Add You - Your Internet Presence and Networking Strategy - Creating a Marketing Campaign to Land Your Next Job
When you sometimes need a specific product or item, it is very much beneficial and better for you to look for it in eBay, the famous online trading site. You are bound to find some great deals on eBay that suit your budget and needs, without having to do much shopping and research.The best way to get the best deals on eBay is to use the search feature of eBay. You use this feature by using words or short phrases posing descriptions of the product you are looking for. When looking for deals on eBay, the more words you use for search leads to fewer results. This proves to be both good and bad to you.Sometimes, being too specific in your description may lead to missing of some great deals on eBay. On the contrary, descriptions with fewer words produce numerou
You need to be exposed on a site that is frequently indexed by Google, and has high page view numbers. Ecademy is indispensable in this regard. It has an Alexa ranking close to 1500 (i.e., 1500th most trafficed site on the Internet). That is similar to the amount of traffic on a site like United Airlines. Google "loves" the site because the content is constantly changing.
On a site, such as Ecademy, you can "blog" your brains out and write articles on the topics of your choosing - all of which will be indexed by Google the same day you write it typically. In less than a month, and in some cases in a single day, you will show first page hits on Google when someone searches on your name (e.g
• Iraqi Head Seeks Arms • Juvenile Court To Try Shooting Defendant • Include Your Children When Baking Cakes • Clock Thief Faces Time In Jail • Police Begin Campaign to Run Down Jaywalkers • Crack Found on Governor’s Daughter • Something Went Wrong in Jet Crash, Expert Says • Stolen Painting Found by Tree • Two Sisters Reunited After 18 Years in Checkout Counter • Killer Sentenced to Die for Second Time in 10 Years • Is There a Ring of Debris around Uranus? • Panda Mating Fails; Veterinarian Takes Over • Miners Refuse to Work after Death • Only Rain Will Cure Drought • Children Make Nutritious Snacks Make Nutritious • War Dims Hope for Peace • If Strike Isn’t Settled Quickly, It May
You're about to engage in the biggest networking and marketing campaign project of your life.
As such, you want access to every business card, contact and email address you've ever collected.
You want access to every tradeshow, symposia, conference, user group, relevant industry specific blog and website you can identify.
You want access to additional contact information via free and subscription based research services and databases.
You want to possess, ideally, ongoing memberships, and as a result - a working familiarity with professional business networking environments such as Ecademy, LinkedIn, et al.
Have you ever asked yourself, "Are there other networking sites that can compliment my networking process/needs?"
From the people that make up the membership demographics, to the platform capabilities from which the members network, to the nature of networking conducted on the site, to the philosophy of the executive team that founded the networking site - all networking sites certainly are not equal. Each networking site has a unique capability which can be leveraged in a networking process in support of a specific or ongoing networking need/objective.
Many people make the mistake of being "wedded" to a single networking site, and get frustrated with their ability to accomplish their immediate and/or ongoing networking objectives. This would be equivalent to attempting to build a house, and use the same type of saw in every application requiring "a saw".
There is a reason some wise person coined the phrase "Use the right tool for the right job."
Just like some people have their favorite search engine, some people have their favorite networking site. If you really want to increase your ability to network, invest time in learning how to leverage the power of more than just your favorite networking site.
Don't think of other networking sites as competing with each other; think of other networking sites as complementing each other.
Develop a plan of attack.
The old adage of "those who fail to plan; plan to fail" is absolutely true in a proactive job search campaign. You can't simply focus on approaching recruiters. Read: E-Mailing Resumes to Recruiters Won't Generate a Big Response.
Create a balanced plan.
Reaching out to recruiters and hiring authorities/executives directly by utilizing resume distribution services and a desktop email campaign software solution should be combined with direct networking by leveraging professional business networking environments (e.g., Ecademy, Linkedin, et al.). This creates an effective job search strategy that will increase your exposure to more opportunities.
Make sure your plan includes investing time in personally branding yourself on the Internet and building an Internet presence.
If someone types your name (e.g., "John Doe" ) into Google, are you anywhere to be found? Or quote industry leading personal branding consultant Cindy Kraft "Do you exist?" (see my related article: “Do you exist?”)
The easiest way to have Google find you is to write blogs. But it is actually a little more complicated than going out and creating a blog. You can go to a number of free blog sites and grab your own blog (e.g., Blogger, BlogSource, et al.), but that won't mean your name "John Doe" is going to return a hit on the first page of the search return in Google.

If you are serious about selling then you need to be serious about time allocation and production and therefore you need to cold call and get to as many decision makers and prospects as possible in order to develop leads and close more sales.Selling on the phone is not easy and you also know that many of the people you contact will be busy and they may be interested but perhaps not now. You need a quick pitch or invitation to open the door to have a visitation, but do not waste your time with a sales call or giving them a free lunch if they are not interested.How can you find out if they are interested in 20 seconds or less? Well that takes practice and after about 20-30 calls you will get the hang of it rather than having them hang-up on you! Even veteran

A little while ago, I had an idea.The idea was that knowledge management (I realize not everyone is familiar with knowledge management, so a definition is always useful) is an extremely useful approach to getting things done within an organization.However, knowledge management is often limited to large organizations with big budgets and dedicated staff who can set up complex tools and processes to make it work.So I thought: why can’t this approach work for small businesses, non-profits and other organizations with limited money and resources?This article is designed to be a guide to using the many free tools on the web to set up your own personalized knowledge management initiative — and best of all, how to do it at absolutely no cost to you

When you hear claims like……Best Lawnmower in the country…Absolute Lowest Prices In Existence…Leaves your hair cleaner than any other shampoo…do you believe them?Or is there a certain degree of doubt in your mind about their credibility? Or whether they are ‘hyped up’?Think about it. Everybody expects advertisers to exaggerate their claims. To present them in their best light.

A career in pharmaceutical science is always rewarding and pharmacy technicians are the leading professionals in the pharmaceuticals industry. Generally pharmacy technicians do a lot more than pharmacy aides, so the rewards, benefits, and career chances are brighter for pharmacy technicians.Pharmacy technicians should hold a national pharmacy training certificate. Pharmacists usually prefer to employ certified pharmacy technicians. The regular course and learning procedure during their certification, molds them to be dedicated in their job. Pharmacy technicians are given due respect by all the patients for their sincere advice and service. With the increase in population and hospitals, the need will increase and pharmacy technicians will be in large demand.

This is priceless from an exposure standpoint, and absolutely invaluable to a job seeker. No other networking site can compete with Ecademy with how fast you can personally brand yourself on the Internet. Google even indexes your Ecademy Profile, and there is virtually no limit to the amount of information you can build into your profile on a site like Ecademy, as compared to other sites like LinkedIn that only allow for a very limited profile.
That said, make sure to sign up and create a profile on LinkedIn as well. It's a great site too; it just doesn’t offer the same capability as other networking sites. There are over 67,000 Staffing and Recruiting professionals using LinkedIn as a database of candidates. I always tell people to specifically make sure their LinkedIn profile has as much "resume" information about their career as the character limited fields will allow. Why? Because then the 67,000 Staffing and Recruiting Professionals in LinkedIn will be able to hit your profile when they do key word searches in "Find People" when they are trying to identify candidates for their searches - let alone the remaining +6.5 million members who might want to network with you.
Just remember, it isn't that one networking site is "better" than another. As I said above, don't think of other networking sites as competing with each other; think of other networking sites as complementing each other.
When seeking your next career opportunity, don't kid yourself; you are conducting a direct marketing and networking campaign. If recruiters and hiring authorities/executives don't know who you are, can't find you, and don't know how to contact you, you will miss out on a lot of opportunities to advance your career.
Happy Networking,
