5 reasons why having professional photos is important
According to a statistic which OKCupid’s research has recently backed up, 90% of people decide to date someone based on their dating photos alone.
They concluded that the text is less than 10% of what people think of you.⠀
1. Your dates are better able to connect with you
People spend more time looking at your photograph than anything you’ll ever write. People naturally study each other’s faces, and it’s a well-known psychological fact that we assume a lot about a person based on how we perceive them (even if it isn’t fair!). If your potential date thinks you look friendly, likeable and trustworthy, it makes them feel more comfortable and encourages them to connect with you.
2. You'll feel more like a professional compared to others
We live in a digital age. Even potential clients and employers get online and research people before ever considering doing business with them. They form a first impression of the person from the minute they click on their website or LinkedIn page. Therefore, you must show yourself in the best possible light…⠀
In addition, having high-quality pictures of your daily life makes you more desirable to your dates.
3. When you feel more professional, you act more professional
Professional photos are an investment. Make sure to use them as an asset that never gets old and works for you as a salesman for decades!
4. It’s all about making a connection
People like to do business with others they know. Having a great photosession helps people feel like they already know you.
It grows your network, which is your net worth 😉
5. It is therapeutic, it turns on your creativity and boosts your confidence
It makes you feel good to look your best.
Especially if you prepare yourself for the photo session, you may find a professional stylist who will help you to look lovely, a hairdresser and a make-up artist. Posing is an excellent exercise to see your best “angles”, as also it is always pleasant to learn new skills from a professional.
