2: How to write your bio with the 5 Sentence Formula
Do you love your bio? As business owners, a bio is something we all need, and it’s one of the first things we write for our business. We use it for our website, social media, speaking engagements, podcast interviews, and more, so naturally, it’s something many of us write and rewrite over and over.
Even though it’s one of the first things you’ll write as a professional, it’s often the hardest. So, in today’s episode of ill communication, I am sharing a simple formula for writing a bio you love.
Your bio is a piece of writing that should share who you are, why you are special and amazing, and pique the interest of your reader so that they’ll want to get to know you a little more and take the next step with you.
The tricky part is that you’re supposed to try to do all of that in just a few sentences, so how do you write a bio you can be proud of that fits everything you want to say?
In today’s episode, you’ll learn my simple 5 sentence formula that will strike the right balance of authority and personality and help your reader take the next step with you.
