10 tips for writing professional bio
2
  • A professional bio is an essential piece of
    writing which indicates who you are, what you do,
    in what professional areas youre the best, and
    what your main achievements. It is the first look
    at you as a specialist and a person.

3
  • Bios ingredients
  • Add to your bio such elements as experience,
    education, awards and main accomplishments,
    photo, contact information, etc. But first, begin
    with a short catchphrase which defines you as a
    professional. Then, include everything you think
    is relevant.

4
  • Dont make it too formal
  • An easy-to-read and conversational bio is more
    winning than a traditional list of persons
    accomplishments and experience which is full of
    professional jargon and terms not everyone can
    understand. Make it clear and sweet.

5
  • Define your goal
  • Think about your audience and how you can grab
    their attention. Start with the introduction of
    who you are. Then, move to pleasantries. Use
    professional bio writing services if you have any
    troubles with writing.

6
  • State yourself as a professional
  • From the very beginning indicate your occupation
    and professional achievements. For example, say
    that you are an SEO-specialist who has doubled
    web traffic for a major client which ended by
    150 rise in online sales. This information will
    be like music to the ears of any recruiters.

7
  • Keep it engaging
  • If you just list your awards, medals, trophies,
    and achievements it will be quite boring,
    especially when youre using industry-specific
    terms.

8
  • Professional biography writers make bios
    engaging, interesting and even fun. So, always
    think about your readers and speak their language.

9
  • Look at samples
  • Do a research and find well-written and appealing
    professional bios examples. It is a great way to
    get an inspiration. However, dont copy
    information from these templates but look what
    techniques these authors used to make bios
    interesting.

10
  • Dont forget to update your bio
  • It needs to be fresh and includes the latest
    information about your professional success. So,
    update it from time to time and be honest with
    your readers.

11
  • Provide links to your works
  • Let your audience find out what youre capable
    of show real examples of what youve achieved.
    But dont be monotonous play with words, engage
    the audience and be original.

12
  • Write in the third person
  • Writing in the first person about your
    accomplishments will sound like youre simply
    showing off. Not everyone likes to read something
    like that. So, third-person perspective is the
    most appropriate here.

13
  • Demonstrate your personality
  • Keep your bio positive and make your readers
    smile. For this, add a bit of humor, witty
    twists, unexpected info or just something your
    audience might be interested in. Think about
    biography writers for hire If you cant come up
    with a bio on your own.

14
  • Be real
  • Be honest about who you are. It doesnt mean you
    have to keep your emotions and be as succinct as
    possible. Just show the audience youre a normal
    person and a good specialist who are ready to
    help them out (especially if your audience is
    potential customers).

15
  • Include in your bio both professional and
    personal details. Your readers should feel like
    they know who you are and actually like you. Only
    in this case, they can trust you with their
    business.

16
  • Stick to the word limit
  • Respect the limit and dont be too wordy and
    lengthy. Quite often, catchy and witty
    two-paragraphs-long written piece makes a greater
    impression than 3-pages vague bio. A short text
    is more likely to get read and remembered as well.

17
  • When you are writing professional bio, make every
    word count. Besides, dont rush but keep calm and
    work on the first draft. Write something which
    makes you proud and helps others to find out more
    about you.

18
  • Contact details are essential
  • Provide your contact information (email, LinkedIn
    profile, etc.) at the end of your bio. People
    need it to get in touch with you.

19
  • Proofread
  • Before publishing your written piece, make sure
    it is free of errors, well-organized and easy to
    understand. Ask your friend, to proofread your
    bio and give you feedbacks.
