## How to set it up

It scales cleanly to the LinkedIn cover slot (1584×396):

```mermaid
flowchart TD
    A[Download SVG or PNG] --> B[Open in Canva, Figma, or PowerPoint]
    B --> C[Recolor to brand / add your name]
    C --> D[Export at 1584x396]
    D --> E[LinkedIn profile: edit background photo]
    E --> F[Upload, crop, and save]
```

Prefer to skip editing? Download the PNG and drop it straight onto your profile — the recolor step is optional.

## Where the "Stay in the deal." banner fits

This banner is built for the moments when a deal stalls and the temptation is to disengage. Here is the loop it is meant to reinforce:

```mermaid
flowchart LR
    A[Deal stalls] --> B[Stay engaged]
    B --> C[Surface the real blocker]
    C --> D[Re-confirm value]
    D --> E[Agree next step]
    E --> A
    E --> F[Advance the deal]
```

The bar-chart skyline is a deliberate cue: progress in deal-making compounds when you keep showing up through the quiet stretches rather than abandoning the opportunity at the first sign of friction.

## Why "Stay in the deal." works as a profile banner

Unlike generic "grit" or "hustle" quotes, this line speaks the language of revenue roles. "The deal" frames work as a commitment to see a complex negotiation through, which is exactly the reputation sellers, founders, and BD leaders want their profile to project. A few reasons the banner earns its place above the fold:

- **It signals follow-through.** The first visual a profile visitor sees sets the tone for how they read your headline and experience. A banner that says "Stay in the deal." primes viewers to expect persistence and closing discipline — and nudges you to highlight deal-related wins in your experience section.
- **The dark, high-contrast design reads as serious.** A charcoal backdrop with light text is a common choice for finance, sales, and executive profiles because it feels professional and keeps the text legible. Light-colored clothing in your profile photo will stand out cleanly against it.
- **It is memorable.** When someone meets you and later looks you up, a distinctive banner is an easy recall trigger — "the person with the 'Stay in the deal.' background" — which helps in crowded fields where titles and experience look alike.
- **It applies Cialdini's consistency principle.** In *Influence*, Robert Cialdini describes how people work to keep their actions aligned with a commitment they have stated publicly. A banner that publicly frames you as a deal-closer is a small, useful commitment device — both for how others see you and for how you show up.

## Practical ways to use it

- **Time it to active deals.** Run this banner during a major negotiation, fu
