Your recruiter

Your recruiter 4 Flares 4 Flares Photo Credit - Eric Yeager Have a bit of interview anxiety?  Heres a quick tip your recruiter is pulling for you. While most places arent hiring in bulk like they used to, recruiting/staffing has been cut back, which doubles, or even triples the work load a recruiter has on their plate.  When someone calls about your resume, its because you look the part on paper and they are hoping you are the part. This should instill some confidence in you. After passing the phone screen and scheduling a face-to-face interview, you best believe the hiring team is excited and wants you to be the one.  Sure, this doesnt mean you are a lock for the job, but up until this point they are loving your stuff, so try to smile, relax, and then charm the shit out of your interviewer(s). Stay positive through out the process, a negative attitude will only cause setbacks.  I read a post from Nicole Crimaldi yesterday on using the Law of Attraction to attain your goals.  It is a great post on the power of positive thought, and Im a 100% believer in how a positive attitude and positive thought becomes who you are.  BELIEVE that you are the best fit for the position and KNOW that you will perform wonderfully on the interview.  You might find yourself surprised to see how much better you interview once setting your attitude straight. One last thing.  Just because your recruiter may 3 you, this doesnt give you the right to act like their best friend.  Stay professional, and keep your personal distance them until you gain co-worker status.  Sarah White urges you to quit being so nice, and stop e-mailing her pictures of cute kitties.  Just because we are your recruiter, it doesnt mean you can Facebook us, or send Whats up? e-mails our way.  Doing that will be creepy, and we wont be pulling for you anymore. Got it? Photo Credit  Eric Yeager Recruiters: Do you agree with me?  Have a funny/creepy story to share about candidates being too nice/weird?  Think Im a jackass?  Whatever youre thinking, Id like to know. Job Seekers: What helps with your interview stress/anxiety?  Ever do something nice for your recruiter before or after being hired?

15 Bosses Share Their Biggest Launch Lessons - When I Grow Up

15 Bosses Share Their Biggest Launch Lessons - When I Grow Up Recognize some of those faces? Theyre the pretty, smart, bad-ass  mugs of successful business owners some former clients, and all friends! #blessed And because theyre all so kind and helpful, they agreed to answer the question: Whats the one thing that you wish you had done differently when you launched your business?   Youre gonna wanna take notes  ??   Rebecca Tracey  Business and Marketing expert for new coaches  The Uncaged Life I wish that I had focused in on a very specific topic and started creating content around JUST that topic. I had a few similar niches that I was trying to reach and didnt have a strategic plan in place, so wasted a lot of time blogging about stuff that didnt really lead people to buy a specific program from me. If I was to do it again Id create a program about ONE topic and write blog posts, do podcast interviews, create webinars, and opt-ins, and run FB ads ALL about this one specific topic with the intention of getting clients into that ONE program. So in a word FOCUS! Kira Sabin  Ringleader of the Dating Shitshow  The League of Adventurous Singles Given myself a big, fat break. I had so many expectations of what I needed to be doing, how much money I was supposed to be making, etc., that I about talked myself out of this business that I truly love. I now know this is a long-game process. You will evolve and grow and so will your business. Esmé Weijun Wang  Award-winning author and founder of The Unexpected Shape, a resource site for ambitious people living with limitations If I could launch my business all over again, I would spend *much less money* on educational products and coursesâ€"or, at least, I wouldve more carefully vetted the ones I did sign up for. I wasted literally thousands of dollars to learn outdated information from people who werent even experts in their field. Its l tempting to take All the Courses or read All the E-books, but information overload is a real thing. Be careful about whom you learn from (and Michelle is the Real Deal, FYI). April BowlesCreative Business Consultant  Blacksburg Belle I wish I wouldve truly believed in myself. In that first year of business, I wish I had a way to see the future and know that I was going to make it. It wouldve prevented a lot of sleepless nights and bellyaches, and I didnt really make it until I believed I could do it. Whether you think you can or think you cant, youre right. Henry Ford Jenny Blake  Business strategist and author of PIVOT: The Only Move That Matters is Your Next One  Jenny Blake I wish I had focused on creating steady, recurring cash flow, rather than project-based billing as many coaches are taught to do (i.e. billing for a 3- or 6-month engagement). With the project-based billing structure (or rather, lack of it), I never knew what I would be earning and when, and I felt like I was constantly chasing down invoices and new clients to pay the rent. Switching to monthly retainer billingâ€"where clients are billed on the first of every month, have 3 sessions at the same day/time each week, and can cancel at any timeâ€"saved my business and my sanity. I could finally predict how much I would be earning each month based on how many clients I had. In my book I call this a cash (flow) cowâ€"every business needs one! Kate Gremillion Career Consultant  Mavenly + Co.   I would have focused on doing one thing really well rather than try to be everything to everyone. I learned the hard way that not everyone is meant to be a client and some people can’t afford you and that’s OK. Listen to your gut, and be true to your mission. Sarah Von Bargen  Writer and teacher  Yes and Yes I wish Id been more strategic about how my blog posts related to my services and offerings. Sure, *some* of my blog posts related to what I did/sold, but the vast majority of what I published wasnt related. Be ye not so stupid as me! Susan Hyatt Master Certified Life Coach  SHyatt.com I wish that I had hired help sooner. In the beginning, I was doing everything myself, as most of us have to do. I wish that someone had said to me, Susan, you need to delegate and hire out everything that takes you away from your coaching magic. When I did hire an assistant at the end of my first year in business, it was a real game changer! Kate Swoboda Life Coach, Author, Director of the Courageous Living Coach Certification  Your Courageous Life Spent more time articulating exactly how, in very pragmatic terms relevant to someone’s day-to-day life, someone practices courage. I think that better articulation of what a courageous life looks likeâ€"beyond just endlessly talking about happiness, authenticity, and inspiration!â€"would have helped my right people find me and resonate with me, faster. At the same time, I appreciate the wide open space I gave myself for experimentation and figuring it all out, and especially since I love where I’ve ended up, on some level I wouldn’t change a thing! ?? Alexandra Franzen Author, Writer, Writing Teacher  AlexandraFranzen.com When I launched my writing business, at first, I had almost zero clients. I wasnt very busy. I had tons of free time. I wish I had used that free time to walk by the river every day, eat lunch outside, bask in the sunshine, or visit my mom and dad. But instead, I spent my time obsessively checking my Twitter stats and refreshing my inbox inside a dark room. All that precious time wasted. What I learned is that if youre not that busy, it can feel terrifying, but also it can be a huge gift. Being not that busy probably wont last forever, so cherish that free time while youve got it! A few years down the road, when youre solidly booked up, you might nostalgically reflect back on those early days and wish you were a little less busy all over again. Paula Jenkins Life and career coach  Jumpstart Your Joy I wish I had fully trusted that I already knew what I loved, and had the courage to follow that. It was easy, early on, to get distracted by the shoulds. When I boiled it down, I love helping people find their voice; I rejoice when people (re)discover what brings them joy, and I fought following the path that would let me do those things. It turns out that podcasting, coaching, and consulting is THE things that I adore and that I can do as my work, too. Tanya Geisler  Leadership Coach  TanyaGeisler.com Thinking that someone else had all the answers was a source of suffering early in my business build. I wish knew then, REALLY knew then, that I could trust my own guidance. Like, bank on it, trust. Sure, some people will have specific insight into specific challenges and its smart to ask for that helpbut for the most part? My way IS the way. Was then, is now. Tiffany Han Writer, Speaker, Teacher  TiffanyHan.com I wish thats Id gone BOLD with my message and given myself permission to stand out in this crowded marketplace. Its okay to turn heads yo! L’Erin Alta  Soul guide, Shadow diver, Spiritual teacher  SisterFire.com Nothing! No one promised that building a business would always be easy or simple or profitable â€" but I knew I was doing what I was born to do and that it would be worth it. So I studied, took courses, worked with coaches, applied what made sense, let go of what didn’t. I was focused and persevered, even when it was hard. I picked up part-time and temp and full-time jobs when my business wasn’t making money. I kept going and growing and learning and eventually created a business that I love (that loves me back). Shenee Howard Brand Strategist  Hey Shenee Mindset, baby! I know it sounds woo but I cant tell you how many of my problems early on were about my f-ed up mental game and not honoring my worth and setting boundaries with people. My best advice is to learn the business and the mindset required for being a business owner. That stuff is key. Oh! And talk to as many people as possible about the problems you solve. It will make everything easier! Want a custom plan to launch your business in 90 days? Make it happen now with an experienced guide at the helm (ahem ahem).

WeRateDogs Twitter Who Runs It and How Much Is It Worth

WeRateDogs Twitter Who Runs It and How Much Is It Worth Matt Nelson was standing on a street in Barcelona one day in late February, admiring a picture he’d just taken of graffiti, when a pickpocket on a bicycle swiped his phone. Nelson panicked, but not about the stranger possibly hacking into his bank account or leaking his personal contacts. “My first and most prominent worry was what if he tweets a penis from dog rates,” he’d later write on Twitter. The thief held what many would consider modern-day digital gold in his palm: the keys to Nelson’s WeRateDogs, the feel-good Twitter account at @dog_rates that shares and jokingly scores dog pictures twice daily. With more than 6.3 million followers that include the likes of J.K. Rowling, Cole Sprouse and Lin-Manuel Miranda, Nelson’s livelihood was tied completely to that iPhone X. And for the recent college dropout doing everything he can to extend his viral success into a lifelong career, the trip had just become infinitely more stressful. “My mom was like, ‘Oh, now you can relax and enjoy your vacation,'” he says. “And I’m like, ‘No, absolutely not.'” The Origin Tail Nelson catapulted into social media stardom from the unlikeliest of locations: an Applebee’s in North Carolina. On November 15, 2015, he and a few of his Campbell University friends were there after a golf tournament when he brought up the idea of @dog_rates. A longtime fan of Weird Twitter, Nelson had been privately workshopping the pitch for weeks. He would look at photos of dogs and, using humor and a 10-point scale, rate them on Twitter. “I saw other people doing extraordinary things in 140 characters â€" making me laugh and making me feel things in that limited character space. I got addicted to that challenge as well,” the 21-year-old Nelson says. “I realized dogs were a very hot topic on the internet. If I wanted my writing to reach more people, I wanted to utilize dogs.” Nelson created the @dog_rates Twitter account at that Applebee’s table and issued his first-ever rating â€" an 8/10, handed down to the pet of the golf bro sitting across from him. By the next morning, the account had 3,000 followers. Nelson’s direct messages were soon overflowing with people begging him to rate their dogs. When Things Got Ruff The problem with becoming an overnight sensation is that it takes a lot of effort to not fade out into irrelevancy in a nanosecond. Nelson devoted his entire life to the account until, he says, “it kind of just all collapsed.” Still at Campbell in spring 2016, Nelson was sleep-deprived and burnt out. He was posting up to 18 times a day while juggling classes on the complexity of golf course management. He was wielding a crazy amount of influence online, but broke IRL. At house parties, his friends would take his phone to prevent him from checking Twitter. “I was spending full-time work hours or more monitoring everything about the account,” he says. “Monetizing it became a necessity if I was going to continue doing it at that level.” Something had to give and finally did when Nelson contacted John Ricci, a social media marketer in Pennsylvania. The two had been in touch for months about monetizing the account, and Nelson wanted advice about selling @dog_rates. Nelson didn’t care about profit; he just wanted to get it over with. But Ricci said no â€" the account was too valuable to just dump for some quick cash. His solution: Instead of selling the profile, what if he just helped decrease the workload? Nelson agreed to let Ricci start sorting through submissions for him, and in doing so he unwittingly learned his first business lesson. “That told me that I need to be a good delegator if I’m not going to go crazy,” he says of letting someone else help curate quality dog content. Another thing he needed to do for the sake of sanity? Leave college. Last year, Nelson dropped out of Campbell to devote himself full time to @dog_rates. The choice took “way longer than it should have to make,” he says, but it’s been a good one so far. Nelson to retook control of his schedule, significantly reduced his expenses, and learned digital marketing on the fly. Matt Nelson courtesy of Matt Nelson The Daily Walk WeRateDogs LLC isn’t located in a sleek skyscraper in a booming metropolis â€" its headquarters is Nelson’s parents’ home in West Virginia. The house sits on a tree-lined road outside of downtown Charleston, a city described as “the heart of coal country,” near an area where pioneer Daniel Boone once lived. There, WeRateDogs’ operations are relatively simple. Nelson estimates he runs 95 percent of things from his iPhone (which, yes, he confirms, does require a massive data plan to handle all the dog photos). He has two remote employees: Ricci, who culls submissions down to about 20 each day, and Tyler Macke, who manages the WeRateDogs online store. His dad, an executive director of a law firm, advises him on finances. Nelson says he brings in “a low five figures” every month. At minimum, that puts him over $100,000 a year. For a young CEO pulling in those profits, Nelson is remarkably humble. When he talks, he’s well-spoken and unhurried. He peppers conversations with sarcastic and occasionally self-deprecating comments. He jokes that he never does anything cool enough to Instagram; he also can’t figure out how to brush his curly hair in a way that makes him looks older than 16. He refers to himself as the Dogfather â€" and all kidding aside, he may be the dog king of the Internet, with roughly 8 million total followers across seven profiles on three platforms. (That said, it’s clear Twitter is his favorite.) Nelson readily acknowledges that he’s surprised by his success, but he doesn’t gloss over the fact that he’s worked hard to break himself apart from the crowd of animal-themed content creators. He’s borderline obsessed with analytics and audience satisfaction, even taming his jokes so they appeal to everyone. For @dog_rates, Nelson usually tweets twice on weekdays, at noon and 8 p.m. He’s never scheduled a tweet, and he’s the only one who has ever posted (except Blake Shelton, who took over the account for a day last September). It usually takes about 20 minutes to perfect a caption. Once a tweet goes up, Nelson says he’s “glued to it” like a TV network executive in a control room, watching the number of favorites and retweets climb into the thousands. But Nelson’s empire is built on more than that. His brand of humor has become world-wide-web famous. For example, his dog ratings almost always exceed 10/10 â€" because, as he once fired back at a critic upset at inflated scores, all dogs are “good dogs.” The @dog_rates community enjoys a host of inside jokes, like the one in which Nelson frequently faux-reprimands followers for sending in animals that aren’t dogs. He even played a role in developing the language DoggoLingo, popularizing puns like “pupset” and censoring “heck” to “h*ck.” Because dogs just don’t curse. “My initial goal was just to make people happy,” he says. “Now I’m good at writing like a dog and embodying that behavior, because I’ve been surrounded by dog internet culture for two years.” Learning the Tricks Twitter may take up most of Nelson’s time, but it’s not WeRateDogs’ moneymaker. Neither is Nelson’s recently published book, #WeRateDogs: The Most Hilarious and Adorable Pups You’ve Ever Seen, or mobile game, Good Dogs! He makes most of his revenue from the WeRateDogs online store. At weratedogs.com, bestsellers include hats embroidered with phrases like “dog mom AF” for $26 and sweatshirts screen printed with “i miss my dog.” for $35. There are also T-shirts, pillows, stickers, mugs and beanies. Nelson and his team are preparing to launch a bigger, better shop, one where they can sell actual pet supplies like collars and leashes (“just think about ’12/10' on a dog bowl,” he says excitedly). But other than that, he’s declining most of the sponsorship opportunities filling his inbox. “That’s a revenue stream that we’ll probably continue to tap into, but we’re very selective,” he says. “That’s not why people follow us.” Despite this stance, Nelson’s audience has been supportive the few times he’s agreed to use the account for a brand deal. This past Valentine’s Day, for example, Nelson partnered with Disney to rate Lady and the Tramp’s spaghetti date. Several users noted that the post was an #ad, but they were fine with it. “I didn’t want to just throw a terrible product in front of people,” he says. “I wanted to remain very on brand and have actual content we were delivering still be what they’re looking for and what they like.” Maintaining that balance will likely be key to keeping WeRateDogs well-liked and profitable, says Mikolaj Jan Piskorski, author of the book A Social Strategy: How We Profit from Social Media. “Community management is a huge component of success with these guys,” Piskorski says. “The really good online influencers very explicitly explain to their audiences what they are willing and not willing to do for money.” Nelson says he’s saving nearly everything he’s earning from WeRateDogs. He’s exploring creative writing formats on WeRateDogs’ spinoff, @dog_feelings, and his biggest personal goal at the moment is to make people realize his comedy skills aren’t limited to writing in dog voice. He doesn’t think he’ll return to school anytime soon; he believes it would be much more beneficial continuing to be the Dogfather, working from home and hanging out with his biggest inspiration, his golden retriever Zoey. “Nobody’s going to stop liking dogs anytime soon, so there’s some job security there,” he says.
