Email Profile Picture when Cold Emailing?
Most of the professionals I’ve networked with only have their initials. Was wondering if having a photo would make networking efforts easier or if it’s weird.

A professional headshot can help build trust and make your outreach feel more personal, especially if the photo looks clean and business-appropriate. That said, initials are fine too; many people in finance prefer a minimal look. If your goal is to stand out in a respectful way, a professional photo can give you a slight edge in networking.
