Loved this workshop! Such great energy.
The Growing Importance of Your Short Description and Bio
Your short description has always been important. It’s what people see when they first land on your welcome page and often appears on your homepage.
But your short description and bio are more important than ever. Why?
We have pop-ups that appear for new visitors, and they only show your short description.
Substack inserts subscribe and recommend calls to actions in posts, and only your short description is shown.
In Notes, when people hover over your name, the preview is your short description and your bio.
In the workshop, I give you
the new requirements for your short description and bio,
effective examples, and
step-by-step directions on how to craft your description and bio.
The requirements, examples, directions, and slide deck are below.
You can also use the comments to get feedback on your short description and bio. Enjoy!
