SOP: LinkedIn Banner Strategy
This SOP defines the visual identity and role-based structure for LinkedIn banners used by team members at Chenla Agathos Solutions. It ensures brand coherence while allowing appropriate variation based on leadership level, client exposure, and internal role.
🎯 Purpose
To:
- Maintain visual consistency across public profiles
- Reinforce structured identity within the organization
- Support staff autonomy while avoiding branding confusion
🧭 Two-Tier Banner System
Banners are divided into two role-aligned tiers:
🔴 Tier 1 — Strategic Leadership
Who uses this:
- CEO
- Project Director
- Future executive or public-facing strategic roles
Design elements:
- Chenla Red background with blueprint overlays or positioning message
- Messaging-oriented text (e.g. “Helping developers, NGOs, and firms build with confidence”)
- Right-aligned Chenla logo
- No profile photo embedded
- Centered or balanced headline layout
Purpose:
- Signal market positioning and brand vision
- Establish narrative authority and leadership identity
- Use in posts, recruitment, and company-facing visibility
⚪ Tier 2 — Core Team Members
Who uses this:
- Quantity Surveyors, Project Managers, Engineers, Accountants, Admin
Design elements:
- Solid Chenla Red background
- Left- or center-aligned identity text:
- Name
- Title

- No personal photo inside banner
Purpose:

- Strengthen client trust through professional, aligned visuals
✅ General Guidelines
- Do not duplicate profile photos inside the banner (LinkedIn already includes it)
- Use official Chenla Red (`#9A1E1E`) as base
- Keep all content within the mobile-safe zone: ~1200×240px centered
- Avoid solo branding, personal hotlines, or external consulting signals
- Banners must not imply independent services or parallel brands
