### Activate the Cover Image Slideshow

1\. Open your **LinkedIn profile**.

2\. Click the **“Change Photo”** button in the top right corner.

3\. Select the option **“Create Slideshow”**.

Now you can upload multiple images for your slideshow. The cover image will automatically switch between the uploaded images every few seconds.

### Add Images to the Slideshow

1\. Open the **slideshow function**.

2\. Navigate to the folder where you have saved your images.

3\. Select the desired images.

4\. Add more images or duplicate existing ones as needed.

Once you have uploaded the images, click **“Save”** to activate the slideshow.

### Strategic Use of the Slideshow

The slideshow is a great way to highlight your offer and expertise. Here are a few ideas:

• **Pitch your offer:**

Show your main offer on one slide and a compelling benefit or customer testimonial on another.

• **Build trust:**

Use customer reviews, certifications, or ratings to strengthen your credibility.

• **Multilingual profiles:**

If you work in multiple languages, you can, for example, upload a German and an English version of your cover image.

### Questions About the Slideshow?

If you need help setting it up, feel free to contact support.
