Checklist for Creating a BIO That Stands Out
This form will help you develop a stylized bio that reflects your work ethic, your past successes and your desires for working with clients in the future.
When writing your BIO for the first time remember do not feel that these responses must be worded perfectly. Often, stream-of-consciousness answers give a true picture into your personality. Take at least 15 minutes to complete this form because your bio depends on the quality of this information.
Main Questions to Answer in Any BIO:
1. How long have you been in your field and what areas of specialization do you possess?
2. What are the unique difficulties, exciting changes your clients face within their specific industries? Include those you think are significant.
3. What do you enjoy most about the work you do for your clients? What gives you a sense of fulfillment?
4. Have you been recognized for any special accomplishments or honors? Please list these and the organizations responsible.
5. Describe one (or more) of your most successful outcomes – what were you able to do for the client? Include percentages (increasing profits 12 percent for example), timelines (within one year), ranges (took the company from $5M to $10M), etc.
