Your ability to keep and grow your income is key to your success in several areas of your life. A stimulating career is something you deserve, and the following services may well help you find or preserve that.
****All services/age group definitions are explained below****
1. TwitterVatorSpeech Creation
One of the hardest parts of writing a book is creating a strategic, back-cover summary of it. My new book tells HOW TO create your own TwitterVator Speech, but some people still want my help to summarize their career and their personal marketability IN 140 CHARACTERS!!
I can create YOUR TwitterVatorSpeech. Just send me your pasted resume and a few sentences of what you want to do "when you grow up," and what you feel your highest expertise is, and I'll build your TwitterVator Speech. I'll deliver it via email in less than 24 hours from when I start the project. I will also include a couple of helpful hints as to how/where you should use it.
TwitterVatorSpeech and TwitterVatorSpeech.com are NOT associated with twitter.com, the company. See twitter.com to learn more about this wildly popular social media site and you'll know why you should have a great blurb for its "What Are You Doing?" update box. That site has about 20+ million registered users! Plus, www.linkedin.com now has direct links and posts your status updates directly to www.Twitter.com. Send the information to:
services "at" growmedia "." com
PLEASE Indicate "TwitterVator Speech Request" in the subject box.
TwitterVatorSpeech creation price: $30
TwiterVator Speech for Mature Workers(25+ years of experience): $55
Express versions (12 hour turnaround) of the above: Add $20.00
* Your TwitterVator Speech is the blend of your most marketable work skills with an "elevator speech" about your ability to help an employer (or a client of your small business)--all boiled down to 140 characters. You can use and reuse your TVS in today's Social Media (Twitter.com, FaceBook.com, Linkedin.com, etc.) update boxes and many other places!
"In today's fast-paced business climate, more and more professionals are finding the value of owning their own brief-but-strategic TwitterVatorSpeech."
Your existing resume may well be OK since you have worked hard on it, constantly revised it, asked co-workers and relatives about it, studied internet sites about resumes, and have even read books about it.
But, IS there a little ‘gotcha’ that you are just too close to see? Employers get STACKS of resumes everyday, so my little Resume Tweak may make a big difference for you!
Put an set of expert eyes to work for you! Simply email me your pasted resume document. Within 30 minutes (from when I start on it) you’ll have my emailed opinion about the changes that I recommend you make, if there are any. I don't fix your resume or do it for you. I just give you a bulleted list of the things you should, in my expert opinion, need to change. This is inexpensive peace of mind for the price of a couple of pizzas!
All Resume Tweaks are $19 for the REST OF MAY 2010! Call it May MADNESS in light of the NBA playoffs -- or something....
Satisfaction guaranteed or it is free!
This process is all done by email--send your pasted resume to:
There is still a need for full resumes and cover letters (or cover paragraphs). Most employers require the completion of an online job application form and a resume -- don't skimp on this still-important document!
HR departments retain the "legal" online application in their systems. They use your resume to decide if you are good enough to get considered by the hiring manager.
If you make that cut, the hiring manager decides about interviewing you based on your resume. Your document might get only "15 seconds of fame" so doesn’t it make sense to have the best, expertly prepared resume possible?
A. Full-Boat Resume Preparation.
This is just like it sounds—the "full boat," top-to-bottom creation, reinvention, makeover and strategic summary of what your career has done and why that qualifies you for the position you seek. Your America's Job Coach resume will emerge as a stellar, persuasive document of your career history -- something you’ll be proud to use to market yourself!
In addition to your pasted versions of old resumes, job descriptions, or your bullets about what you have done recently, I'll most likely need to interview you (typically via an evening or weekend phone call) to learn more about you. I'll be asking about your career goals and aspirations, stories about your past work history as well as current self-marketing successes or failures. Samples of former resumes or resume drafts all help here too.
For full boat resume services contact me at:
services "at" growmedia "." com
Turnaround time for a full boat resume is about 48 hours unless you need it "expressed" (an extra charge applies to express versions).
Your satisfaction is guaranteed or it is free!

COVER LETTER / COVER PARAGRAPHS:
I believe in short, sweet, strategic cover letters/paragraphs. Two types exist. The first is the paragraph you use if you are applying online for a specific position at a specific company. It is highly focused on that firm and that job and what you can do for them. It may or may not be seen by the hiring mangager. It may be simply used on the application field/box used on an automated job application. It MAY be the thing that gets a screener to look at your resume!
The second type of cover letter/paragraph is one which goes into a personalized email or snail mail document sent directly to the hiring manager or company executive. It may be an inquiry about potential employment or it could regard a specific, known open position. In either case, the second "direct" cover letter/paragraph is highly strategic and is very different than the generic cover letter. The biggest difference is that this version goes directly to a key person at the employer.
COVER LETTER PRICES
A. Generic Online Cover / Paragraph: $25 (all groups) B. Targeted Cover Letter to a key individual inside an employer: $65 (except "Seniors") C. Targeted Cover Letter For Seniors to a key individual inside an employer: $85

America's Job Coach stands strong at the intersection of Social Media, job placement, and career/self promotion.
Each individual's situation, needs, and goals vary greatly and the Social Media revolution is still like the Wild, Wild West. There is no "one size fits all" template which will turn your Social Media campaign into a home run.
After learning the scope of your needs and goals, I create a proposal of what I you need to do with Social Media to take you there. Also, included will be you very specific pricing for what you'll get. Some clients only need $50 worth of my help to create / enhance their social profiles. Others may need ten times that of my help, if they have ambitious "rock star" aspirations within social media.
