Nick Nanton, Esq, The Celebrity Lawyer and Agent to Celebrity Experts discusses in a recent personal branding blog how a great picture can go a long way.

Orlando, Fla. – October 15, 2010 – Co-founder of the Dicks and Nanton Celebrity Branding Agency® and best-selling author, Nick Nanton, Esq., recently published a blog on his website http://www.DicksNantonAgency.com, explaining the importance of having a great picture when implementing your personal branding strategy.

The blog, titled “Personal Branding: A Great Picture Can Go A Long Way”, expounds on the phrase, “If you want people to know you, they have to SEE you!” Nick explains how “Choosing the right photo of yourself and using it consistently can be one of the easiest and most effective things you can do right now to provide a foundation for you personal branding strategy.” The blog includes the following excerpt on being consistent:

With so many places online to represent yourself, it is extremely important to be consistent with your photos.  Once you get a professional photo shoot, I suggest choosing 2 or 3 of your favorite, preferably with the same background and/or attire.  This way, you can spread these images out across twitter, facebook, linkedin, etc without using the same photo, but keeping the same theme throughout.  I would also suggest these photos being the same ones that are used on your website.

You want to be consistent with your photos in the same way you are consistent with your marketing message.  Using a quality photo to build your personal brand is the first image and impression that people get of you.  It’s easy to do, and it could mean the difference between a “walk in the door” or just a “drive-by.”
