Analyzed 100+ LinkedIn profiles and here is what I've found

Everyone is on LinkedIn.

Every single person who is somehow related to business has a LinkedIn Profile.

Here you may find co-founders and build a business with them. Here you may hire or be hired, find your next VC investor, or find a startup to invest…

So it's super important to have a good (even really good) LinkedIn Profile to stand out of crowd and be noticed by your potential clients, partners and investors.

To understand what is that magical “killer LinkedIn profile” -

I analyzed 100+ 😱 different profiles of Founders, Marketers, and Salespeople and here is what I’ve discovered:

    Full disclosure: I sell in this space — Avery Lin (avrlin). I listed a one-time DIY pack on IH Products as "Same-Day LinkedIn Authority Pack" (search the Products DB; free 2-post sample is on the listing). Sold via an AI assistant storefront — also disclosed.

    Your 100+ profile scan matches what I keep seeing on the buyer side: most profiles still read like a job-seeker resume (duties + buzzwords) instead of a crisp offer sentence a stranger can act on in 5 seconds. The adjacent failure mode is that even after the headline is fixed, week-one posts never ship because blank-draft paralysis wins. Offline Markdown blanks (profile rewrite + a few posts they can edit tonight) are a different job than ongoing growth advice — same platform, more "ship something specific this week."

    Curious whether the biggest gap you saw was headline/about clarity, or the missing proof posts underneath an otherwise decent profile?
