Being bold and imaginative with your visual branding can be difficult when you don't know how. Here's a few tips from me on how to, by just making some quick changes and implementing littles things within your imagery, captivate your audience and build brand loyalty.
Try to choose images based on the relevance of what you are posting and writing about. If you a post a quote on smiling women, then use a smiling woman photo. Use photos that support your message.
Do not use pixe...lated images – they give you a bad name. Pride yourself on taking pride in your business. Pixelated images will damage your brand image. Is your business blurry and difficult to read? NO… so don’t use them.
Use super eye-catching images. It doesn’t have to have massive overdone colouring or overlaid text. But think about the emotion you are trying to communicate. How do you want you tribe to feel? You want to build an emotional connection with your brand, how will you communicate that?
If a photo you are using lacks luminosity or sharpness, use the filters that are now readily available on most apps and social media uploads – they are there to make your business image look the best you can be.
Use well composed images that are well thought out. Greatness edge to edge.
Never use images that are copyrighted – EVER! Use C00 (100% commercial free images), there are plenty of site out there to download free content – which you find here: https://www.vickinicolson.com/150-tools/< br> See More
