Profile Audit
- 1 Your Banner & Headshot
- 2 Your Headline
- 3 Your About Section
You have 20+ years of expertise.
Your LinkedIn is still hiding it.
If your profile still lists "responsibilities" under each role, still uses your corporate headshot from 2019, and still describes you as a title at a company instead of a transformation you deliver — you are sending exactly the wrong signal.
You're building your Next Chapter. An independent business. A consultancy. A fractional role. An advisory practice. And right now, your LinkedIn profile is telling the world you're still an employee looking for your next rung on the corporate ladder.
"Your LinkedIn profile is not a résumé. It's a resource. The question is — a resource for what?"
— Leanne Calderwood, Personal Branding & LinkedIn TrainerThe good news? You don't need to overhaul everything. You need to fix three specific sections — strategically, intentionally, and without turning into a content creator you never wanted to be.
That's exactly what this checklist walks you through.
Three focused steps.
One profile that finally works for you.
Your Banner & Headshot — The First Impression You Don't Know You're Making
Your banner is a billboard. Your headshot is a handshake. Right now, both might be quietly telling potential clients you're still on the corporate clock. We'll show you exactly what to change — and what it signals when you do.
Your Headline — From Job Title to Transformation Statement
The most-read 220 characters on your entire profile. If yours still says "VP of [Department] at [Company Name]," you're invisible to every high-ticket client searching for exactly what you do. We'll show you how to flip it into an authority signal.
Your About Section — From Third-Person Bio to First-Person Relatable Guide
Most senior professionals either write a stiff corporate bio or leave this section blank. We'll walk you through the five-part structure that hooks your ideal client in the first two lines and ends with a CTA they actually want to click.
This is for you if you've thought
any of these lately.
- I'm too good at what I do to be this invisible in the market.
- I want to exit corporate, but I don't want to become a content creator — I want to be an advisor.
- I've been successful for 20 years without a personal brand. Can I really just wing it?
- I'm terrified of looking desperate to my former colleagues and bosses.
- My LinkedIn profile says "employee." I'm trying to say "expert."
I'm not here to make you famous. I'm here to make you sought-after.
I spent 20+ years in the meetings and events industry — and built my entire career on the back of my personal brand, not my corporate title. I created impact through thoughtful visibility. Not noise.
In 2020, I decided to teach other expert professionals how to do the same. Today, through my 12-month group coaching program, The Next Chapter Visibility Collective, I help senior professionals translate 20+ years of expertise into a high-ticket independent business — without the cringe, the hustle, or the performance.
This checklist is where most of my clients start. It's practical, it's specific, and yes — it works even if you consider yourself a raging introvert. (I am one too.)
