Three Reasons Why You Need Headshots For Your Website
If you are a business professional, a nice headshot is a must! Professionals in ANY field can use a professional headshot for many different purposes. But here are three reasons why you need headshots for your website 🙂
Stock Images Just Do Not Cut It
Having “stock” images may be worse than having no images at all – in my opinion! Stock images are not personal and they show that you’ve taken little effort to build a professional website. For many businesses, your website is your storefront. So putting some thought and effort into it is important. One of the easiest ways to do this is by having headshots in an “about me” page. I also recommend putting family portraits on your website – if possible. This gives Clients a really personal look into who you are 🙂
Clients Like To Get A “Feel” For Your Business
Displaying professional headshots give clients the opportunity to get a feel for who you are. This is why you want your headshots to be friendly, confident, and professional. The more that a potential client knows about you, the more likely they will feel comfortable hiring you 😉
The Competition Have Them
Last but not least, you need headshots for your website because every one else is doing it! In today’s day-and-age where pictures are everywhere, you NEED to have them. I recommend taking a look at your top four or five competitors and seeing what they are doing. Chances are, they will have professional headshots. You do not need to copy what they are doing – but it is definitely a good idea to keep pace with what your competition is doing 🙂
If you have never taken headshots, it is easier than you may think! The best way to get your headshots scheduled is by sending me an email ([email protected]) or through the contact form on my website. Thanks!
