2. Diagnose the first screen
Open your profile in a private window. In three seconds, can a stranger tell who you help and why you are credible?

Align headline, About CTA, and Featured so the next step is obvious: message, book, download, or follow.
FAQ

Consistency beats volume. One strong post per week plus daily thoughtful comments often outperforms daily empty posts.
How long should a LinkedIn About section be?
Long enough to tell a clear story with proof and a CTA — usually a few short paragraphs. Skimmability beats maximum character count.
Is Creator Mode required for growth?
No. Use it if you want Follow-first distribution and featured hashtags. Skip it if your goal is dense 1st-degree networking.
