# LinkedIn Carousel Size and Template Kit

Use this as a production checklist rather than a promise about permanent platform limits. Confirm the current upload requirements in LinkedIn's own help documentation before a campaign goes live.

## A reliable slide system

1. Cover: one promise, one audience, one reason to continue.
2. Context: explain the problem or source in one sentence.
3. Proof: show the quote, statistic, or finding with attribution.
4. Meaning: translate the proof into a practical implication.
5. Action: give the reader a next step.
6. Caveat: add the limitation when removing it would mislead.
7. CTA: link to the full source or the next useful resource.

## Five reusable templates

### The evidence brief

Cover → research question → method → result → limitation → implication → source CTA.

### The customer proof story

Starting problem → intervention → customer quote → measurable result → lesson → next step.

### The practical checklist

Promise → checklist items → common mistake → review step → downloadable resource.

### The decision guide

Decision → option A → option B → tradeoff → recommendation → who should choose each.

### The article teardown

Article claim → context → example → what to try → what not to overclaim → source link.

## Pre-export QA

- One main idea per slide.
- Read the slide at phone size before exporting.
- Keep source, author, publication, and date close to the claim they support.
- Use a consistent type hierarchy and brand frame.
- Remove any slide that repeats the previous one without advancing the argument.
- Export a final PDF or numbered PNG sequence and open every file once.
