Help Your Friend - www.GetBacktoWorkFaster.com

I ran across Jill Konrath a few years ago through her outstanding website (www.sellingtobigcompanies.com), helpful sales emails, and book on Selling To Big Companies (Check all that out!)  She has made a difference in our approach to accounts.
 
Many of you have read the book Go Giver . . . Jill Konrath is a Giver.  All of us have a friend or acquaintance who has lost a job and is struggling.  Jill has a new tool just for them - this is a very creative approach to job search.  Do your friend a favor and forward them this email!  This is a description from her recent email . . .
 
Do you have friends who are struggling to find a job? If so, please read this email because you can help them.

In the past six months, too many good people I know have lost their jobs. They were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time, collateral damage in a struggling economy.

To make matters worse, the traditional way (e.g., resumes, info interviews) of finding a job is seriously broken - and most job seekers don't even know it.

That's why I decided to launch the Get Back to Work Faster Initiative - a book, website and free webinar series with a FRESH approach that helps job seekers get back to work much faster, in a position they're excited about that pays them well.

These proactive strategies enable professionals to create opportunities that don't exist today.
F'R'E'E COPY: Get Back to Work Faster

It all starts with my new book, Get Back to Work Faster: The Ultimate Job Seekers Guide for Professionals. It'll be out in paperback this fall. However, I know people can't wait! They need jobs now. So ... we're giving it away as a f-r-e-e downloadable PDF file.


In this 170+ page book, job seekers will discover how to:
  • Identify and pursue income-producing opportunities.
  • Land new positions that play to their strengths.
  • Become a "must hire" candidate, without any competitors.
  • ... and much more!
Best of all, these job creation strategies keep individuals feeling vital, productive and sharp during this challenging time - which is important too!

Help us make a difference. Because of our sincere desire to positively impact as many people as we can, we're giving away the book. We also have a series of complimentary webinars (see list below) scheduled, featuring top experts on these job creation strategies.

 So if you could please help us spread the word:
  • Forward a copy of this email to your job seeking friends, colleagues & family members.
  • If you know of any job hunters' support groups in your community or church, let them know about www.GetBackToWorkFaster.com. Invite them to post it on job boards.
  • Write about it on your blog. Tweet about it. Share it with your LinkedIn colleagues. Post info about the free book & webinars on your website. Digg it!
Join us today in helping job seekers "get back to work faster."

Thanks for your support!

What Makes This Book Unique? 
It features Jeff Ogden, a highly successful sales/marketing executive who recently adopted the job-creation approach to help himself get back to work faster, doing what he loves. You'll have a chance to see what he was doing "before" and "after" the extreme make-over. His insights ensured that Get Back to Work Faster reflects what job seekers need to know. 

Jeff also created a series of videos for the website to show people how to improve their online presence - something he had to learn himself. To learn more about him, visit JeffreyOgden.com. Also, check out his popular new ebook on How to Find New Customers that he created to demonstrate his expertise to potential employers.

All The Best,
