Competition in the social media newsfeed has never been so fierce. With Facebook and Instagram now applying formulas to posts that determine who sees what, your images need to be on point to be seen. And it’s not just about views – to get social media working for your business, you need your fans to engage with your content. This may be a like, a comment or, even better, a share or repost. Having great, well styled photos is essential if you want to stand out in today’s digital world. You have your audience’s attention for a second and you need to capture them before they scroll onto the next thing. Poor photos can really let your brand down and even worse, see your fans lose interest and unfollow you.
