alone4ever Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Hello everyone!I was wondering for a long time, does the profile picture affect more than you think? and what I mean with affect can be positively or negatively.Does it effect your sales or how many people will click on your profile or gig?!I mean let’s be honest, there is a lot of theories (I will not mention them) in Psychology say that having a profile picture of your face your true face it’s not the same as to have a picture of nature or logo or other things.And let’s don’t forget that there is a lot of profile pictures type (for your face).I assume that a lot of people will say: “If your gig is good that’s all matter”.I’m posting this topic to see all of your opinions mine isn’t clear yet for multiple reasons.Thank you! 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topned Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I’ve seen many level 2 and top rated sellers who don’t use a picture of themselves in their profiles. I believe there is something more than just profile photos that attract buyers to sellers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vickiespencer Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I had a buyer say one of the reasons she chose me to work for her was because of my profile picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So these sellers would still be selling using other images than their own photos as their profile pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somaginer1996 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 As long as it’s not something super outlandish (an edgy, offensive picture, an obviously fake or pixellated image, etc.), it’s probably fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, it adds credibility. I don’t mind if a seller uses some kind of logo or caricature, but as soon as I see a stock photo or a photo of a celebrity, I tend to move on.How can I trust a copywriter who uses someone else’s photo? I’ll start worrying maybe they will steal someone else’s content as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momnaikram970 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Obviously, It is a connection between you and your buyer. It’s always good to introduce yourself towith your profile picture rather than hiding your identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shubhamdahale Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 yes i think so because if you have a professional look in your profile picture it helps you to stand out between sellers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeus777 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Depending on what your profile pic looks like, potential buyers can just say “Nope” and go look for other sellers, so yes, it does.In most cases when I see a photo of an actor/actress/model/TV celebrity/comic characterwhich has nothing to do with the gig, that’s a pretty clear sign for me.

topned Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 For branding purposes some sellers use logos of their business rather than their personal photos and it still works. Think of the outside world there are many successful businesses such as Walmart, Target, McDonalds, etc that use logos rather than the photos of the owner.

jazmove Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Yes, It does but not much. If you add your profile picture, a trust is built between buyer & seller. But It really doesn’t affect much, as there are also other TRS which don’t use their profile pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
