Goofiness can be a great brand if it works hand-in-hand with what you’re doing as a profession or person. If you’re in a public position having to win people’s attention, it could work quite well as part of your brand. If you are a funeral director, maybe not so much… ;>}

I think my brand is goofball for Brandon Hall Research. CEO Richard Nantel recently described my blogging as ‘entertaining.’ Not sure if that would equate with not being taken seriously (or if that’s even how others see it). Humor, I think is good, for most business. I like your goofball shot. I actually like the two shots used together.

WEll Fun is essential yes(:-)))
Your two Photos I read very differently,
The ” standard” iswith the camera looking up at a person in full command .
The goof? is the camera looking down at a beautiful woman looking up admiringly at someone above!
YES – BE BOTH
with integrity.
CARRY ON!
Gb.

Thanks so much for all your responses.
@ Steve: I guess it’s a question of knowing when and when not to be a goofball. First impressions are important, and I guess my main concern is how one is perceived professionally when the first impression is being goofy.
@ Janet: I personally love your style. When I read your blog posts, I regularly crack up laughing. You are indeed entertaining. But also quite smart and you offer food for thought.
@Gary: Aw shucks! Well thank you so much. I think the goofy picture is small, because I’m actually leaning back, laughing out loud. Interesting interpretation though!
