LAST CHANCE QLD! EOFY ! GET YOUR TEAM BUSINESS PHOTOS DONE NOW!
In terms of business expenses, professional photography is often an item on the list that is seen as expendable. Whether you’re a new business just starting out or a well established business, the cost of professional photography might prompt you to wonder if you might be able to get by without it.
After all, you could just take some pictures yourself. Or use stock photos. There are other, more important things you should be spending your organization’s funds on than professional photography, right?
Wrong.
The truth is that every business in every industry can benefit greatly from professional photography. No matter who your customers are or what you are selling, high quality photography is an important asset that will contribute to your overall success. When it comes to business expenses that are absolutely worth it, professional photography should be at the top of the list.
1. A Picture is Worth A Thousand Words
You’ve probably heard this adage before. These days pictures are worth at least a thousand words – probably more! Photos enable you to show your clients and customers what you have to offer rather than tell them. In this day and age, consumers like to see things for themselves before making a decision about a purchase. The internet has made this increasingly possible, which means photos and videos of your products and offerings are more valuable than ever before.
2. Customers Want to Get To Know YOU
Stock photos are one alternative that some organizations consider when they feel a photo shoot with a professional photographer might be out of reach. While stock photos are certainly helpful for some purposes, they are not the best way to showcase your business. Why? Because they are not photos of your business.
When people visit your website, they want to get to know you! Stock photos don’t help them do that – and they could give people a false impression of what you have to offer. The best way for potential customers to get to know your business is by showing them actual photos of your business, your team members, and your products.
3. Professional Headshots
Headshots portray professionalism in your business whether you have a large group of staff or even if you are the face of your own brand.
4. Images Can Help You Get Found On the Web
If your business has a website, you may have heard of search engine optimization, or SEO. SEO is the practice of strategically optimizing various elements of your website in an effort to help it perform better in the search engine ranking results. There are many elements to SEO, and one element is images.
Optimized photos can help your website get found in the image results and perform better in the overall search results. They can also help to engage customers and keep them on your site for longer, or encourage them to choose you over a competitor.

4. Professional Photos are Versatile Assets
When it comes to marketing your business online, you have probably heard the phrase “content is king.” This has been the case for a while now, and it definitely still holds true. But what many don’t realize is that photos are content – and they are a powerful, versatile form of content at that.
Online, photos can be used to make your website infinitely more engaging. They can be used to build your brand on social media, including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Google+ and more. They can also be featured in blog posts and articles – the possibilities are endless.
Offline, photos can be used in brochures and promotional materials of all kinds. By investing in professional photography, you provide yourself with new, helpful ammunition that can be used to enhance your marketing efforts in a plethora of ways.
