No and No. No picture = more room for how to contact me + less frequent needs to update signs & cards with updated pictures.

My photo is on my business card; not on my signs.
I did used to have my picture on my signs and I found them to be impactful. I was always running into people telling me they saw my signs everywhere or insisting we had previously met (when we hadn't). It think the picture is what connected with them. Once I stopped using my photo I don't get people telling me they see my signs everywhere. I used to have people stop me in the supermarket and ask if I was Nina Hollander and could they ask me some questions about real estate. This doesn't happen any more. I may have to rethink putting my picture back on my signs.

My photo on cards only not on my sign. When I first started real estate a female agent told us (other new agents and I) that she put her photo on her sign. At one point she was getting all kinds of calls, sometimes referring to her photo. So she suggested that we don't put any photos on our sign.

Fred,
We have never been fans of photos of business cards nor on our signs. Real estate is a business. Having our background in commercial real estate is where my influence has come from on the subject. We dealt with CEO's of iconic companies, entertainment (movie and music) firms, attorney firms, and other professionals. I never saw a picture on any of those cards. And to this day, I do not see them. A

No photos on my business cards or signs.
I'm not on a team, but if I were, I probably would not use a team photo. The more people in the photo, the less our eyes are drawn to it. If you look at a magzine spread or something like that, your eyes are drawn to a single person before they are drawn to the crowd shot.

On card yes, on signage no. I keep my signs simple because I want people to still be able to read them while driving by at 35 or 50 mph.

I do have my picture on my business cards. It helped during COVID when you were meeting someone while wearing a face mask. I do NOT put them on my yard signs. It's not about me at that point, but the property.

No and no.
Long ago I stopped. People need to contact me for the right reason.
Also, photo takes space from the most important thing - phone number.

I have my picture and logo on my biz card. My logo looks like my picture. When I used to do yard signs, I had the logo and not my picture.

No pictures on my yard signs. All of the agents in our office use the same signs. I do have a two-sided business card with a small photo on one side.

I started putting this "branding" photo on anything and everything including yard signs, busines cards, ads, flyers. No one recognizes me from it and that's ok. I just like the "branding" of that image which is different from anyone else around here. I did start using a different photo on my corporate Facebook page. But it's still different from the usual head shot.

No picture on sign or card - Brokerage rule which I wholeheartedly support When I used to work with Buyers, they would often ridicule the listing agent picture on the signs. I don't find the photos to be professional and detracts from the info that is needed.

No on business cards, No on yard signs, No if i was in a group. I see many yard signs that are so cluttered I can't read them when I drive by. I used to see yard signs where half the sign was taken up by an ancient "Glamour Shot". They looked awful for one, and the name, url, and phone# were so small they were hard to read.

Always pix on card never pix on signs. That is the way I learned it in 1996 when my career began and seems appropriate still today.
