Quick Tips: Your Online Presence = Your First Impression
Some of us don’t see ourselves through the lens of others and it’s so not about being judgmental. It’s about alignment. If you want to get paid your worth, you also have to see your worth. In today’s world, the first “hello” is usually online. Your photos, your tone, your content… they tell your story before you ever speak. Here are a few tips to elevate that digital first impression: 1. Ask Yourself: Would You Hire You? Look at your page like a stranger. Would you feel confident, inspired, or curious? Or confused? 2. Choose Photos That Match Your Energy Soft, professional, approachable or bold, creative, and powerful. Whatever it is, just make sure it’s intentional. 3. Take Feedback as Data, Not Criticism I was recently told I look too serious in my photos. Instead of getting offended, I received it with gratitude. It helped me reflect and shift my visuals to a softer, more inviting professional look. 4. Update Your Content Regularly People grow. Brands evolve. Your online presence should too. Refresh your photos and copy every so often. 5. Showcase Your Personality A smile, a warm color palette, or a relatable caption can completely change how people feel about you. 6. Remember: Visuals Communicate Value When your brand looks like a brand, people are more willing to pay you like one.
