Feeling zoomed out?
Being virtual vs Being pretty
A friend of mine refused an invite over Zoom because she said that the weekends were her “down” time and she was burned out from all the meetings during the week for work. Totally understandable. Another friend I tried to call on a Saturday afternoon but within minutes she excused herself as she was busy crafting her newsletter and was “in the zone” Anyway you slice it we are always online.
Many of my fellow business owners are learning the tech, marketing and SEO skills needed to get their websites more visibility. Maybe they are hosting a virtual talk, being interviewed on a podcast or dabbling in building a YouTube channel. Social media is more than just a place to share baby photos.
If you’re lucky enough to work from home then you are still client facing except now it’s over ZOOM and Google Hangout. We are connecting online virtually, now and forever more, across all industries and even I pivoted when the pandemic hit me hard in March last year. I was on location for NBC Law and Order -SVU and we had just done a take in a Bronx neighborhood when the assistant director wrapped our show for the day. I found out later on the News that a Covid-19 case tested positive at a public school near our shoot and as I unpacked my kit I had no idea when I would pick up my makeup brushes again. The way you look on camera represents your overall story, image, energy and brand. Never has there been a more important time than right now to learn how to get that makeup and image done right. Collaboration over video conferencing like Zoom will continue to rise as more companies restructure the office and how you look and sound on these platforms have never been so important as they are now. How are you showing up?
Working exclusively online offering virtual beauty sessions through my business allowed me to work with so many clients. Many of whom I have never met in person. San Francisco, Atlanta and Canada were some of the locations where my clients were based. I was feeling useful and actually having fun connecting virtually and being resourceful as a business owner.
Maybe it’s ok for you to wear chapstick and a top knot but would that be ok for a job interview?
I launched my first online program last October called The Dynamic Video Blueprint and my clients loved the coaching I did around image and makeup for camera so much that I’ve designed a facebook challenge!
