What Makes A Great Profile Photo?

We know about your talent, and you do too, but do you let it shine through your profile photos?

Updated over a month ago

First impressions matter, especially for small events businesses looking to attract new customers online. Your photos are often the first thing potential clients will notice about your company, so it's crucial to make sure they're high-quality, eye-catching, and showcase what you do best.

You have just a few seconds to capture someone's attention - so make the most of it with these top tips:

πŸ’‘ Lighting is Everything.
​
Good lighting can transform your photos! Ditch the harsh shadows and bright spots. Instead, photograph your products & services in natural, even lighting.
​
πŸ”‘ Angles are Key.
​
Don't be afraid to get creative. Play around with different angles and perspectives to find the ones that make your services look their best. Own a food business? Those close-up, drool-worthy details might just get you a direct invite.
​
πŸ“Έ Background, Background, Background.
​
Keep it clean and simple. You want a backdrop that complements your services, not competes with them. Busy patterns or cluttered environments can overshadow the star of the show - your amazing business.
​
β€‹πŸ’œ Humanise Your Brand.
​
Don't forget to showcase your team in action. Share behind the scenes photos of the people behind your business & your experiences at previous events. This is a surefire way to build trust and connect with customers on a personal level.

πŸ“· Add Category-Specific Photos.
​
Adding category-specific photos is an often overlooked part of your profile that can have a HUGE impact. When a customer submits a quote, they're shown examples of suppliers to choose to invite directly. Having specific photos for every service you offer means you're more likely to show the customer what they want to see at this crucial period.

πŸͺ„Add Photos as Quote Attachments
​
Don't forget - photos aren't just for your profile! You can add your high quality photos as attachments to quotes for a 24% boost in your chances of getting booked.
