Not Your Father's Career

Career Management for the 21st Century

By Marti Benjamin

When I was 16, I landed a part-time position in the credit department of the Sears department store in my hometown. Over a late-night snack at the kitchen table, my father told me how pleased he was that a big company that would provide job security for the rest of my life had hired me. He saw the next 50 years of my life unfolding in that same department store until I reached retirement age and could exit, pension in hand. For his generation, that was successful career management.

This evening, on a whim, I pushed open the rear French doors of my home and strolled outside to sit in my Zen Garden, relax, and reread, for the pure pleasure of it, Joe Vitale's revelatory masterpiece "The Attractor Factor."

MLM lead generation, network marketing training, home based business six-figure success strategies, none of it even crossed my mind at the time.

I did so because I got, out of the blue, a strong intuitive urge to, a hunch, and as Joe passionately recommends in the book, I've learned to listen and obey when those hit me.

Many people realize the benefits of having a professional clean their home on a regular basis, especially if they suffer from dust mite or other allergies, or have a sensitivity to cleaning products and want something entirely green and safe.

John Pletz, CEO of ServiceMaster Clean by Pletz, based in Crystal Lake, Illinois, says that a professional clean can help with a lot of the more arduous household tasks, and should be called regularly to perform duties that most homeowners are not equipped to deal with themselves. They include:
Cleaning carpets and floors: Carpets collect dirt no matter how much you vacuum, and if you dont extract the dirt regularly you can breathe it in the air. Unclean carpets can actually make your building dusty.
Cleaning difficult to access upholstery: Make sure a professional attends to furniture on a regular basis.
Cleaning tiles and grout: Can give new life to old tiles.
Washing walls: Makes a building look like new.

Getting and keeping customers has never been tougher. In a recession people count every penny. But recessions have been known before and we can learn from previous recessions and success stories what works.

As direct marketers have known for years incentives are one great way to acquire customers and build loyalty. They can be used in a variety of ways for consumers and businesses (though what works for each obviously differs) and to increase ROI for response, conversion, cross sales, recommend a friend, reactivation and loyalty / retention or all of them.

But in any incentive programme it's not just a question of giving money away – you have to find out what works for your customers (not what they say they'll do but what they actually do) and that means going back, as in all marketing, to psychology.

Financial experts around the world are saying the recession is over. That may or may not be true, but in the United States, businesses are starting to hire new employees again. However, the landscape of job hunting has altered considerably. Many college educated people in their 20s and 30s may find themselves in a strange, unique position. They will be going through classified ads for the first time in their lives to find jobs. Most young people don't even read the newspaper, and a staggering 4.6% (source: New York Times) of people under the age of 34 subscribe to any daily newspaper. Circling and highlighting potential jobs and calling up and down the list is one time-tested way to find jobs. There are also many job offerings online. The most common way to find work today is through online classified ads. These have the attributes listed in the paragraph above, but there are many, many more and they are more easily searchable, since they're online.

One of the most practical communication skills you should develop is also one of the least commonly used the power of negotiating. The difference between being a good negotiator and a poor negotiator could mean the difference in thousands of dollars throughout your life, pay raises and promotions, and the opportunity to have everything you've always wanted.

When envisioning negotiating, what comes top to mind is buying a new or used car. Perhaps you've even had experiences where you were spent a couple of hours playing tug of war with the salesperson, going back in forth on a price. You state a price, he gracefully bows out to speak to his sales manager, they come back with a price considerably higher than the price you offered, and so on.

A car is almost always your first major investment. It unceasingly remains dear and it becomes as important as buying a car, to protect it against accidents, fire, theft etc. Above all this, it is law binding to have an insurance policy in place before you use your vehicle.

anufactures release new models at all times of the year?

People shopping for cars today, face the same decisions they did in years past, 2-door or 4-door, car, truck, van, or SUV. The idea of buying versus leasing is now on the table once again. The idea of buying a car in the middle of 2007 and having to decide between a 2007 and a 2008 muddies the water. Some of these vehicles will be all-new models, others radically different, while still others with only slight alterations.
