Let’s Talk Product Shots and More…

Let’s Talk Product Shots!

Now’s a Very Good Time to add New Products to your websites.. Product Shots especially. First, let me say Product Shots are Not the Same as Social Media posts!

Why? Product Shots need to be simpler. Did I say boring? Definitely not! A social media post, may be ‘Telling a Story’ – Product Shots need to highlight the Products you sell. No misunderstanding of What your Product is! Let’s Get Started…

This is wonderful Product Shot! Why? it’s Simple, it’s Clear that this is a Soap, it’s tied with Twine and has a Tag, and.. it’s sitting on a Towel. (just make sure, the viewer knows whether you sell towels or Not!) Let’s look at another one!

This Product Shot is very good. It’s a Tote Bag. Tote Bags are sort of a sore point with me. Please don’t share them Flat on your Product Page- Flat Totes just aren’t as attractive when you show them as a Product Shot! Unless, it’s an alternative photo. Get some brown paper, newsprint or tissue paper, crunch it up and stuff those Totes! Yes, on social media and Yes, on Product Pages! Remember Flat Totes just aren’t as attractive done as a flat display! I would say something similar about Coffee or Tea Mugs. They can have the cutest quip or the most attractive Design...yet if they’re sitting there Alone– no attractive add on.. you get it! Add a small napkin, why not a few crumbs? A spoon? Anything simple. Just take my word on this!

I was going to add More! Yet, I had a Brilliant Idea! Why not share the Download that goes along with this Segment in ‘Be Unforgettable’ Yes, there’s a Segment devoted to Product Shots in my course! I rarely share the downloads, especially because they are for course students only! This is a good Exception to make!

Here’s What I want for your Business:

  • Clarity around What you Do, Create or Sell.
  • How to Express Your Values
  • Know how to Style your Social Media including Product Pages
  • Write Content with Confidence
  • How to bring your Viewer in, take them on a journey to being your Customer.

Whether you Become a Student in my course or not, I hope to give you enough information here and on Instagram to get you started down the road to success!

I’ve seen it happen with folks I’ve helped. I know it can happen for you! So.. Drumroll..

Here’s your Download – I know, I know, not another PDF? Well, this one is Full of Information and not too Long either! Product Shots There you go!

I hope you can use this information as you update your Online Shop or Website!

Love y’all, Brenda

It’s a Wonderful Time…

Hello! It’s July, can you believe it? I can’t either… Before we get started- bear with me about July. Treat this month as a New Beginning- like a Second New Year! New Beginnings are always filled with Hope. Fresh Starts.

Think about what you Hope to Achieve. Set some Goals, write a list if you need to. Work on Steps you need for Personal or Business Growth. The garden here is brimming with Growth! July… a garden grows one sprout, one leaf at a time. It doesn’t happen overnight. Same thing with you- Small Steps each day, grows a life, a business. Just as you Nurture a Garden- Nurture your Audience. Find Occasions to Encourage them, invite them into your world. Put out the Welcome Mat.

And don’t forget July is a good time to Nurture yourself, your business and Grow! If you’ve already joined Be Unforgettable– my online course.. There’s an Announcement at the End of this Post! It’s a good one, I promise.

Now.. what about that Subject Line? It’s a Wonderful Time! It is.. Especially a good time to build a Brand! What are you crazy? I heard you. Even a great time to Rebrand. Yess, it is. Why? Uncertainty.

Build a Brand. Did you know that there were certain businesses that Grew and Thrived during the Great Depression in the 1920’s? It’s True. The Film Industry, Entertainment, Aviation, Insurance Companies- Fire, Life, Banking and Mortgage Insurance. It’s amazing. If you’re thinking- Whoa, that’s Big Business and I’m not Doing any of that? Well, consider this: the Candy Bar Market, exploded in popularity! It’s True.

Build a Brand. Get clear on What you do.. Or, Would Do. Uncertainty creates Needs. If you Build a Brand right now.. you will be in a Position to Meet those Needs.

How will you Build it? Make it personal. Tell how you’ve become who you are Today. Even better if you’re Older. Wiser. Tell What you would do differently now. (your Age is an Asset, your experience is Invaluable.)

These are the Main Components of a Brand. I can help you with this if you need it.

Here we go with More Reasons…

Why Build it? When you share how You Solved Life Problems, you may help others – Earn extra Money, find Meaning, build Confidence. Depending on the Solutions you offer- it’s possible, you may Save Lives or Livelihoods.

Build a Brand that solves Problems. You will help others solve their problems. I didn’t say All Problems. Build a Brand based on how You’ve Solved a Problem, even more than one. Make Life easier in Uncertainty. The Time is Right.

No matter if you’re Employed or Retired, there’s Always Uncertainty. No one expected a pandemic, no one expected mass layoffs in 2023 in the Tech Sector. Thoughts swirl around all of the ‘What If’s . That’s where Building a Brand becomes a Positive. It doesn’t have to be built fast.

It does need Attention and Intention. If you’ve wanted to Build a Brand that’s great. If you want something as a backup plan? Well, that’s great too. Do it for Fun. Do it for you. Build a Brand.

Something I’ve truly enjoyed doing, is to have a Private Group Chat right inside Instagram. Unforgettables Only. I’ve been sharing a few tips and whoa there are folks inside there who Really know what they’re doing! One just made the Amazon Best Seller list! And.. they Share Insights also! The Price of Admission? The price of my course. (I know shameless plug, though it’s affordable, I promise) Would love to have you join us! Love y’all, Brenda

The biggest compliment of All would be if you shared this post with someone who may Need it. Thank you.
