We all started with a blurry or low-quality headshot…

Trust me when I say not all business leaders, entrepreneurs or sales professionals started off with high-quality headshots, wonderful websites and bold branding!

Sometimes we have to look back at the old dusty, low-quality pictures and videos to appreciate how far we have really come...

If you are requested or invited to speak as part of your business or in your career, one of the main marketing materials that will always ask for is a headshot.?

It's how they introduce you to their audience AND how you communicate non-verbally without saying a word.?

After all, they say pictures are worth a thousand words, so here are a few tips to make sure your next headshots are head-turning:

1. Get your headshots updated (You would be surprised how many LinkedIn profiles and company websites have an old, outdated images).

1. Add color to your wardrobe (It's almost 2024, you don’t have to wear a black, gray or brown suit).

1. Show some teeth when you smile (Studies show that when you smile in pictures you seem more trustworthy).?

1. Add some full body images (Headshots are a great way to introduce yourself to an audience virtually but take advantage of your photo shoot and capture multiple angles so you can have high quality images for future marketing, promotions and social media content).

When you step on stage to speak on behalf of your business, brand or company you want to make sure the headshot you sent mirrors what you look like now.?

It automatically builds trust and connection before you open your mouth.?

So, how confident are you with your current headshot??

Are you good to go or is it time for new ones??
