Again, pleading the fifth amendment: Let's just say I was also researching LinkedIn profiles of various AEs this morning.
Here's what I feel: If an AE has put up their company's description in THEIR "About" section, and went on to elaborate what the company does in the "Experience" section: I am subconsciously categorising this AE as lazy and disqualifying in my head of their abilities.
There are so many AEs / SDRs out there who simply have put up the About page of their company, as their About section. I have screenshots and there are more than 12, in a research done on 25 AEs. So. That does not give me or anyone any insight into who you are as a person, and an AE and then an employee. It just shows me that you are married to the company and are investing almost nothing into your own branding.
In the experience section, I'd love to know how much you have closed, what have you done so far in the company etc. But if that section too is full of what your company is all about: BOOM, No!
And then worse: Their posts are all reposts of company page.
Boy, bye!
