Heels + Headshots ?? Your LinkedIn profile is often the first impression you make in the business world—so what does your headshot say about you? A professional, up-to-date headshot isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s a?powerful tool for building your brand, attracting opportunities, and making meaningful connections. Here’s why it matters: ??Credibility & Confidence?– A polished headshot signals that you take yourself (and your business) seriously. It helps potential clients, partners, and employers see you as a leader in your industry. ???Digital First Impressions Count?– Whether we like it or not, people make snap judgments online. A high-quality, current photo ensures you’re showing up as your best self. Your Brand Evolves—So Should Your Image?– Maybe you’ve had a glow-up in confidence, leveled up your career, or shifted directions. Your headshot should reflect the powerhouse you are today! If it’s been a while since your last professional photo, consider this your sign to refresh your look. Our Nashville Chapter gets complimentary headshots on March 6th and our Chicago Chapter gets complimentary headshots on April 17th! #memberperks #womeninbusiness #Womeninleadership
