October is Referral Month - Earn Commission

During the month of October (2009) The Resourcer is helping you put the money back in your pocket. Every purchased resume order that you refer you'll receive $10.00 (cash). Start referring up your friends and get read to earn your commission.

The NEW Cover Letter - Where the Power Is.

Yes, it is more than likely that you have heard people comment lately that the economy is showing some positive signs of turn around. The hardest part of these statements comes in the shape or form of understanding where that turn around is happening. I don't believe we are seeing it across the board but there are some positive changes happening.

Truthfully speaking there are still a wealth of jobs to be had. Yet, again companies are much more selective and willing to wait on filling the position until just the right person comes along. That is precisely why a new important factor has just starting popping up on our job posting radar.

The Cover Letter!

Before the cover letter was more of a formality. If you included one great. If not, it was not really a make or break issue. However, we are finding out that today your cover letter is very key. It can either provide immediate reading of your resume or make your emailed submission hit the trash bin without even so much as a glance at the resume attached.

It is clear that the "new" cover letters are much more like mini one page proposals then merely just a cover letter. They are taking the shape of the "bait" that will get you in the door.

What do you need to know:
Don't play around with fancy wording, avoid giving too much information, but write it clearly and most importantly - PROOF READ!

Make the Sale

I just love reading all the techniques and tools that marketing requires to get your reader by the nose and pull them in. Advertise here, make the sale. Show this profit margin, make the sale. Hire this gru, make the sale. Technically overstate but only slightly, make the sale. Why can't I just point out the truth that a powerful resume will get you an interview and have that be enough? Why? Because chances are you have never heard of The Resourcer, have no idea that we write and create powerful professional resumes from start to finish, help you search career markets, locate jobs, apply, and even prep you for the interview. Chances are you have never heard about us because, I don't buy into the marketing scheme of: Make the sale.

The rather ironic point in all of this leans directly towards the fact that I am generating a marketing scheme and plan for you. Taking your skills and abilities, putting them on paper, establishing a market research package that will help you succeed in certain job areas is exactly what The Resourcer does so that you can, Make the Sale. Ironic?
