Is your bio or LinkedIn Summary Section memorable? Does it compel people to become more interested in you?
There are four parts to a powerful bio or a Summary Section in LinkedIn. Following is a simple formula that asks questions designed to produce the four paragraphs of your bio. As you answer the questions, you will be improving and giving clarity to the most important message about you.
First Paragraph:Answer the question, “Why am I in this business?” Think about how you got into this business, why do you what you do, and what the meaning is for you. This is the most memorable part of a bio and most do not include it. Don’t just give them a description that is like a resume, give them a memorable narrative about you.

Believe it or not, people actually want to learn about you and your company, and they’d rather not fall asleep while doing it.
A well-written bio will combine the overall company culture and voice with that of the profiled team member. While website bios are generally concise—anywhere from Twitter-short to a few paragraphs—choosing the particulars to highlight can be tricky. Gathering the right information up front, in a minute interview, is key.
Here are my favorite questions to ask when writing a bio. Note: these don’t include the usual slew, like general career experience and education.
1. Who is someone you admire, and why?
2. Tell me three pet peeves.
3. What’s a typical day like for you?
4. Do yo
