## What is a problem social carousel?

A problem social carousel tells a problem in five portrait slides for LinkedIn or Instagram: who it hurts, the evidence and what good looks like, ending on a question for your network.

Also called: LinkedIn carousel.

## Why it matters

A well-stated problem travels further than a solution. It draws in the people who live with it and the people who could help, before there is anything to sell, and it tests whether the problem matters to anyone before you build.

## What's inside

- A cover that stops the scroll
- Taken apart
- Why it matters
- What good looks like
- A question for your network

## Where it comes from

Distilled from the framing and its strongest evidence.

## Questions

**Why post a problem rather than an idea?** A problem asks for help; an idea asks for approval. Problems draw the people who know the subject, and they test whether it matters to anyone before you build.

**How many slides, and what size?** Five, in portrait 4:5: the shape LinkedIn and Instagram show largest in the feed.

**What makes the first slide work?** One plain sentence about who is hurt and how, set to be read in a second.

## Clarity, by design

Every document is architected and designed for one purpose: clarity. The designs are original, built on the method of Innovation Mode 2.0 (Springer Nature, 2026), where some of them are published. Its author, George Krasadakis, has spent 25 years building products, in a career that spans Microsoft, Accenture, GSK and ResMed. Ainna distils your work into each one: every claim in its place, every figure with its source or its assumption. Decks are set in Roboto, documents in Georgia.

## About the sample

It comes from one public problem, number 0032 on Problem Radar (https://ainna.ai/problems/workforce-unprepared-for-the-disruption-ai-is-bringing), which Ainna framed and developed into one idea, VentureForce. It is a concept, not a company; its market figures are AI estimates.
