Whether you’re a business professional at a corporation, or running your own small business from home, professional business headshots are essential for furthering your career and your business. In the past, professional headshots were for celebrities and movie stars. Today, they are an essential part of your business marketing materials. Have you been considering corporate headshots for yourself? Here are a few more reasons why you need to get them done today.  

Business headshots and corporate headshots can add a personal touch to your personal or business branding. Today, business is a crowded marketplace. You’re trying to be heard above millions of others. It’s no surprise that those offering an impersonal focus will be pushed back. But if you have a personal focus on yourself and your business, people are more likely to want to do business with you. Remember that old saying that people don’t buy from businesses, they buy from people.  

Don’t have the same anonymous website that countless others do. Create a professional headshot and post it on your website. These headshots can also be used for other business marketing purposes. They can be used on your social media pages, your business cards, and your marketing materials and business presentations. This shows your potential customers that they’re dealing with a real person, not a multi-conglomerate, and that you’re just like them. It also adds a certain level of transparency to your business, particularly since there are financials involved.  

Creating a website is easy, but creating an engaging and exciting website is better. But just how can one do this? The key is to have business headshots of you and your team on the site. This is especially important if you have a website that’s full of text content, but no photos. Customers enjoy seeing photos on a site, as it breaks up the text in more easily consumable chunks.  

Have you noticed how not every website has business headshots? Yet if you’re ever seen professional headshots on a site you can see how the site appears more professional and legitimate. While you can submit your own photos, or have staff supply their own photos, it’s far better to hire a professional photographer to take your corporate headshots for you. Not only can the photos show everyone is on the same team, but they will also make your site look like you placed thought into it. The last thing you want is for your website to look thrown together. That’s all right for creating the framework, but then you should fill it in with quality content.  

Professional headshots will make your business, company, organization, or website look professional. Your company will have a professional appearance that means it’s capable of doing what it promises. It also helps with the branding of your company. 

Have you been putting off having this chore done? Please contact DuHon Photography right now. We’ll schedule your photography session immediately. Soon you’ll see the difference between having mediocre shots on your website, and having professional headshots of you and your team.
