Prepare a 10 second explanation to describe your business. If it takes more than 10 seconds to define what you do - you are not focused enough.
“My business promotes development and market branding for maximum business performance and success.” is a perfect conversation starter, and will bring interest to the business because it gives a basic definition of business without overrunning the conversation with a detailed description that begs discussion.
Design a logo that communicates your business identity to your customer. A single picture or group of words titling your business and replicating the purpose of your business is perfect.
“Coffee Clatter” titles a web log about conversations over coffee, the pictorial logo of a graphically designed coffee cup emitting steam implicates comfort, conversation, and energy. The web log portrays the logo. (You may visit the site at http://coffeeclatter.blogspot.com)

The Internet offers huge opportunities for a job hunter, but also presents several potential challenges. It also adds great complexities, and a lot more matters to consider…and be careful of.
Job hunting needs to be thought of as a highly personal, very directed marketing operation where you are the product. Your resume is an advertisement. Your extended network of contacts is your source for information and opportunities.
So where does the net fit in? At AA-Careers, we just posted a job on a popular job board and got over 650 applications in a calendar week. For one job. That’s increased job hunting competition.
Had the right person called us before we placed the ad, they could have secured the position prior to running in to all that competition. How? By finding an employee at our office who became aware of the job prior to posting. Everyone knew of the job for at least 14 days before it was posted. Who in your network might know of a job that’s coming available soon?
Be careful to check your application materials thoroughly before submitting them. When we did an analysis of the 650 resumes, we found a large number of errors. 63% of the applicants were easily removed with a fast-paced triage process. How? The same way any manager would. By passing over resumes where the objective didn’t match our position description. By rejecting candidates whose cover letters gave us grounds not to employ them, like "I know I’m overqualified but I really need a job". By eliminating candidates whose documents that didn’t open properly. And by eliminating prospects who didn’t trouble to spell check their cover letter and/or resume.
So the great news is that job boards give you a sense of who is hiring, and for what kinds of jobs. But once those positions are posted, the competition is intense. You can still try, if you have a well written resume, designed to appeal directly and clearly to the recruiter. And if you have practiced interviewing – so you don’t stumble at a critical point.
Another downside to be aware of is how easily you can be looked up on the web. As we Googled several job hunters, we ran into some MySpace comments that were in questionable taste. Nothing insane, but enough to rock our thinking about who to choose.
AA-Careers provides a broad set of services for Bay Area job seekers, providing our clients a personal career consultant, a managed job hunting campaign, modern tools like a personal website, video, highly targeted resume, and much more. Let us know if we can help you.
Be careful out there, and good hunting!
