Get Exposed! 5 Tips to Writing a Press Release
As the publisher of a women’s business magazine in Alberta, Canada, I dredge through hundreds of press releases regularly with my eyes glazed over.Why are they glazed over? Well everyone pitches their product or service with boring news releases about how successful they are being a mother and running a business. If that is the case then I want to see the proof in the pudding. Give me concrete examples of your success!Are you still frustrated because you are only one of the few people who know about your fantastic business? Get exposed! You don’t need a publicist to get publicity, but you do need to communicate what you are doing with the press.Strip For Me - Please!Now when I say strip for me, realize this is a metaphor and not a request! (I am getting too old for that kind of stuff.)What I mean is cut ou

I Don't Want to be Different
To succeed in today’s crowded marketplace where most of the products and advertising look exactly the same, a small business owner must stand out, shouting above the din with a message so clear and compelling that prospects stop and take notice. It’s a matter of business survival. Unfortunately, most entrepreneurs quickly retreat to the supposed security of sameness, soon to be lost in a sea of anonymity and a tidal wave of frustration. In effect, albeit at a subconscious level, they are saying , “I don’t want to be different”.In back room offices and store fronts everywhere, salespeople are telling business owners they should do this or that kind of ad because it worked so great for their competitor. The owners nod and sign on. It’s already proven to be a winner, right? WRONG! Change the name, background color and a font style and

Outsourcing Pressure Washing and Facilities Maintenance Services
Labor issues in the United States are at a tipping point and it is difficult to get the labor you need to run your operations. With low unemployment of 4.9% it is obvious that finding good reliable help is not easy and once you have them you must pay them benefits and high rates to keep them.For those companies, which own property or facilities it therefore makes sense to hirer out pressure washing services to keep the properties clean. This is necessary because you need to maintain your image and keep up with the needs of the property. The cost of pressure washing equipment, reclamation devices and labor mean that often it is cheaper to outsource such services.For almost 3-decades our company had been in the cleaning business and worked with commercial businesses who outsourced their Flat Work (concrete cleaning) to us.

Conduct An Informational Interview
Informational interviews are designed to get as much information as you can about the industry and career you're seeking a job in from people who are already in that career.Many job seekers don’t conduct informational interviews because the purpose of this type of interview is NOT to ask for a job. But, when you talk with people in your area of interest, you establish rapport with them, get salary ranges for the position and hopefully, have your name passed along to the hiring manager when there is an opening in their company.Conducting an informational interview can be a very powerful job seeking tool for you. As you conduct these interviews, you’re:Establishing several important contacts learning more about the industry you want to work for and getting your name out there before anyone else in ca

Getting a Job is Hard Graft
Well, I haven't been in this situation for some years now, thankfully, but it's good to reflect on old writings, and this is still true today, as it was then ...Probably the hardest part of being unemployed is not knowing when things are going to change for the better. That illusory hope for the future which encourages: "Only a little longer to go and I can get a raise, promotion or big commission deal - is simply not there.So as the bills creep up, (because however you try to work it, you never have quite enough to go 'round), and as the things you can't have or just really don't need become an ever-increasing weight on that other list (things you are going to pay for, sort out and get, once you have a job), you find that little by little your life is becoming smaller and smaller, and that you're in quite a trap.BENEF

Get Hired Faster Using A Recruiter
There are many reasons to use a professional recruiter in your career search. Recruiters in a specific field have many connections that are not public knowledge, so they can give you access to jobs that aren’t available otherwise. They already have a relationship established with the hiring manager of many companies and this speeds the process along. And the best part is that their services are FREE to the candidates.Traditionally, the job seeker submits their r?sum? blindly to a human resources screener who has limited knowledge at best on what skills the position requires and what a great resume with experience looks like. Sometimes they are hourly employees and not devoted to effective and efficient screening. This leaves the candidate waiting for the phone to ring all day every day, when in reality their submission has been sit

Now you can do that one of two ways. You can call on more people or you can convert more initial conversations to appointments. The second is the only way to do it without killing yourself. And that is the focus of this workshop.

Quality is the best definition of a good business practice. When dealing with people, a good business card is your first weapon to attract them.

The people who work for you are more likely to stay and more likely to do a good job, if some basic, common-sense, human needs are met. There are things that workers want that you can deliver and that will make a difference in morale and performance. Here are some of them.
