Please hear me out before you start tossing those rotten tomatoes.

I know everyone is proud of all the buttons and badges that they’ve earned along their Squid journey but placing them ALL in your bio is not really a good idea and here’s why:

The general public doesn’t understand what all those bells and whistles are about and could very easily get distracted by them.

Instead of reading your great text, they might sit there wondering what the heck a Giant Squid Organizer, a Purple Star, or a Rocketmom is.

I understand that you worked hard to achieve all those honors and yes, you deserve to show them all off.  I just think there’s a better way to do that.

Instead of confusing your potential reader with all of your trophies lined up in the side bar of your lenses, why not place your buttons and badges in a text box towards the end of your lens, including an explanation of what your badge means and why you got it.

You certainly don’t want your bio to be the only thing that catches your reader’s eye.

Tomato tossing may now begin!
