Business Image - Use Yours To Raise Your Credibility
By Joshua Feinberg
Business images are formed with or without your express consideration. You may have the best intentions regarding your image but if you choose the wrong marketing strategy the image you project might be all wrong.
Your image should be one of professionalism and credibility. This is the type of image your sweet spot clients are looking for in IT service providers. To manage your image effectively you need to manage your expectations and set the tone for how you want your company to be perceived even before you meet people.
Consider this, a computer technician has lettering on the
side of his van advertising the services he offers and his prices. The image he is projecting says that his services should be viewed as a commodity. His van is a mobile Yellow Page ad that shouts out high volume, low cost.
This is not the type of image you want to portray. If you want to be perceived as a highly professional computer consultant you need to protect your image at all times. Just as a lawyer or CPA would not advertise their services like this, neither should you.
When you start to develop marketing plans and advertising campaigns, make sure you factor in what image they will project. These are really important decisions for you to make and they will determine for a large part, your perceived credibility, profile, and reputation.
Bottom Line on Business Image
Your image is an important asset. You can't afford to squander it by making poor marketing and advertising decisions. When developing ideas to promote your always consider the effect your actions will have on your image. Business image is very easy to create even if it is one you don't necessarily want. Changing a image is much more difficult. Do yourself a favor and start your image off on the right foot right from the start.
