Photos equal engagement
Social media marketing research is only confirming what I have known all along – if you want to get attention use photography.
Photography, especially well produced professional photography has always been an attention getter for business communications. Good images always attract eyeballs. In social media marketing photography makes your message stand out and increases your engagement.
If you goal is to gather as many likes, comments and shares of your posts the best tool you have is photography. Build your, brand, amplify your message and increase your engagement rate with your online audience by including photography with all of your posts.
What kind of photos work best?
Photography builds engagement with your social media audience. This random photo from my archives most likely caught your attention and may have motivated you to read my post. Contact me at info@testoftimephoto.com for more information on my commercial photo services and how you can use my photography in your business communications.
The quality of the images you use will impact your rate of engagement. Certainly a snapshot from your cell phone will be better than a simple text post but an original high quality photograph is more effective. Include images that will grab the viewer’s attention, that feature your products and services and that tell your narrative. Technical flaws distract viewers and leave a negative impression.
Consider the value of investing in the services of a professional photographer to produce your image archive. A professional headshot for your online profiles is an essential first step in your online marketing and personal branding. Event photography, product shots, and promotional photography will look its best when done by a pro and not as a DYI project. If your goal is to build your audience, use original and interesting photography created by a pro. The old cliché’ “A picture is worth a thousand words” rings true today. It also worth many likes, clicks and increased Edgerank.
