Headline format rules
- 220 chars maximum. LinkedIn cuts off at 220. Stay under 180 for readability.
- Name the buyer. "VPs of Marketing" beats "marketing leaders" beats "marketers".
- Quantify the outcome. "30-40% CAC reduction" beats "better marketing results".
- One offer per headline. Don't stack three things you do - pick the one that converts best.
- Avoid hype words. "World-class", "best-in-class", "revolutionary" - all signal weakness.
- Use pipes or em-dashes to separate elements: Fractional CMO | B2B SaaS | ex-CMO @ Hootsuite.
FAQ
How often should I change my headline? Stable through a quarter at minimum. Frequent changes confuse LinkedIn's algorithm and people who view your profile twice. Change when your niche or offer changes, when you have meaningful new proof, or when A/B comparing two versions across 200+ invites each shows clear acceptance-rate impact.
Should I include emoji? One or zero. Two or more reads cluttered. A single arrow or bullet can help visual scan, but don't overdo it.
What about my "Pronouns" and "Open to work" badges? Out of scope for this tool. Those are separate profile elements, not part of the headline string.
Headline locked in? Use SocialScalr to convert profile traffic into pipeline with throttled, human-like connection requests.
