You with your dog doesn't cut it as a profile pic!

You with your dog doesn't cut it as a profile pic!

A picture is worth a thousand words. Using a photo with you and your dog, kids or spouse doesn't cut it for your social profile photo. 

Creating your personal brand is just as important as your corporate brand. So unless you are an award-winning dog breeder, trainer or groomer, having a profile picture of you and your dog just doesn't cut it. The same goes for a photo with you and your children, or your spouse. 

What is worse yet is having a profile picture of the infamous 'egg' on twitter or the silhouette on other social platforms. Do you know how many people won't follow you if you do not have a photo? According to HubSpot Twitter accounts with a profile photo have 10 times more follows than those without. 

Yikes! if you're looking for a job with a crazy picture of yourself on your LinkedIn profile - you do have a LinkedIn profile don't you? 

Oh -- and one more thing to consider. If you do have a photo -- is it truly you? In other words - not a photo of you 10 years ago...
