In the business world, a GOOD first impression is crucial. It determines how you are seen and how you are responded to.

The reason why it is so powerful is because of how human brain works. There is an old saying “Never judge a book by its cover” but we, as humans, are intrinsically inclined to judge people, whether we want it or not. One of the first things people pay attention to when meeting someone for the first time is the way they dress. According to studies conducted by researchers in the U.K. and Turkey, something as simple as a suit a man wears can have a significant impact on how he is perceived.

First impressions have the ability to make or break a business, and a positive experience can create long-lasting business relationships. In the age of social media and internet this is how majority of our first business contacts are made – online. That is why it is so important to have a professional headshot – which is your online business card.

So, when it comes to the first impression you make on your potential clients, employers or casting directors, makes sure that it is A GOOD ONE.

 

Think about your potential clients – they want to deal with people, not companies. And behind every company, there is a person, with arms and legs, and … a face. Your business brand or corporate identity may be what spurs a client to give your company a call, but it is you, and the people in your business, who help establish that important long-term business relationship with your client.

The way YOU look in your “face business card” will determine if your clients see you as trustworthy and reliable.
