Thursday, April 1st, 2010How much more connected do we feel after meeting someone that we have spoken with many times on the phone. Have you ever thought what the person on the other end of the phone looks like when you haven’t met?
There are different ways of getting more connected even when you can’t meet face to face. Studies show a good photograph of yourself helps bond you with the people you touch remotely. It creates a feeling of familiarity and trust valued by clients and comrades alike. Relationship marketing is a key to long lasting professional friendships. Many professional photographers can easily come to your place of business and offer corporate headshots, to update old photos or to add on the new staff for publicity photos. To help your relationship marketing make sure you have appropriate quality photos on your signature line, your website and your social media. Remember to keep them updated so people see the real you!!!
