How to Use Branding Photos for Marketing Your Business

Branding photos are an essential tool for businesses looking to promote their brand online. In this article, I will show you a few creative ways that you can use them.

Photos of you - how to develop that know, like & trust factor with Branding Photos.

All things being equal - the person who shows themselves in their marketing will develop their know, like and trust factor faster than someone who doesn’t. And, posting photos of yourself in your marketing is a great way to stay top of mind for the audience that you have already built. The more content you create, the more people will think your business is viable, growing and current. The thing with branding photos, is that you don’t have to always show a forward facing, eyes to camera smiling face. You can show yourself working, dealing with customers, and giving talks, to name a few. The more you show yourself “out there” in the world, the more people will see you as someone who is an active entrepreneur and a visible part of your community.

If you are someone who posts on social media, you know it can be difficult to keep coming up with fresh content. Having photos of yourself in multiple scenarios doing your business is a great way to build posts.

Remember, people have short attention spans, your photos help to grab their attention and imprint a visual into their brain.
