7 Brand Photos every Business Needs
When you run a business, you will need to invest in some professional photos at some point. But what kind of photos do you really need? When you pick your brand photographer, they will most likely ask you about your business and what you need these images for. Based on the information you provide, they will be able to make suggestions on what you need and where those images could be useful. So let’s have a look at what a brand photoshoot can include. Here are 7 branding photos that will help build your brand, represent your business and connect with your customers.
Three to Thrive
Three Tips to Decorating your Office Space
1. Incorporate plenty of plants: Plants improve air quality, reduce stress, and create a calming environment. Do not forget to take care of them though! Few things are sadder than dead plants in an office.
2. Smartly combine organic materials : Leverage our innate biophilia and incorporate organic materials such as wood, stone, and natural fibres to create warmth and instil an additional sense of calm.
3. Ditch cold hues and maximise natural light: Natural light enhances mood, boosts energy, and overall has the potential to truly uplift a space. Despite their functionality, excessively cold lights can disrupt your circadian rhythm and contribute to eye strain.
Productivity Tip
Use the 80/20 Rule (Pareto Principle)
The 80/20 productivity method, also known as the Pareto Principle, focuses on identifying and prioritising the 20% of tasks or activities that yield 80% of the results. By concentrating your time and energy on these high-impact tasks, you can maximize efficiency and minimise wasted effort. This approach encourages individuals to critically assess their workload, eliminate low-value tasks, and channel their resources where they matter most. Here's how you can apply the 80/20 rule to boost productivity and achieve your goals:
How it works: Identify the 20% of your tasks that generate 80% of your results and focus more time on those critical tasks.
Why it works: It helps you prioritise high-impact tasks over busy work, maximising your output while minimising wasted effort.
And that's a wrap!
