Want an easy way to build professionalism, engagement, and credibility?
Here's six reasons to do so:
- CREDIBILITY. Having a professional headshot allows people to connect... which in turn, builds credibility. Selfies and cropped photos don't count here—that's the opposite of professional!
- PROFESSIONALISM. Professional headshots look professional and that rubs off on you—if you look professional then you look like an expert in your field.
- COHESION. If you want your clientele to know that your company is organized, consistent headshots on your "Team" page is the way to do it. It demonstrates your company had good processes in place.
- PERSONALITY. Just because it's professional doesn't mean it has to be stiff and boring. Headshots very often show personality and work culture. So, show off that sense of humor! Shots with personality will stand out from the glamour shots, I assure you.
- AUTHENTICITY. Outdated or heavily retouched headshots cause confusion. This leads to suspicion and mistrust—before you even meet! No one wants to start a working relationship off on that foot! Clients are more likely to purchase from brands they trust and people they know. Don't loose a client before you ever get started because of a terrible headshot!
- CONNECTION. After years of mask-wearing, we all know seeing a face is important to making connections. For example, how likely are you to accept an LinkedIn connection with the faceless clipart profile? A lot less likely, I'm sure.
Headshots don't have to be complicated or expensive. Reach out to me—and don't loose another potential client because of your outdated headshot!
