Blog Post: The Power of Creative Networking!
posted Monday, November 2, 2009 7:25 PM
As you know, this past weekend was Halloween. I am always telling my clients to know their strengths, accomplishments, how they could be a value to their next employer, and most of all, know how to network and stand out from their competition. Think of this as your "30 second commercial" or snap shot of your business card.
Here is a great example of what happened this past weekend. On Thursday before Halloween, I was the guest speaker at a meeting. I brought little bags of candy with my business card attached because I know how to do the little things that market my business. I had extra bags of candy and gave out the candy with my card attached on Halloween night. The next day, Sunday, one of the parent's called me to say that was creative of me to attach my business card to the bag of candy. But more importantly, he is an HR Director for a local company and asked if I knew of individuals that had sales experience. I was excited to tell him yes, and actually it was a fellow neighbor that was looking for a job. I called both of them, they spoke and tomorrow he has an interview!!! That is the power of Creative Networking! Just like Jessica posted about helping each other out on the Fan Page...think outside the box. Even though the job may not be for you...do you know someone else who may be a fit! Get creative...happy November! I'm here to help you too!
