Put a face on your business

There's a LOT to love about doing business over the Internet. It's fast, global, inexpensive, and very efficient. But one of the big negatives is that it's also highly impersonal.
When you're dealing with people halfway across the world, via computers, there's not a lot that can be done to make it overly personal, but there are a few things that you can and should do.

Above is an image.  Is it your smiling face or is it just a placeholder that says "No Photo Available?"
If it's your photo, you are to be commended for getting your photo in place already.  But if it's the "dreaded placeholder," you definitely have an item on your to-do list to take care of.  That is, you need to get a photo of yourself uploaded...as soon as possible! Once uploaded and approved, you'll receive 35 VersaPoints. Uploading your account photo also takes care of one of the six qualifications for entering the big E365 contest.
But those aren't even the big reasons for uploading your photo.  Here's what is: Adding your photo is one of the easiest and simplest ways to add personalization and let the members of your team know you are a real, live person–not just a name and number on a computer screen. 
You see, we use your photo in SFI in multiple ways, including in the welcome that the new affiliates you sponsor will see.  Your welcome, accompanied by your smiling face, will help you make those very important great first impressions!
Your account photo is also used on leaderboards, recognition pages, in TeamMail communications with your team, and more.  In all cases, having your photo in place adds professionalism and personalization…which will help you maximize your SFI income.

One more thing: It's important that you portray a professional image with your photo. Using icons or pictures of pets, children, and others may only serve to distract from your business image. It’s VITAL that you are using a good photo of yourself, with a friendly, smiling face.  Make sure your photo is in-focus, well-lighted (dark photos are bad), and look at the camera.  And no sunglasses, please!  Take this seriously!  If you don’t have a good photo to use right now, have a friend or family member take a new photo of you and get it uploaded now.  Transmitting friendliness and professionalism is KEY.  Consider dressing up!  Remember, this is going to be your first impression with your new PSAs.  If your photo is unprofessional or “scary,” (or if you don’t have an account photo at all), your business will definitely suffer because of it.
