20 LinkedIn carousel ideas for coaches
A LinkedIn carousel is a PDF document post that readers swipe through. It works best for one idea broken into short steps. Here are twenty ideas that fit coaching and consulting.
Each idea links to Verbatim's LinkedIn carousel maker, which turns an article, a captioned YouTube video or a transcript into an editable carousel PDF.

The 20 ideas
- The first question you ask every new client: One slide per follow-up question and why it matters.
- Myths about your niche: One myth per slide, with what actually happens instead.
- Your framework, one step per slide: Name each step and give the one action it asks for.
- Before and after a session: What a client thinks walking in versus walking out, described in general terms.
- Mistakes you see in first sessions: Each slide: the mistake, why it happens, the fix.
- A checklist clients can save: Turn a recurring piece of advice into a checklist slide by slide.
- Questions to ask before hiring a coach: Help buyers compare honestly; it builds trust.
- What you would tell yourself in year one: Lessons from your own practice, in your own words.
- A book that changed how you coach: One idea from the book per slide, with how you apply it.
- Your answer to the most common client question: Break one long answer into short steps.
- Signs a client is ready for coaching: One sign per slide, so readers can self-assess.
- A simple weekly routine: One day or habit per slide.
- Words to stop using: A phrase per slide with what to say instead.
- Your process from first call to last session: Show what working with you looks like.
- A recent talk or webinar, summarized: Paste the transcript and keep one point per slide.
- Your best blog post, as slides: Turn an article you already wrote into a swipeable version.
- A YouTube video, as slides: Use a captioned video as the source.
- Tools you recommend and why: One tool per slide with the job it does.
- A question to reflect on, per slide: Prompts readers can answer privately.
- What clients should do in the next 30 days: A short plan, one week per slide.
How to structure a coaching carousel
- Slide 1: the promise or question, in a few words.
- Middle slides: one point each, a short headline and one sentence.
- Last slide: a soft call to action, such as a question to comment on.
- Keep it to one idea. Split bigger topics into a series.
