Have You Seen THIS Guy?
I’ve been asked by several people, “Why The Avatar / Caracature?”
First of all - I’ll give you Avatar - but Caracature? If you’ve seen me - it’s not THAT much of a stretch!
Any way - I AM a real guy and although People Magazine isn’t hounding me to be on the cover of their Sexiest Man Alive Issue - I don’t mind my looks.
Big bald guys with goatees are a dime a dozen - but that image - in my own humble opinion - is unique, clean, and stands out. So in a nutshell - I use the Avatar / Caracature for Brand Recognition.
Regardless of what I’m marketing - Wes Wyatt is ALWAYS my primary product. And that little guy is my version of The Golden Arches. When people see it - I want them to think of me.
If you have a few seconds - take a couple and let me know what YOU think. And then - let me know what YOU do to brand yourself.
Thank you in advance and have a DYNAMITE day!
Note - that avatar was created by my great friend and artist Mr. Abdul Rashid.

I like the avatar and I think it’s a good idea. (Um, obviously, since I’m using an avatar too.) I do a lot of stuff to be consistent on branding across my networking sites and webpages. I think it’s a great idea.

Big, bald guys and goatees…Not a bad combo if you ask me!
Did you ask? I dunno.
But it’s nice to meet you nonetheless..
I think it’s a cool avatar.

Very nice marketing Wes! I am actually in the process of getting together a ‘brand image’ for my blog. Very refreshing to run across this info at this moment and time.

I like the cocked eyebrow and the wide-eyed excitement with which you view the world.

Thanks for dropping by my profiles page.
I guess avatars are good for brand/blog recognition. And yours do stand out and I think in terms of marketing, that’s an objective achieved.
