If you have a promo, event or anything like that coming up bring your branding photos into the printed pieces to keep your branding consistent and recognizable!
12. website
The most obvious option, but also the biggest impact on your clients:
your website.
Infuse your entire website with your branding photos - not just one photo on your About page. Sprinkle those branding photos all throughout your website so people browsing around will know exactly who you are and what it's like to work with you!
