Humanize Your Online Presence to Build Trust and Loyalty

While the internet offers a fantastic way to communicate with your audience, it can also serve as a barrier if you hide behind your website. Adding a personal touch to your business by putting a face to your name can significantly enhance your connection with potential customers and clients.

The Importance of Showing Your Face

When potential customers see your face, you immediately become more relatable and trustworthy. Hiding behind an icon can damage feelings of trust and loyalty. Being perceived as a 'real person' can make or break your business.

Simple Ways to Personalize Your Business

  1. Create an 'About' Page: This is an effective way to share your story. Describe your background, how you got into your current business, and your interests and passions.
  2. Send Personal Emails: While you don't need to overshare, incorporating personal stories in your emails can be an effective way to connect with your audience.
  3. Utilize Social Media: Regularly post updates about your activities and interests. Sharing images of your life, both personal and professional, can help your audience feel more connected to you.

Engage with Your Community

If you run a local business, it's essential to engage with your community. Join your local Chamber of Commerce or start a Meetup group in your area. This can help you build relationships with other business owners and potential customers.

Start a Monthly Newsletter

Depending on your business model, consider running a monthly newsletter. Share shopping tips, new product updates, and more. This helps you maintain regular contact with your audience and keep them informed and engaged.

Be Genuine Online

The best advice is to stop trying to interact with an audience and instead start acting like a real person. Be genuine on your website and social media sites to foster stronger, more authentic connections.

By implementing these strategies, you can humanize your online presence, build trust, and increase customer loyalty.

Film School and God

It has been a while since I have updated these blogs. It has been a very busy road to Hollywood and I am loving every minute of it. The blessings I have been given, just getting out here are amazing, and now it is time to show what I can do. This is my first week in the LA FILM SCHOOL and it has been very interesting. After eight years of being out of school (last one being the Art Institute of Atlanta) and running my own studio for the past ten years, it is really hard to get back into the groove of school. It is slower that I am use too, but that should prove to be a good thing, as I am able to work on tons of projects at once and help out as many other students as possible. It is great to meet other Classmates with the same faith focus as I do. I pray God uses us all to do mighty projects that will help many people in need. My main goal is to make the best projects with great meaning to them. If these projects can go to film festivals, speak to the hearts of the culture and h

Changing Hollywood for Families

IndieCross Studios was formed to change Hollywood for families. Period. That is the reason for everything we do. The first episode of our new webisode series, "Makin It LA" is exactly that. From networking with passionate writers, actors, and filmmakers, to making films that they can showcase their talent with. From talking to families and viewers to see what they want to give them high-quality alternatives delivered straight to their televisions, computers, and mobile devices. This is a brand new way of doing "Hollywood". We are listening to the viewers, giving artists an outlet, and distributing the films directly to the people who want them. If you want to join the cause, go to www.indiecross.com, find out more about us, and get involved. We are changing lives in Hollywood, giving families what they want and building a "new way" of doing films. :) Layne McDonald
