Christian Job Search: Put Faith IN Your Resume, Not ON It ogram, where I would be making my rounds of the different company branches and meeting with the participants of the upcoming project. Knowing that the day was going to be a particularly busy one, I was focusing on what I could do to best serve my clients and answer their questions. When I got to the application part of my dailyFaith should show up in your resume, not on it. There's a huge difference.Most Christians I've worked with have asked me to help them write or revise their resumes. Some have asked me if their faith should be on their resume somewhere.One could make the case that ministry-related jobs are "Christian jobs" and that a search targeting them is a "Christian job search" and, therefore, your resume ought to mention your faith. I agree, in that context. If you're not seeking a ministry-related job, though, you faith shouldn't be listed, hinted at, or referred to.In those cases, your faith has no place on your resume. But it should Motivate Your Market Force "If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own." -Henry Ford.IntroWant me to tell you something on how you can motivate your market force in 2005.

The more I try to make it a practice every day to write at least one page in my journal, just to see where my head is and to bring to light some of the hidden issues that are lurking just below the surface. When I write, I usually go into “automatic writing” mode which often frees me up to not worry about the words that I am putting down, but to just let the pencil do the writing. After I spend a bit of time writing my thoughts, I will usually write a “skills application” paragraph where I write out my daily goals using the information that I just put down in the observation part, which encourages me to focus on the practice and application of specific skills and attitudes during the day. Planning my day like this has really kept me grounded in reality; it has also allowed me to focus on short term development of some key skills. I find that if I clearly write out how I will apply the skills and attitudes that I feel are important to me each day, the achievement of them becomes as natural as breathing.

When I got to the application part of my daily What's The Frequency?
The more things change, some say, the more things stay the same. When it comes to marketing, I tend to agree. Consider the following list of how advertising frequency equates to advertising effectiveness. Thomas Smith wrote this in 1885:* The first time a man looks at an advertisement, he does not see it.* The second time, he does not notice it.* The third time, he is conscious of its existence.* The fourth time, he faintly remembers having seen it before.* The fifth time, he reads it.* The sixth time, he turns up his nose at it.* The seventh time, he reads it through and says, "Oh brother!" me of the hidden issues that are lurking just below the surface.

You're about to blast an email out to several thousand potential customers. First you run a search of people and companies you want to target. You soon realize something’s wrong when your list is far smaller than anticipated. A quick check reveals many profiles have not been filled in or are missing email addresses. Further inspection shows numerous records are incorrect; others are riddled with typos. And that’s just for starters. With a sinking feeling, you realize this email blast isn’t going to happen anytime soon.Time for some damage control or preventative m Last Tuesday, as I was writing in my journal, I was preparing to interview people for an upcoming sales program, where I would be making my rounds of the different company branches and meeting with the participants of the upcoming project.

Knowing that the day was going to be a particularly busy one, I was focusing on what I could do to best serve my clients and answer their questions. When I got to the application part of my daily writing, I was shocked to see that I had written “Instead of trying to be interesting, try to be interested!” Well, this took me off guard. I hadn’t even been thinking this, but still there it was in grey HP graphite, scratched out through the tip of my pencil.Chapter 2 of 14 Making sure the Celebrity will be the right fit for your audience.One of the biggest mistakes made when contemplating the use of a celebrity endorser is choosing a celebrity that does not complement your business or product well. For example, sticking a retired baseball player into a kids video about baseball could be a sure failure. Kids don’t recognize players from the past. If, however, the target market audience of the video was the kids father (who would be considered a baby boomer) then using a retired player might make a lot of sense. Using a retired player offers a very distinct advantage when it comes to “Whoa!” I thought, “Where did this come from? Did I do that? Did I try to get people interested in me and my business by talking about me and mine instead of being genuinely interested in them and talking about them and theirs? Hmmm… why yes, on occasion, I guess I do.” I could think of many occasions recently where the conversation seemed to be all about me, instead of about them… where it should have been in the first place if I was showing genuine interest. As I was “self talking” it appeared to me that what I had been doing was trying to get people interested in my “outside” personality by talking about what I had, instead of my “inside” caring personality that just wanted to know about them and what was important to them. During the day, with this revelation constantly in my minds eye, I truly listened to what was being said by my clients, without trying to compare it to what I had or did. I felt exhilarated! This was so exciting to me that I was making a game out of it. Before each person came in the room and to keep myse
