Yes, in one of the company brochures, I have a picture of me taken just after I crossed the line at a bicycle race. Makes me look like a winner. Which is often what the customer wants. Subliminal message etc. etc..Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

Not only do I have my pic, I also enclose a screen shot of my facebook page. That way not only can they see how good looking I am but also how popular and interesting too.
