When was your professional Realtor photo taken?

Now this is a great subject being brought up.  There has been many of times I met someone and wonder what happened to the person that is on the card.  Although the throw back look could potentially get you some interesting business. ha ha

 I didn't want to write this post, but I felt impelled after meeting an agent earlier this week.  When I first saw her website and photo, I remember thinking that she needed to update her hairstyle a little, but she looked very professional.  When she walked into my office, I thought she'd sent her mother (who coincidentally had a modern hairstyle).

My point is that she was still an attractive, well presented, professionally appearing Realtor.  She just appeared to be a completely different person than who I was expecting.  I just don't understand why many Realtors don't update their photos more often; at least every other year.

I guess my point is this: if you look at your professional photo and it looks like the photo to the left, or if in the photo you have roller-coaster bangs and are wearing shoulder pads, you should consider getting an updated photo.  I believe our clients are expecting us to look like our picture.

Please feel free to disagree.

It's kind of like the photos that people put on facebook - from about 20 years ago. Great blog.

Exactly Jody... I have seen some less say interesting pictures of people that could be used as blackmail. ha ha
