream 2) Your albums. What I wanted with some pictures was to be able to use them on the top of Marketing Sutra Google+ page. The way good folks at Eloqua did:

So now it’s a matter of finding the scrapbook section. For this, go to your Google+ profile page.

Select Your Page

Click the Edit Profile button. Just under your profile name you’ll see the scrapbook section – click Add some photos here:

Add pictures to scrapbook section

Click Add Photo and then “Drag a photo here”.

Go Creative

You’re allowed to upload 5 pictures, one at a time. UPD. You can actually upload more pictures, but the page header will display only five. So make sure your scrapbook album does not have more than 5 pictures to avoid changing the order the photos are displayed.

Uploading pictures to the scrapbook section

Once uploaded, click OK and Done Editing. See the result.

If you still don’t have a Google+ Page for your business, here’s at least one reason why you need it: Why You Need Your Business Page on Google+?
