How a Small Business is Born!
Let's face it. Starting a small business is hard. A lot of times the owner takes on a lot of responsibilities. They are the manager, the computer IT guy, the one who does the work, the accountant and book keeper, the office assistant... I could go on and on. I know it. I live it every day. Then something happens. If they don't already have a staff, they start to hire additional employees to take some of the burden off. The first step might be an office assistant. Then someone to take some of the burden of the work from their plate. Before you know it, a small business with a staff is born.
Your Staff Needs Headshots!
Most likely as a small business you will have some sort of website. You will want to grow your business, in every way possible. You will want to put your best effort into making a great first impression in the professional world. (Make sure to read our article Making A Great First Impression With Your Headshot).
First and foremost you will want your website and social media platforms to show that you are a true professional in your industry. Nothing says that better than a professional headshot.
People looking for businesses online are going want to see how you are. Without a photo, you are likely to get less attention, and without a professionally done one, you may be just another “face in the crowd”. A professional headshot helps you distinguish yourself from the others, giving you your own “brand”.
A professional photographer understands the psychology behind doing headshots. He or she will be able to photograph you in such a way as to come off as friendly as possible. Remember, your headshots will be how anyone looking into you or your business will associate a face with a name. If your friendly face is associated with your business, profile, or resume it will resonate positively as people are more apt to deal with someone they perceive as a nice, friendly and approachable person.
Now that we have established the fact that you will need professional headshots for your website, we need to talk about your entire team. People love to see who they will be working with on your website "About our Team" page. One thing you need to consider is that you should have a cohesive look throughout your team members. When all the team headshot match, it looks like you take your business seriously and you will take your clients seriously. Nothing is worse than having a bunch of non matching mixed up headshots. You know the kind... the ones where you took the cell phone picture against the brick wall to try and get your own headshot? If you want to read more about Tips for Team Photos click the link!
