Add your logo and name

1. Open the Word file and replace the Your Logo Here box with your logo.
2. Replace Agency Name in the letterhead; the body says "the Agency," so no other name edits are needed.
3. Replace the Street Address, City, State ZIP line and the Phone, Email, Website line with your details.
4. Set the letterhead text to black, delete the instructions page, and save.
