Carousels, also known as Sliders, still get great engagement on LinkedIn. But if you're still creating Carousels in the square format, it's time to switch to the easier to read lateral design.
In this solo episode, I provide a step-by-step guide on designing carousels, emphasizing the importance of format, branding, and visual appeal. I also shares practical design tips to enhance readability and engagement, ultimately encouraging content creators to adopt the lateral format for better performance on LinkedIn.
