    Useless Resume Objectives
    What’s wrong with an objective on a resume? The problem with objectives on resumes is that a typical objective is self-centered and self-serving; therefore, it is useless. Instead of an objective, use a power statement.Let me illustrate what I mean by giving examples of both objectives and power statements. Here is a typical objective, one that HR personnel see on top of resumes all the time:“Customer Service Representative position allowing me to fully utilize my skills and attributes and providing professional advancement opportunities.”What did this objective tell me? The above objective communicated to me basically nothing but for the sake of this case study here are a few points:The person is looking for a Customer Service position. (No problem with that.)The individual’s priority seems to be his/her professional advancement within the organization. (Oops, that’s n

      Affiliate Program Marketing: Become an Online Marketing Success
      Advertising and marketing has become one of the largest and most profitable careers around. Successful advertising gurus can command huge wages by working in the creative industry. Few people would choose to argue with earning money by the bucketful doing something as simple and enjoyable as creating advertising campaigns.The invention of the Internet has blown apart the traditions and boundaries of many of the industries and business sectors, which have become established in the real world. One of these is that of advertising, the online market is vastly different to that of the standard tried and tested methods. In itself the advertising industry has been revolutionised and brought into the technological age. One of the products of this marketing revolution is the affiliate program.The affiliate-marketing program runs along the same fundamental principles as that of the standard media marketing. However it does hav
      How do you market your work?

      You write a book.

      You take a sample chapter or an article and submits this information to top web sites that may be interested in the your subject area.

      Offering content for web visitors greatly enhances the value of the already popular web sites. Almost all of the web site content managers will jump for the opportunity to give their web visitors more reasons to come back to their web sites.

      The sample chapters and articles are given in exchange for links back to your web site.

      If you can propose just four or five new article postings each day for just five days per week, you can achieve tremendous success in selling your e-books.

      This is a great technique used by authors that have to work a regular job for a living. The authors can create and deliver their proposals by e-mail. They don't have to make business contacts during working hours. By working just a few hours each night and on weekends, each author can drive thousands of readers to his own web site within just a few months.

      Once the article is posted to a web site it will stay in a particular location for a while and then will be "archived" for new subscribers to read later on.

      The article will include links back to the author's web site and will be referenced by major search engines.

      This gives you a major boost in popularity.

      A great benefit of this type of selling is the fact that no words are spoken. No sales skills are needed.

      If the e-book is prices at only $10 per book and each contact for the month sells one book per contact, you will sell over $1000 in volume the very first month of book selling!

      You will receive up to 100% of the sales totals based on the arrangements made with the web site owners.

      For this example let us assume that you earn $500 clear profit for the first month of selling e-books.

      How much did you have to spend in marketing the e-book?

      Zero!

      You did not have to make banners, bookmarks or other marketing materials.

      You did not have to make a single phone call.

      In the second month, if you execute the same marketing strategy, another 100 e-book sellers or book referring web sites will be added to your sales force.

      Again, if each e-book publisher only sells one book, you have $500 plus another $500 from the original web sites that are selling or referring your book from their archived web locations.

      If you keep up this pace and the book selling web sites are only sending one new book buyer each month, you will keep $39,000 the first year.

      If you add a second book, the total could be $78,000 or more.

      Also, remember you will receive around 100% of what is selling from your web site.

      We are not factoring in you working more than two or three hours per day. We are not factoring in the fact that you can set up an affiliate program like Amazon.com or Barnes & Noble and bring potentially thousands of potential book-sellers to link over to your web site and send you business.

      The example is based on each of your web site content contacts. Each of the contacts has your sample chapter or article sending you just one customer each month!

      You are adding hundreds of sales people each month that are working 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. There are no product or territory restrictions.

      You may wish to go back and send each contact two or three articles thus doubling or tripling your e-book sales.

      You still haven't spent any money!

      Watch how huge their eyes become when they listen to your e-book-marketing plan!

      How else can I market my e-book without spending any money?

      1. Affiliate programs are great. Rather than marketing your personal web site you get others to market for you. Each time an affiliate send someone to your site and they buy your e-book the affiliate earns a commission on the sale. You set the commission rate and you decide how often you pay the commissions.
      2. Contact discussion lists on the Internet and offer a free chapter of your e-book to the list manager. Copy and paste the sample chapter of your e-book and send this to the list manager. This is an effective technique I personally learned from Angela Adair-Hoy the author of How to Write, Publish and Sell e-books. (Buy it, Angela has great information) You can find the URLs of the discussion lists in Chapter Seven of this book.
      3. Conduct a search on Yahoo, the famous search directory. Look up the topic area of your e-book. Put yourself in your reader's shoes. What kind of information would they be looking for that your book is a perfect fit?
        1. For example, if you have written a Southwestern Style Cookbook, who would be interested? Would people that are vacationing to Arizona or New Mexico be interested in southwestern style cooking? These people may be interested in Cowboy Poetry, or travel information.
        2. Lets assume they enter search words like, cooking then Arizona or New Mexico. Your job is to search using the same words. Take the first 10 search returns and send an offer to the webmasters at each web site. Offer to send the webmasters free articles or free chapters that will be posted on the web sites. Top web sites usually offer free content to their visitors. In exchange for posting your free chapter, tell the webmasters you will provide content with the consideration that you receive a bi-line that tells webs visitors where they can purchase your e-books. Most webmasters will respond favorably to your offer.
      4. Look up e-zines that fit your e-book genre. An e-zine is a newsletter that all the great web sites offer to their visitors. E-zine editors are ALWAYS looking for articles.
      5. E-mail a proposal to the e-zine editor and offer to submit an article or free chapter of your e-book.

          Why Customer Service is Even More Important These Days?
          Everyone knows that customer service is important. However, most are clueless about how customer service can have a direct impact in their lives. If everyone knows customer service is important, why do most of us only pay lip service to it or adopt a lukewarm attitude towards providing an excellent customer service?This is a true story that happened today.I walked into a well-known electrical store with full intention to cart back 2 standing fans that very moment. The spacious outlet was quite empty with just a few lingering customers browsing around; I thought the purchase would be a breeze. I was deadly wrong.I saw a suitable model but there were no sales consultants there. I looked at the customer service counter and noticed more than 10 sales consultants sitting or standing there, resting or chatting. I waved at them, and gesturing towards my ideal fan, the eager consumer that I was at that time. A few sa

              Career Change Doesn't Have to be Scary
              Change. The very word can sometimes produce fear in many people. Why? Because lurking behind the word change is oftentimes the word unknown, and for most people it’s the fear of the unknown which makes them afraid of change.When it comes to making career changes, the fear of the unknown is what keeps people paralyzed, which also keeps them stuck in unfulfilling jobs, hating to go to work every day. At least it’s known, right? And, for most people, a crappy known beats an unknown any day, even if that unknown will eventually make someone happier.If you’re reading this and you recognize yourself, it’s time to take the bull by the horns and start making some changes. And, yes, that means facing the unknown.When deciding to change career directions, you can help minimize the unknown by doing some of the following:1.

                  Legal Ways to Make Easy Money
                  The process of making money may either be legal or illegal. Accepting money in return for selling a product or a service is legal as per the business rules. Therefore making money through legal ways always keeps you on the safest side. All governments support legal ways of making money.According to economists, there are mainly two reliable legal ways of making money in the United States. One is from the employer?s point of view, the maximum utilization of the physical and mental skills of workers where there is no consideration whatsoever of the well-being of the workers. Another method of making money legally is from the employee side where it is through salary. The workers will benefit when a company increases the compensations and at the same time the employer will make a turnover while boosting efficiency. Both these methods are beneficial to the company and partially to company workers.For individuals who
