Hey folks Keith Luscher here for another Prospect & Flourish Every Day moment. Hey, do people
know what you look like? I don't mean do they know what you looked like twenty years ago
but do they know what you look like today? Do you have a current photograph that you
use for business purposes, whether it's your LinkedIn profile or your Facebook business
page or anything else, or on your business card?
If you don't there's no excuse for that. Just go get one. You can hire a professional photographer
but if you don't have the resources for that then there's another simpler option: with
digital cameras with smartphones, go outside and have it done. Get it shot. Do it in natural
light. Do it outdoors with foliage in the background, spring's right around the corner--we
hope--and get it done.
No selfies! Okay? That's one thing--don't hold the phone up, where they can count your
nose hairs. And don't shoot with deer in the headlights against a blank wall. I'm amazed
at how many people do that. I see it all the time. But it's a great solution it's easy
and you can crop it out. You can snap several and pick your favorite one. It's what I use
for mine, on my Facebook, on LinkedIn on the back of my book--that is outdoors. Granted
in my case the camera adds 20 pounds not ten, but that notwithstanding, it works.
So that's today's tip. Tips to share, questions to be answered, everyday@prospectandflourish.com.
Thanks a lot. See you tomorrow.
