Do you have one minute <strong>to read<\/strong>\u00a0and one hour<strong>\u00a0to do<\/strong>?\u00a0If so, you can improve your small business\u2019 marketing in a big way.\u00a0Each week, we will provide new ideas.\u00a0Grab your morning beverage and let\u2019s get started!<\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #33cccc\"><strong>THIS WEEK\u2019S TOPIC: TAKE TEAM PHOTOS<\/strong><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Your team is awesome. They are one of your company\u2019s best assets. However, we are willing to bet you don\u2019t have enough photos of them on your social platforms and website.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #33cccc\">5 EASY STEPS<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><b>Step One: <\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Brainstorm to come up with 5 ideas for different photos of your team in action.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><b>Step Two:<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Determine if you will need to have any props ready? Try not to stage more than two shots of your staff working at their computers. Get creative!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><b>Step Three:<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Let everyone on your team know what day of the week you will be taking photos so they can be ready.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><b>Step Four<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">:<\/span> Stage and take the different photos. (If one doesn&#8217;t turn out, be prepared to abandon or retake the shot, rather than using a sub-par photo.)<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><b>Step Five:<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Get in the habit of being on the lookout for photo ops at any time, and you won\u2019t have to stage them in the future. Better yet, assign this job to a staff member.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Note: Even if you are a team of one, you can improvise to make this work. Take a photo with a customer or supplier, have a friend take photos of you filling a client order or attending an industry conference, etc.)<\/span><\/p><p><strong>Once you post them, step back and observe your platforms and website, as if for the first time. See if these new photos don&#8217;t help distinguish your company&#8217;s platform from your competitors. Who wouldn&#8217;t feel more comfortable working with real people instead of with a faceless corporate group.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ma_el_bg_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-22fbb78 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default jltma-glass-effect-no\" data-id=\"22fbb78\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ma_el_bg_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-da67596 jltma-glass-effect-no\" data-id=\"da67596\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31428b2 elementor-widget-divider--view-line jltma-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"31428b2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1adb869 jltma-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1adb869\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Want new marketing tips each week?\u00a0<\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/greyecreative.com\/staging\/8397\/newsletter\"><b>Subscribe<\/b><\/a><b>.<\/b><\/p><p><b>Like our simple but proactive approach to marketing your small business?\u00a0<\/b><\/p><p><b>Check us out at <a href=\"https:\/\/greyecreative.com\/staging\/8397\">www.smallbizbrands.com<\/a><\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5e8f62 elementor-widget-divider--view-line jltma-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"c5e8f62\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ma_el_bg_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f2b43c4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default jltma-glass-effect-no\" data-id=\"f2b43c4\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ma_el_bg_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-54a0f88 jltma-glass-effect-no\" data-id=\"54a0f88\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good morning!
