Some fun to raise a profile!
A local client of mine, Mark Beresford of Buxton Beresford Financial Planning, is having a new website site designed, structured and populated with loads of great info and tips. One of the things Mark wants is an aspect to the site (and his wider marketing) that promotes a bit of personality. Mark is the first to admit that Financial Planning is a bit dry, very important for your future lifestyle, but still a bit 'paperworky'. The ideas we came up with are designed to just show Mark as a personality. Afterall, the person you do business with is vital to an ongoing cohesive relationship. We have a list of ideas but kicked off with the 'mannequin'.To do this we sort the help of Bob Goodridge at John Goodridge Menswear in Farnham. Bob was happy for us to use his window as a set; although I think he was a bit bemused by the whole thing!The shop is on Downing Street in Farnham which we wanted to get in the various shots, so that even if a local person wasn't familiar with Bob's shop, they would hopefully associate with Downing Street.Quite a few people passing knew either me or Mark so there was a bit of leg pulling but it was fun to do and after the editing this is the result.Corporate or Business photography can take on many guises, from office scenes depicting your own staff and factory manufacturing processes showcasing 'behind the curtain' insights to character portraits and company events, to name a few. The thing is, photos can do all sorts of things for your business and in this day and age they are a major tool to getting your name and your message out there.In Marks case these a bit of fun to lighten things up.
