1 Know your audience

Before you start writing your bio, think about who will read it and what they are looking for. Are you applying for a specific job, pitching a project, or networking with peers? What are the goals, expectations, and challenges of your audience? How can you address their needs and interests in your bio? Tailor your tone, language, and content to suit your audience and purpose.

Depends on where you are writing the bio. If it is for Linkedin, use an active voice and write a short summary of your work and life experiences, and your passions. For your resume, write a two paragraph professional summary highlighting your skills and achievements to a potential employer.

Your BIO should have a clear offer. It should tell the readers what you are here for. Make it quirky, funny, informative, statistical, or however you and your audience likes it.

2 Be authentic and human

Your bio is not a resume or a sales pitch. It's a story that reveals who you are as a person and a professional. Don't be afraid to show your personality, passion, and values in your bio. Use a conversational and friendly tone that reflects your voice and style. Share some details that make you unique and relatable, such as your hobbies, interests, or quirks. Avoid using jargon, cliches, or generic statements that sound boring or fake.

3 Highlight your value and achievements

Your bio should demonstrate your value and achievements in your field or industry. What are the skills, experiences, or projects that set you apart from others? What are the results or outcomes that you have delivered or contributed to? How do you solve problems, create value, or make a difference? Use specific and quantifiable examples to showcase your impact and credibility. Don't be shy to mention any awards, recognitions, or testimonials that you have received.

If you have been on the TEDx Stage, would you not mention it in your bio? It's a stage where people aspire to be. And if you have achieved it, add it! It adds authority. However, it should be in alignmnet with your core offer.

4 Keep it concise and clear

Your bio should be short and sweet, not long and tedious. Aim for a length of about 150 to 300 words, depending on the context and platform. Use clear and simple sentences that are easy to read and understand. Avoid unnecessary or redundant information that distracts from your main message. Use bullet points, headings, or formatting to break up your text and highlight key points. Proofread and edit your bio to eliminate any errors or typos.

Your LinkedIn main BIO should be 72 characters long-- as it shows up on comments and DMs. These 72 characters should be so captivating that they the reader is intrigues to visit your profile.

5 Include a call to action

Your bio should not end with a full stop, but with a call to action. What do you want your audience to do after reading your bio? Do you want them to visit your website, follow you on social media, contact you for more information, or hire you for a job? Include a clear and compelling invitation that encourages your audience to take the next step. Provide a link, an email address, a phone number, or a button that makes it easy for them to reach out to you.

Avoid excess emojis. Avoid being tongue-in-cheek. Avoid cluttering it with all your designations. It is a space to give them a snippet of what you do and who you are.
