You want a killer LinkedIn summary? Make sure it is these four things:

1. Engaging and Original2. Written in the First Person3. Angled Toward the Specific People You Care About the Most4. Clear on What You Want the Reader to Do Next

“And again, it can be engaging (and, yes, even humorous). Consider something like: I’m always looking for a new problem to solve, so if you’ve got a doozy you need hand with, feel free to contact me directly at [email protected].” Jenny Foss in TheMuse
