1. Social Profiles

Considering how much time people spend on social media everyday (I'm on it right now) take a few minutes and optimize your profile photo and your cover photo on each channel. 

Standard image sizes for major social networks are as follows:

  • Facebook profile picture: 170 X 170 pixels

  • Facebook cover photo: 828 X 465 pixels

  • Twitter profile photo: 400 X 400 pixels

  • Twitter header image: 1,500 X 500 pixels

  • Google+ profile picture: 250 X 250 pixels (minimum)

  • Google+ cover photo: 1080 X 608 pixels

  • LinkedIn profile photo: 400 X 400 pixels (minimum)

  • LinkedIn custom background: 1584 X 396

  • LinkedIn cover photo: 974 X 330 pixels

  • LinkedIn banner image: 646 X 220 pixels

  • Instagram profile picture: 110 X 110 pixels

  • Pinterest profile picture: 150 X 150 pixels

  • YouTube profile picture: 800 X 800 pixels

  • YouTube cover photo: 2,560 X 1,440 pixels on desktop

2. Website

Your website promotes you 24/7 on the world wide web, showcase to people who are unfamiliar with your work exactly what you're about.

Pages that could include great images:

  • Home

  • About

  • Services

  • Testimonial

3. marketing collateral

Marketing collateral is your platform to tell your story. This platform provides many avenues for images to live.

Collateral Ideas:

  • Brochures

  • Banners

  • Case Studies

  • Sell Sheets

  • FAQs (which are very helpful for a disruptive technology)

4. PRINT ADvertising

Print is still a top-of-funnel medium. It’s really for establishing brand worthiness in the marketplace, for establishing the value of a brand, and for communicating very broadly, with broad reach, to the right target audience.

Forms of Print Advertising that still work: 

  • Newspaper

  • Magazines

  • Directories
