Writing a bio people follow

  • Lead with what you do and who it is for. People decide whether to follow from a quick look at your profile.
  • Be specific. “Building scheduling software for dental clinics” says more than “Entrepreneur | Builder | Dreamer”.
  • Only claim what you can back up. Past roles, numbers and results in a bio should be ones you would happily link to. The brackets are where your facts go — a template cannot know them.
  • Give one next step: a link, a newsletter, or what your DMs are open for.
  • Stay under 160 characters, the X bio limit, and update the bio when the work changes.
