Lessons Learned Carousel

A story and the lessons it taught, one per slide in the writer's voice, as PNGs and a LinkedIn PDF, in four looks.

$9.99once, yours to keep

Makes lessons learned carousels: a personal or team story told as what happened and the lessons it taught, one lesson per slide, in the writer's own voice. Saves every slide as a PNG (1080x1350 or 1080x1080) for Instagram, Threads and LinkedIn, and joins them into one PDF for a LinkedIn document post. Comes with 4 looks (typewriter, notebook, letterpress, botanical), a slide counter, a swipe cue and their handle on every slide. Good for founder posts, project retrospectives, career stories and "what I learned" posts. Every word is set in real type and checked to fit; no picture model, no key and no cost. Use when someone wants a "what I learned" carousel, lessons from a launch, a failure or a year in business as slides, or a personal story post for LinkedIn.
