Find out why your profile isn’t bringing in clients
Most product designers built their LinkedIn to get hired. When you go independent, the person reading it changes from a hiring manager to a founder, and they're looking for something different. This guide shows you exactly what they're checking for.
Fix the four sections that do 90% of the work
Banner, headline, About and Featured, section by section. Each one comes with what it has to do, what to put in it, and what to leave out.
Copy from real before-and-after examples
Headline rewrites for product designers, a banner layout, and a full About section broken into five parts, so you can see the shape before you write your own.
Start from where you are
Built for product designers freelancing on the side or going independent for the first time. No client results yet? The guide shows you how to use in-house work as proof.
Check it in five seconds
Finish with a 12-point checklist and one simple test: can a founder tell who you help, what you do for them, and that you've done it before?
