“Discover Unselfish Self Promotion, the Most Powerful Marketing Strategy in the World”

Learn to Promote Yourself, Your Products or Your Company

Find a New Job, Get a Promotion or Supercharge Your Career

 Can you imagine a Self-Help, Self-Improvement and Self-Promotion book all wrapped into one? How about one that makes you a marketing expert at the same time? This is exactly what you will get with “The Unselfish Guide to Self Promotion”.

Self Promotion is a universal emotional state. It started with self preservation in the age of the caveman and continues to this date. “The Unselfish Guide to Self Promotion” guides you to discover new ideas and strategies on how to promote yourself with an unselfish approach by helping others. Being unselfish will sell yourself, your ideas & your influence to your family, friends & in business.

You will read some extremely hands-on, step-by-step, practical how-to advice and you will also read a bit of philosophical, motivational and hopefully life-changing views (I just can’t help myself). After all, we are not just physical, not just emotional, or not just thinking beings, we are all of the above. To imprint who we really are on others we will have to see ourselves from the inside out, and then communicate this to others in an unselfish self promotion kind of way.

I consider this book to be also a Brand Management Guide. You are the brand manager and you are your own product. So in essence you are your own Brand Manager. What does this mean? You have to communicate to people your best selling proposition, convince others why you are so great, the finest, and the most sought after. To do this you must use Public Relations, the Internet, and candid conversation, among other tools. In this book you will learn easy as well as advanced marketing techniques to promote yourself. What’s the catch? Well, you have to do it all unselfishly! How? You’ll see!

You will be an expert in self promotion half through this book. Learn the strategies and secrets for selling, marketing and promoting yourself in business, in your job and in life.

Discover the power of unselfish self promotion and how to use it to change your life and the life of others.

You can use the powerful secrets of self promotion to get a better job or a raise, to grow your business exponentially and to have a rewarding and happy social and family life.

Book is 224 Pages Paperback packed with original content, marketing ideas and great stories.

Reid Hoffman, the CEO of Linkedin.com was on CNN yesterday talking about LinkedIn and giving tips on how to use it. The interview lasted about 15 minutes and covered social network, professional networks, and job hunting.

Most impressively the CNN announced that LinkedIn currently has 36 million members around the world. That’s incredible if you consider a few months ago it only had 28 million members. How is this possible? Simple, LinkedIn has a new signup every single second.

The CEO says LinkedIn is perfect for finding information or to find a job. You can also post question on business strategy. For example, Mr. Hoffman asked on LinkedIn where he should open his European office. He got good tips like cities with multiple international flights.

To find a job he says “Applicants with complete profiles, recommendations and connections are getting highest response rates when applying for jobs. You can get an edge when finding a job by connecting to the hiring manager”.

LinkedIn has a new feature on the Group section, it is a job board. This is a great idea as many people are using the Group Discussion as a job board and many group administrators don’t like it. Many administrators even posted a dedicated discussion thread for jobs, many times entitled “Post Your Jobs Here”.

As of today, you can’t see the job board inside groups by simply looking at a list of groups; this is probably a bug. You actually have to click something within the groups such as news, discussion, or any other link. After you click any link you will see Jobs as part of the main menu within the post.

This new feature will complement the general Job feature that you see at the top of LinkedIn as one of their main menu items together with People, Answers, and Companies. The difference is that the Group Jobs are free to post, so you’ll see many more jobs there than in the general job posting.

What to do if you are looking for a job? Join all the groups that you can, LinkedIn allows you to join 50. Join the groups that relate to your industry or job expertise and also join any groups of HR or Recruiting professional so you can network with them. Finally, join groups in your city or area. For example, I live in San Diego, California and there are more than 10 groups dedicated to San Diegans.

Once you join all the groups go to the job posting part of the groups and start scanning for jobs. Contact the person that posted the job directly and strike a conversation or relationship. Don’t just send resumes to everyone, otherwise you are missing the point of networking. Remember, the power of LinkedIn lies in the people, the relationships you can establish and how you use these relationships.

If you have not already, make sure you profile is complete with photo, job history, education, skills, etc. This way the recruiters of HR managers can check you out before giving you a call.

Have you ever seen “I’m an open networker” and wondered “what is that?” Especially after you see it 5, 10, even 20 times on LinkedIn.

So what is the big deal with open networkers? What is an open networker?

An open network on LinkedIn or any other social network is someone that is willing to accept your invitation if you send one. Yes, even if they don’t know you and or know someone you know they will accept your invitation.

Why would anyone accept all invitation?

If you accept all invitations and are an open network you want to grow your network as fast as possible. Many people really don’t understand why you should expand your network in this way and I’ve received many emails asking “why should anyone accept people in their network if they don’t know them”.

Expanding your network is not difficult and I think not the real question. The real question is “what can you do with your network once you have 7,000 in it?”

I spoke with 5 people last week that have more than 3,000 and don’t know what to do next. This is s typical problem, it is one thing to accept all invitations and expand your network and it is another to leverage them.

If you are not super marketing savvy chances are you don’t have a funnel to point your network. You don’t have a blog, or a newsletter or a way to get people from your linkedin.com network to your own private network.

What is the key? They key is value! The key is “Unselfish Promotion”. If you add value to your network you will easily get them to subscribe to your blogs or newsletters and down the line offer you a job, or buy your products or whatever you are promoting.

Some important advice, adding value does not mean telling people about your great products or letting them know about what incredible features and benefits your products carry. That’s advertising, not unselfish promotion.

You need to create value with real, usable, free information and yes, at the end feel free to plug your website, job, product or company.

It’s amazing that I came across this post. Being new to Linked In, I too wanted to begin making professional and reputable contacts, but my sixth sense was telling me that sending out invites to the unknown masses was not the best way to go. I am in the beggining stages of researching and preparing to begin my consulting career and this has just confirmed that I am going to continue to work hard at gaining reliable contacts!

LinkedIn is a great way to find consulting clients as you can establish yourself as an expert in your industry.

Jorge Olson Read the rest of this entry

Are you using the internet to market yourself, your products and your company? Is your strategy based on value and not advertising? Do you follow up weekly with customers, leads, end users and partners? I’ve been interviewed a few times for blogs and radio stations on the subject of social media, networking, web 2.0 and LinkedIn and now on Success Magazine.

The article talks about how to use the new generation of technology and the internet to market and sell yourself and your products and to stay relevant and keep your business in front of the competition and to make relationships with your prospects, leads and customers.

“Entrepreneur, author and speaker Jorge Olson says such online resources can help a salesperson add a few hundred leads to their database every month. After reading a few articles or case studies by the salesperson, these potential customers tend to qualify themselves by pursuing more information from the salesperson if they’re interested.  After that initial qualification, “you’ll have leads that consider you an authority on the subject,” Olson says. ”
