Hello Playmakers! My coach challenged me to think about how I show up on zoom years ago and I want to do the same with you. After being in back-to-back meetings this week, I want to address something CRITICAL to your professional brand presence. Your Zoom setup is NOT just technical, it’s your FIRST IMPRESSION with potential partners, investors, and collaborators. Let’s elevate together! 🖼️ YOUR BACKGROUND MATTERS ✅ MAX POTENTIAL MEMBERS: Use your VIP background to show your commitment level on our Monday night calls. I will attach a couple below. ✅ ALL MEMBERS: I”Create and use YOUR BUSINESS LOGO as your background Why? Because every meeting is a marketing opportunity. Your logo creates instant brand recognition and positions you as a serious entrepreneur. 📝 YOUR ZOOM NAME SETUP: Click “Participants” → Hover over your name → Click “More” → Select “Rename” NEW COMMUNITY STANDARD Format: Your Name - @YourInstagram Example: Dr Dwight - @dsriddick2 💡 Why This Matters: 🔹 Builds YOUR Personal Brand - Every call becomes a networking opportunity 🔹 Creates Community Connections - We can find and support each other on Instagram 🔹 Shows Professionalism - Signals you’re serious about your business 🔹 Opens Doors - The right person seeing your branded presence could change everything Your business isn’t a hobby and your Zoom presence shouldn’t look like one either. Take 5 minutes RIGHT NOW to update your settings. Your brand deserves it. ————————————————————- 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 USE THIS TO MAKE YOUR BACKGROUND Here’s a chat GPT prompt I used to create my new Zoom background with my logo on it. (** community admin if I’m not supposed to post this just let me know and I can delete, I mean no harm just sharing advice **) First I UPLOADED MY LOGO and then choose one of the BACKGROUNDS FROM BELOW ( backgrounds are from a website called walldrops - you can buy from them too, and I have purchased some from them but then chatGPT came out and/or choose backgrounds from online or have charger make em from scratch ). Then I gave my chatGPT these 2 prompt exactly as written below.

Today I attended the “Funding Blueprint” conference on business grants and business funding. They had a pitch competition on the spot at the event for women entrepreneurs and they gave away $10K to the winner. No one knew this was happening. You completed an application on the spot, they narrowed it down then you come on stage to present. They aren’t speakers and the judges said they were picking based on the idea not how they presented… in their 2 minute pitch … and to be honest the presentations were a 2-3 level speaking out of 10 at best… the young lady who was maybe a 5 in her presentation above the level 2-3 presenters… and yes, she won. So although they said presentation didn’t matter, let me say it always matters. I also said to myself… I will not let our Playmakers be unprepared for a moment like this. Next week we will be working on your speaking, on your pitch, on you sharing about you and your business. Get ready! We will be phenomenal speakers! Come to Mondays live call ready to speak.
