People donโ€™t just read about a business.
They look at it.

They want to know:
Is this the right place?
Is it clean?
Is it high end?
Will I like the experience?

This is what visibility actually looks like.

Your images are answering questions before you ever speak to a client.

This is why intentional images matter.
Visibility isnโ€™t random. Itโ€™s strategic.

If you want to elevate how your business shows up online, letโ€™s talk.

Exciting news! ๐ŸŽ‰ I just published a new blog post that you won't want to miss!

Itโ€™s called: How Often Should You Update Your Professional Headshot and Business Images? ๐Ÿค”

In today's digital age, having a strong online presence is crucial for your professional success. And one key aspect of that is your headshot and business images.

Have you ever wondered how often you should update them to keep them fresh and relevant? Well, I've got you covered! In my latest blog post, I delve into this topic and share some helpful tips and insights.๐Ÿ’ก

Your professional headshot speaks volumes about you and your brand. It's often the first impression people have of you, so you want it to accurately reflect who you are now. That's why I recommend refreshing your headshot every quarter and at least every couple of years. Fashion trends change, hairstyles evolve, and you want to make sure your image doesn't appear outdated. Let's keep those positive first impressions coming! ๐Ÿ˜Š

But that's not all! In todayโ€™s blog I also discuss the importance of updating your business images beyond just the headshot & I tackle the question of how frequently a business should refresh its image library. I provide insights on when and why you should review and update your visuals. Trust me, you don't want potential customers questioning if you're still in business because they've seen the same image over and over again! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

So, if you're ready to give your business a fresh new look and enhance your online presence, here is the link to read the full blog post! ๐Ÿ“ฒ๐Ÿ’ปโœจ

Embrace, for a moment, the idea that everything is relative and relies on a point of reference for meaningful definition. It's comprehending darkness only through the presence of light. ๐ŸŒ—. This is the Universal Law of Relativity.

๐Ÿ’ซ Imagine growing up with someone who is your mirror image โ€“ your twin!

I was recently interviewed by Gail Kraft on the Empowering Process Podcast and explored this law of relativity in relation to business visibility.

Here is a quick episode description:
Our guest, Bonnie Dickson, shares her experiences of the highs and lows of being an identical twin. These experiences taught her valuable skills in identifying uniqueness in others & businesses. โœจ

๐Ÿš— During a recent road trip, Bonnie had an epiphany: her youth shaped her into the person she is today. Combining her skills and passion for photography, she now helps business owners leverage the power of visuals to showcase why people should choose to work with them. ๐Ÿ“ธ

Marketing... when you read this word you either have an immediate happy feeling or an immediate feeling of dread, am I right?

The word "marketing" got me thinking about some of the good and not-so-good experiences I've had when on the receiving end of marketing.

For example, have you ever come across a "free coaching call" that turned out to be a sales pitch with no actual coaching? Or maybe you've seen a promotion with a countdown that claims "only 24 hours left!" but the same offer is still available the following week?

Unfortunately, manipulative marketing tactics like these are all too common in today's business world. And as a result, many business owners feel guarded and hesitant about marketing offers they might receive from our businesses.

But don't worry, there's a better way to market your business! And if you caught last week's email then you will have heard a little about it already from me. (if you don't yet get my weekly business visibility tips email then sign up here: https://news.bonniedickson.com/news_and_tips )

I'm excited to invite you to the Authentic Marketing Summit, where we'll explore how to sell with honesty, authenticity, and integrity. You'll learn how to succeed without resorting to manipulative tactics that leave your customers feeling like they're not good enough.

Authentic Marketing is the key to building a successful and sustainable business that you can be proud of. Plus, it's the right thing to do!

Join us anytime throughout the day on Monday, May 15th from 11:00 AM to 5 PM EST for an interactive summit featuring live speakers (including me!) to help show you the way to market YOUR business authentically, for networking opportunities, hot seat coaching, and some exciting prizes.

I just had to share my excitement with you - I opened up my Facebook the other day and BOOM! Guess what I saw right at the top of my newsfeed?

Small Business Advisor, Susan Terzakis, updated her Facebook cover photo in the last few days and got amazing results - 26 likes and 12 comments, 38 interactions, all without spending a dime on ads!

If you've been following along with the content in the podcast episodes I've been sharing recently, then you know this isn't a new tip. But this is an example of how well it works, and the best part is, you can do the same for your business too!

Simply updating your social media cover photo with a new image that represents your business is a great way to remind your audience that you're still around and ready to serve them. LinkedIn also sends notifications to your connections when you update your banner photo, so make sure to turn that setting on too! (send me a DM if you are not sure how to find that setting).

As we enter the second quarter of the year, now is the perfect time to give your business a visibility boost. By using existing software and social media platforms to advertise for free, you can increase your online presence and reach out to potential customers.

So why not take just 10 minutes this week to update your cover photo and see what happens? Who knows, you might just get a flood of likes and comments too! And if you need any help with the process, feel free to reach out to me.

Let's make the most of this simple yet effective marketing technique to put our businesses in the spotlight!

Sunday Shout-out!

I recently had the pleasure of chatting with Marni, a brilliant web designer based in the Greater Toronto Area, and let me tell you, she had some serious wisdom to share.

We got into a fascinating discussion about why small businesses absolutely need a website in today's digital age. Her insights were so compelling that I just had to invite her to be a guest blogger and share her perspective with all of you.

So without further ado, I present to you Marni and her expert thoughts on why small businesses can't afford to ignore the power of a great website (it's a 4-minute read, enjoy!):
