This strategic methodology is great for any profile base, bio, or summary as I said depending on the platform you use you have more room to express yourself, so carefully craft what you want to convey but ensure the WHY, WHAT, HOW is a feature and your content is useful, informative and provide value.
If you have more room it's very good to add your accomplishment, your value, and passions. your expertise, what you do better than someone else, interesting statistic, try to differentiate yourself from the rest, validation such as award or thing you achieve, education, training even hobbies and previous experiences are good. (LinkedIn offers the possibility to put all this in a 2000 characters summary and categorise your profile info). but Twitter, Google Plus, and Facebook a lot smaller.
Before Posting anything
Analyse your content it is very important asked yourself these questions
Is there anything missing?
Is my content useful and informative?
Do I waffle too much or there is too much information or too little information?
Is everything relevant to what I do?
Is my content authentic and inspirational?
Put yourself in your reader shoes - which means read it as if someone wrote this for you do you like it are you attracted to it?
Ask a friend to go over it or family member get their input?
Correct mistakes, including punctuation, grammar, and spelling (get Grammarly for free) it's a great tool which correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistake bear in mind that it correct in American English so there is a few difference with English UK
Once you are happy with everything
Focus on the first two sentences. The latest major update to LinkedIn shows only the two first sentences of your profile summary which means these two lines are important and you want people to click the see more. That if your profile construction is for LinkedIn.
Once you are happy with everything then you’ll be ready to save your profile if you type it straight from the platform, if you write it on a piece of paper or office word then cut and paste it to your profile creation or update and let the world know who you are!
