Why Your Headshot Matters More Than You Think (and How to Finally Update Yours)
I’ve honestly lost count of the number of times someone has said to me, “I know I need a new headshot, but I just haven’t gotten around to it.” If that sounds familiar—you’re not alone.
As small business owners and professionals,, we wear a lot of hats. Updating your headshot always seems to land at the bottom of the list. But here’s the truth: your headshot is often the first impression people have of you online. It’s your digital handshake. And in today’s world, that matters.
Why a Professional Headshot Is Worth It
Think about the last time you Googled a business owner, checked out a LinkedIn profile, or browsed a website. Chances are, you made a quick decision based on what you saw. Was the headshot professional and approachable? Or was it a blurry photo cropped from a family gathering?
A clean, modern headshot communicates you are a professional wanting to attract business. You also look consistent across your online sites and profiles. It’s not just a picture. It’s a simple but powerful tool to grow your online presence or just keep your profile updated.
Why People Put It Off
I get it—life is busy. Between running a business, serving clients, and managing family life, scheduling a headshot feels like one more thing on a never-ending to-do list. That’s why so many people put it off for years.
I also get that maybe you like the way you look 10 years ago when you took your last ones… We all liked the way we looked when we were younger, but let me tell you that keeping your headshot updated is important because when you meet people you want to look like you!
But here’s the good news: it doesn’t have to be time-consuming or complicated.
