Meet Jason (or, a break from the normal stuff)

Meet Jason (or, a break from the normal stuff) Im swamped with book marketing and my brain is kind of mush today so I thought Id take a break and join a meme. Here are eight random facts about me I almost always ask for just ice while on a plane. This is so (a) I dont spill liquid on my laptop, and (b) it doesnt go straight through me and make me use that tiny, eensie-weensie bathroom on the plane. Im rather shy. Im not the guy at the party (or networking event) or whatever that is hopping around introducing myself to everyone. At the same time Im not really happy being a wall flower so if Im not chatting with someone I try and find someone to talk with. I dont really like um, computers. Many of you may think Im a geek or nerd, but trust me, Im not. I used to manage geeks and nerds, and pretty much all they could do was talk ones and zeros. I have never built my own machine, installed an OS, or anything like that (I used to be a programmer, and I was good but I wasnt excellent). I LOVE to read. I just finished the last Harry Potter book (loved it), I love John Grisham, Michael Crichton, but had a hard time getting into Tom Clancy. I have a subscription to Inc and Fast Company, will usually read every page of a newspaper (not ads and not comics (anymore)), etc. Im not a morning person. By any measure. Its true that Ive been getting up around 6am (give or take an hour) but its not my choice. I have four kids. The oldest is almost ten, the youngest just turned one. I have a favorite son since hes the only son, and I tell him hes my favorite son every night. I kiss all my kids goodnight each night, and cherish our relationships (I have to now, while they still like me, right?). I think snakes are the best pets around. I used to love all animals but now that Im old and cranky I dont want anything that will shed or shed (sic) in my house. You can ignore snakes and they dont care. You can feed them once a month. They are cool, scary and creepy all at the same time. I take my kids snake hunting in the summer and they love it (and their friends think Im very cool). I am kind of afraid of heights. Nothing that needs counseling. But when I was a kid I fell through a roof. You know, that sturdy thing that you shouldnt fall through? Ever since then I hate being on the roof (adios Christmas lights). The rules are here, on Andrews blog. Ive been tagged by others sorry for taking so long to get this up. Id like to tag YOU leave at least ONE random fact about yourself as a comment Id love to get to know you better (yes, even you, blog lurker!)

The Curious Life of a Mobile Veterinarian

The Curious Life of a Mobile Veterinarian The following is a guest post by  Kelly Wright.  Her bio follows. When you picture a veterinary office, you probably imagine a classic set-up: a small building, front desk, waiting room, and exam rooms. But what if I told you that some vets prefer four wheels to four walls, and instead of a permanent address their location depends on the customer? Welcome to the world of mobile veterinarians! During interviews for a recent feature, True Stories: Veterinarians Share Tales of Overcoming Career Challenges, we had the pleasure of speaking to a few vets who took their expertise on the road. Here are a few of the insights they shared with us: Seeing a pet in its own environment makes an important difference Veterinary house calls aren’t just convenient for pet owners; in fact, Dr. Lisa Aumiller of HousePaws Mobile Veterinary Service said traveling around New Jersey and Pennsylvania to her clients’ homes actually gives her valuable insight. “Seeing my patients and their owners in their own environment gives me a whole new understanding of their environment and lifestyle,” she explained. “Some of those sniffling bunnies that never got better on antibiotics â€" I now get to see their cage environment and the air quality of their house first hand. Vomiting cats? I get to assess the food and treats in their cabinets as well as the litterbox to see if they are having truly normal stools.” Dr. Aumiller said that no matter how prepared a pet parent is, getting to see the animal’s home is always ideal. “You can ask clients a zillion ‘correct’ questions, but nothing is as informative as seeing first-hand what is going on,” she noted. Treating a pet at home can make heartbreaking situations a little easier Dr. Elizabeth Carney said that her work with Peaceful Pet Passage in Pennsylvania offers a unique way to say goodbye; instead of an unfamiliar medical office, owners are able to send their beloved pets to rest from their very own homes, comforted by familiar surroundings. “At the start of my veterinary career, I could not have imagined this is the niche in which I would be working, but now that I am doing it, I know it is my calling,” she said. Dr. Tyler Carmack, a vet with Hampton Roads Veterinary Hospice in Virginia, recalled a very special patient named Harley. The family pet and loyal watchdog had reached the end of his battle with bone cancer. And his family hoped to end his pain without making him leave the home he’d so faithfully guarded: “We sat around their outdoor fire pit and allowed Harley to fall asleep peacefully with his family around him. As he passed, I was able to tell his family that he was officially ‘off duty’ and finally resting comfortably, keeping an eye on everyone from dog heaven. “They were so relieved for him that saying goodbye and thank you was another wonderful memory for them,” she said. Treating pets at home is rewarding for the vet, too Like any job, being a mobile vet takes its emotional toll.  Especially when a large part of your responsibility is end-of-life care. But Dr. Rebecca McComas of MN Pets in Minnesota said being out of the traditional office setting is not only better for the patient and owner, ultimately it makes it more fulfilling for her, too. “As a mobile veterinarian who travels to clients homes to help with euthanasia, Ive witnessed some remarkable bonds between people and animals,” she reflected. “Many of our clients describe their animal companion as a best friend or partner. Many tell me that they grieve the loss of an animal more deeply than the loss of some humans in their lives.  And I think its understandable, given how much time we spend with our pets.” And while Dr. Aumiller left her job working long hours in a busy vet clinic, she said being on the road makes the time commitment a completely different experience. “I still work before sunrise and after sunset but my days are full of scenic adventures,” she mused. Kelly Wright explores and celebrates the magical and mysterious bond between pets and people for Rover.com’s Animal Heroes section. Do you have an amazing story about how an animal has brought joy and wonder to your life? Please  share it!  Email her at [emailprotected].  Are you interested in working closely with animals from the comfort of YOUR own home?  Consider  pet sitting with Rover.com.  Its  an excellent option no matter where you are!

Networking and Business Growth for Massage Therapists - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career

Networking and Business Growth for Massage Therapists - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career Im surprised at the number of people who think networking is a waste of time. They think its silly, or some piece of business jargon that means standing around with a coffee in your hand talking about nothing. I especially hear it from people who dont have jobs that typically rely on networking, but they believe in the power of word-of-mouth referrals from satisfied clients. Networking is just another version of word-of-mouth. The only difference is, your network is made up of people who are in the same or similar industries; satisfied customers may or may not be a good alliance for you. I know a few massage therapists, all who are doing anything and everything they can to find new clients. But if they were to just have coffee a few times a month with a few strategically important people, they could change their whole business model. Most massage therapists I know work alone, and rely on satisfied clients and friends to bring them new business, or they work for someone else, and still have to bring in their own clients. Regular repeat business is their bread and butter, because its money they can count on. This is why networking is important. What if you could create an entire network of people who were all looking out for you, could be an ongoing referral source for you, and could constantly refer people to you? How would that work? Who are people who typically need massage work? People who have back and spinal problems. Office workers who sit at a desk all day. People who have been injured and are going through therapy. People who carry their stress in their shoulders, necks, and backs. Who do you know who knows those kinds of people? Start looking for common threads, because thats where the linchpins â€" the referral sources â€" will be found. Who helps people with back and spinal problems? Chiropractors. Who is concerned for the health and well-being of office workers? Human resources professionals. Who knows people who are going through physical therapy? Physical therapists. Who knows people who are concerned with being relaxed and having a more positive outlook on life? Yoga instructors. So what should you do? Print out some flyers and deliver them to all the chiropractors, independent HR specialists, physical therapists, and yoga instructors in the phone book? No. Its a complete waste of money, time, and paper. Yes, youll reach everyone, but no one will have any reason to trust you, and they wont be invested in helping you. You need to get to know one or two people from each profession, at least in the beginning. You need to get to know them fairly well, let them get to know and like you, and start referring people their way. Heres how it works: You have a client who says they have some back issues, so you recommend them to your chiropractor or yoga instructor. You know a business owner who comes to you regularly because theyre stressed about work, so you recommend your HR specialist. And someone comes to you after a sports injury or car accident, so you send them to your physical therapist. By doing this, youre helping your network grow their own business, and they get the idea that this is the kind of thing you would like them to do too (it helps if you tell them this outright). And all it takes is a few referrals to get the ball rolling. If everything is working correctly, it begins snowballing and getting bigger and bigger. It also wont hurt to begin to expand your network either. Add a couple chiropractors, a couple yoga instructors, a couple therapists as time goes by. You may have to stagger referrals, or maybe your network is made up of people who specialize, which makes it even easier. The HR professionals may specialize in professional offices versus manufacturers. The yoga instructors may differentiate between regular yoga and hot yoga. And the chiropractors may have different patient bases. In all these cases, you can refer people to the appropriate specialist, and still keep your network happy. With any luck, pretty soon most of your business could come from referrals rather than advertising or relying on word-of-mouth. Networking is one of the most powerful tools you can use to grow your business, because it means you have other people working on our behalf, rather than spending money on marketing and advertising, which ultimately gets lost in the general marketing mix that we all ignore. But networking is that ever-present relationship that only needs to be maintained with social media and email contact, coffee, and the occasional lets celebrate lunch among friends. It will be the cheapest, and most effective, kind of marketing youll ever do.

Research Resume Writing - Using Color For Effects

Research Resume Writing - Using Color For EffectsEmployers who need to conduct thorough and in-depth research resume writing for job applications will be interested in knowing that using color in resume writing is one of the most effective ways to accomplish this goal. But, color doesn't always have to be the main focus of your resume, or even the focus of your cover letter. There are many other colors that can also add value to your application.Think about what the employment context looks like in your company. What colors do you think that would be most appropriate for your employers? If the job you are applying for is in a very bright yellow color, it may not be the best idea to use it as the main color in your resume.In the same way, if your employment context is in a light blue color, your resume should still be in that color. Your resume should stand out in contrast with other colors. This can be done by using shades of the main color you are using on your cover letter, rather than focusing on using the main color in your resume.By simply choosing a shade of blue that contrasts with the main color on your cover letter, it can still reflect back the main colors in your background color. The strength of your message should not be overshadowed by colors that could have been more suitable. While it may seem counterproductive to use brighter colors to demonstrate a bold point, it's just best to show both sides of the argument.Research resume writing can be an effective tool, especially when it's used correctly. There are many creative uses for a little color, so long as it isn't overdone. Even better, those colors can complement each other to help you convey more about your personality and skills.For example, if you want to emphasize the aspect of your education, you can use strong primary colors as your outline. From there, use darker colors to tie the main point of your education to the highlighted sections. In order to do this, you may want to choose blues and greens that contrast with the main point of your education.When using primary colors as a focal point, you want to make sure to use complementary colors to tie together the points you want to reinforce. It can be easy to end up using too much of one primary color and it can be overwhelming. Again, this is the same concept used when writing a resume. There's no reason to overdo your color choice.Rather than putting the emphasis on the main colors, you can use lighter or darker shades to reinforce the work of the colors around it. Or, if you are more concerned with the employment context of the main colors, you can choose them as an outline for your resume. By combining the secondary and tertiary colors, you can create a strong resume that stands out from the rest.

Is the last mile in your companys customers journey letting you down

Is the last mile in your companys customers journey letting you down You’ve got a problem: too few of your website visitors are turning into leads. This can be super frustrating. You’ve got a great social media presence promoting your side hustle. Your website is regularly updated with content. You’ve used Google Analytics and can see your ads and organic content are bringing in traffic. Why is your sales and marketing funnel letting you down then? One likely reason is that the last mile in your customers’ journey is failing you. What is the ‘last mile’ in the customer journey, and what can you do to improve it? What is the last mile in the customer journey? The ‘last mile’ is a sales and marketing term borrowed from the telecommunications industry. Broadband and telephone providers talk about the last mile when referring to the final copper wiring that connects the consumer’s home to the broader telecommunications network. Even if they have the best infrastructure in place, telecom firms still need to make sure this last connection is working â€" otherwise the whole enterprise is a waste of time. In sales and marketing, the last mile refers to the final stages of the sales and marketing funnel. Just like the telecoms infrastructure, you can have all the sales and marketing funnel in place â€" a great SEO strategy, business listings on Google Maps, a website packed full of content, active social media and all the brochures and sales content to send clients. But, without the last mile in place, all that infrastructure is a waste of time. The last mile in eCommerce is typically the shopping basket and checkout. In service companies and the B2B sector, the last mile is very often little more than the ‘contact us’ form. So, when we talk about improving the ‘last mile’ in sales and marketing, we’re talking about improving the customer’s experience when they have reached that decision to buy. Why does the last mile go wrong? If you’re frustrated about customers dropping off at the last mile, you’re not alone! Research suggests that a huge 70% of eCommerce customers abandon their shopping baskets during the last mile. That’s a huge amount of potential business lost! There’s plenty of reasons that customers drop off at the last mile. As data from Statista shows, many customers drop off simply because they were only browsing and never expected to buy â€" they were probably never going to convert. Nonetheless, 21% of customers drop off because the process takes too long, and 25% say they leave without paying when website navigation is too complicated. These are things you can change â€" often relatively easily. Imagine you could reduce last mile drop off by just 5% the impact would be huge. 4 steps to improve the last mile on your site If you’re running a side hustle or an online business, you might not have the time to build an elaborate website which closes that last mile gap. So, what can you do instead? The good news is that there’s tons of tools, tweaks and cheats which make it a lot easier to close that last mile. Let’s look at some tactics and tools you can incorporate into your website to close the customer journey. Include Calls to Action (CTA) It seems like a simple change to make but including multiple CTAs around your website can have a huge impact on customer conversion. A CTA is a simple piece of website copy â€" usually a button â€" telling or asking the reader to do something. Use simple, direct CTAs with expressions like: Book a free consultation today Order now Contact me today The benefit: people aren’t left confused  CTAs mean visitors know what to do next and are therefore more likely to do as the CTA says. Make your calendar visible Do you provide any kind of service? Share your calendar live on your website. A simple live calendar showing when you are available means visitors know what times you’re free and can book your time. The benefit: save yourself and your customers the tedium of sending emails back and forth. Instead, let them see when you’re free and book your time without the hassle. Cut the steps required to book you and your services No one wants to ‘sign up’ for an account when ordering something online â€" the pain of remembering passwords, sharing data with another company, being put on one more email list. Once people have decided you’re the company for them, don’t turn them off with a complex process â€" make things as easy and seamless as possible with simple scheduling tools. The benefit: Anything you can do to reduce the number of steps needed to book your services makes it more likely for customers to finish that last mile. Facilitate payment As above, complex payment methods turn customers off in an instant. No one wants to jump through hoops to pay for a product or service â€" it should be as seamless as possible. Use common online payment services like Stripe and PayPal to make it easy as possible for people to pay. The benefit: receive payment easily and securely, while making it super simple for customers to pay you. Shorten the last mile with Book Like a Boss If your website visitors don’t seem to be turning into leads, your last mile might be letting you down. The problem for so many small businesses, side hustlers and solopreneurs is that improving that last mile of the customer journey typically involves using a lot of complex tech and website optimization. If you don’t have the time to tweak your website for hours on end adding plugins and APIs, tools like Book Like a Boss do the heavy lifting for you. Using Book Like a Boss gives you a ready to use web page which includes a calendar where visitors can view your availability and book and pay for your services. You get access to an easy to use dashboard and can take your first bookings in minutes. To find out more, visit Book Like a Boss today.

Find Out Why You Were Rejected from a Job with These Tips

Find Out Why You Were Rejected from a Job with These Tips Leaving an interview   knowing that you did not do everything in your power to get it can be demoralizing. But, its also a learning experience. What went wrong? How can I correct this problem? What is holding me back? There are some things you should examine about your resume and how you showcase yourself. Here are some tips to updating your resume and getting that job interview to go in your favor. 1. Include your contact information whenever you send out emails. A quick fix, adding an email signature. 2. Forgetting to attach your resume or documents to your emails. As soon as you write, “attached” make sure you attach the document. Gmail actually has a function that asks if you want to attach something when you write “attach”. 3. Sending an email before youre ready. Try sending it to yourself before sending it to HR managers. This way you can proof your email and make sure that its exactly what you want to send. 4. Leaving odd, incomplete or incoherent phone messages. Nothing sounds worse than being rushed or fumbling through your words as you leave a message, Umm, Hi. What? Oh, Hi, this is John   What if the voicemail server doesnt have a redo function? Now you look a little silly. Speak slowly so that you can gather your words and leave a smart, coherent message. Leave your name at the beginning and end with your name and phone number. 5. Lying on your LinkedIn or Facebook profiles. Saying that youre a consultant when youve been out of work for 2 years does not look good. People will think youre employed and look over you for prospective positions. Instead, say that youre looking for “new opportunities” or “a change of pace”. 6. Not telling people that you are looking for a job. Send an email to your friends and family and let them know that youre actively seeking a job. You would be surprised at the amount of people who will come to you with new opportunities. Update your LinkedIn profile to let people know that you are looking for a job. The more people who know that youre looking, the higher your chances of landing a job. 7. Forgetting to use your most current email address. Many people leave older email address on their resume and fail to check their mail as they move on to new servers. You can solve this problem by email all of your contacts from your new email address, as well as updating your resume with the most up-to-date information. Make sure your online profiles include your email address as well. 8. Check your email messages for grammar or spelling errors. Nothing is worse than crafting a thought out email, sending it and then realizing that youve misspelled “Marketnig”. Its a dead giveaway that you do not possess the eye for detail you claim. Spell check before you send that message.
