Real Estate Agent Headshots - Let The Fun Begin! : )

By
Real Estate Technology with AgencyLogic

It's no secret that people do judge a book by it's cover. Some say people with beards are 'more credible ' 

but are less effective when trying to sell underwear, who knew?

And so to REALTOR headshots. Do people judge a REALTOR based on the accuracy, or otherwise, of the photo on their business card? You judge - which one is your favorite?

Our first category - 'agents in hats':

 

 

And onto an alcohol theme:

 

 

Then the 'phone stuck to my ear!' group:

 

 

The 'my head will fall off if I don't prop it up' collection:

 

 

The 'comedy sells' shots:

 

 

And lastly the 'what the!' photos (yes, I know there's a dupe, but he's our favorite):

Those are too darn funny.  What is up with the creepy doll on the lady's lap.  And those phones that have cords on them.....  what decade did those come from?

Luckily my head shot is just that.  

Thanks for the laugh today.

Not sure which one is my favorite, they all give me a chuckle. One of my pet peeves is the head shot where the person is leaning so far to the right or the left that you have to tilt your head just to get a straight look at the person. I just don't know why photographers do that!

Hi Stephen --- I came here via the reblog by Belinda Spillman.  It was fun to see you highlight ActiveRain member and friend Craig Rutman with not one but two photos.

Thank you Michael Jacobs! Like I said when the original Buzzfeed article came out, I could care less if they were mocking or praising me for my unique style of branding. All I know is that they linked my pics to my web site. My traffic was way up following the article, AND my phone rang! I've closed a bunch of deals as a direct result of the exposure (I always ask my folks how they found me), and I still have some in my pipeline. So, all I can say is.... THANK YOU BUZZFEED!

Yeah, Craig Rutman!    I know you're an agent who knows how to get things done in the Cary - Raleigh North Carolina markets you serve so well.  It's great hear the original article created some well-deserved and  obviously much appreciated potential new leads for you.

It is so strange that some realtors do not change their headshots for years and often even decades....I'm sure some of those you used are still active realtors with the same pictures on their cards and signs:)
