The technology sector is booming, and an increasing number of IT professionals are re-thinking how to write a resume in order to show off their skills to best advantage. This growing market is thirsty for aptitude with a specific technology focus and savvy IT workers are benefiting from increasing competition for their expertise.They're not the only ones taking advantage of the digital revolution. Recruiters are also using technical advances to work more efficiently, using software solutions to find resumes that match particular criteria. Applicant tracking systems (ATS) allow busy human resources staff to quickly screen large numbers of resumes and find those that match specific preferences such as job-related skills, relevant work history and an applicant's location.If you're not sure whether to prepare your resume to be 'scanner-friendly', it might be advisable to enquire of a prospective employer whether they use software to process applications that t

If you leap into EA without first researching your target group, you'll end up wasting a lot of time and money. Plus, you probably miss some of the best ezines available.

Steve called from Minneapolis to ask how to attract new clients for his auto repair shop. He has been in business for two years and has four trained technicians to keep busy, but he was having difficulty attracting enough new customers.Steve wasn't just waiting for people to show up at his shop. He regularly mailed letters to new homeowners in the area. His rationale was that people who had just moved into town would be looking for a mechanic before long.Steve wanted to know why what seemed like a good strategy wasn’t working. Why was he only getting one or two inquires from each mailing to 500 prospects? He asked me if he was targeting the right people. "Anyone with a car is in my target market, right?"Good question. In theory, yes, any car owner living in the area is a potential client. But in reality, car owners have very different attitudes towards car maintenance.Steve was making the same mistake that most small business owners make in t
The reason: Ezine Advertising (EA) matches your product or idea to people with similar interests.
Example: who better to sell your health product to than a large group of people subscribed to a health newsletter? Or, you could pitch a business opportunity to a group already subscribed to another ezine about MLM and Biz Ops!
The idea of EA is fairly simple - but to make yours a success, you have to first determine which ezines or newsletters produce results, and which ones to avoid.
After a year and a half of EA, I've created a formula that produces increasing profit because I’ve learned how to avoid poor performing ezines and rip offs, while revealing the gems.
Strategy for Profit
I used to get ripped off about once for every 2 or 3 ezines I advertised in. They either took my money without running my ad (and ignored my subsequent emails), or my proven ads did too poorly for the money I paid.
The reasons ranged from abandoned ezines with working payment links, unethical newsletter owners, to a lot of ignorance and impatience on my part.
If you follow my proven strategy, you'll discover the best sources of ezines to advertise in - no matter who your target group is. And, you should see positive results every time.
This article outlines the steps to making your EA a successful return on investment (ROI).
Writing Your Ad
I won't go into details about ad writing, but if your ad is poorly written or untested, you should start with the cheapest ezines first. If you’re really unsure of your writing abilities, I further suggest hiring a professional to write your ad for you. Because you can run your ad as many times as you want, your investment in a professional will more than pay for itself in the end.

Have you ever told your significant other that you want to work from home and make money online, only to have her say "Work from home? Business success online is a myth, darling - get a real job!" Unfortunately, even today many still believe that when you work from home, business success will amount to little more than $10-$50 a month (maybe $100 if you're very lucky). The goal of this article is to dispel three of the most popular myths about working from home and earning money online.1. "Don't Work from Home - Business Success is Impossible Online"This statement is just plain untrue, pure and simple. There are people out there who earn hundreds of thousands a year every day by selling products online - and I happen to know some of them. In fact, the Internet is very profitable, because once you have an electronic product like an e-book, you can sell additional copies of it at no extra cost (compared to physical products, where you have t

I’ve had some very interesting meetings over the last couple of weeks with organisations that, on the surface, seem to have it all together. They are well branded names, they seem to have the right people in the right seats on the bus, they pay well, they do all they can to develop their staff, and the list could go on. However, what they don’t seem to have is a culture of getting things done.This has severe consequences, not only internally on frustration levels and time wasted on incessant follow-up, but more importantly on service delivery to the customer. We are all customers at some time and what we want more than anything else is to deal with someone who understands we don’t have all day. We want someone to serve us that has a sense of urgency and that cares.It doesn’t sound like a lot – in fact, it is two little things. Urgency and caring. The two words seem so innocuous when you see them written like that but they have such power.So often i

CNC machining is a job sits comfortably atop the hierarchy of manufacturing jobs. A skilled machinist can command a very good salary in fact $60,000 a year or more is not uncommon.As a CNC machinist your job will also be more secure and safe from outsourcing. This is due to the level of skill required to be successful and while simple tasks such as assembly are being outsourced a rapid rate. This is not to say that outsourcing will have no effect in the machineing field, or that your job will never be outsourced because any job white or blue-collar is facing the outsourcing pinch.Finding a job as a CNC machinist shouldn't be too hard. Most manufacturing companies have machining departments and there are many shops that specialize in just CNC. Landing one of these jobs will be much easier if you have some machining experience, or if you have a degree from a technical college. If you don't have a degree from a technical college or any experience I'll t

You've launched your web site. You've implemented a public relations campaign and spent oodles of money advertising in trade journals, magazines and newspapers. But your site's daily visitors are still in single digits and your sales are...well let's just say that early retirement is no longer an option.Now what?Perhaps it's time to try email marketing. Or, to be specific, an email newsletter. After all, they require minimal effort to produce, and are proven to increase sales.Of course, there are many other reasons why email newsletters make good business sense. Here's just a few of them: You can create a marketing campaign on a shoestring budget.You can measure the results and find out what works and what doesn't.You can build a personal relationship with a large group of people.Your subscribers pick YOU when they opt-in to your list.You can track customer behavior.You can collect u
Target your advertising
If you leap into EA without first researching your target group, you'll end up wasting a lot of time and money. Plus, you probably miss some of the best ezines available.
To determine who your prospect is, take the time to list the possible keywords that directly relate to your product and do keyword searches for ezines, newsletters, and ezine directories.
For example, if you sell herbs, a good keyword search would include: herbs, health, nutrition, supplements, etc.
Avoid Co-ops
While doing your ezine research, you will probably stumble upon the offer to use Co-op (bulk) advertising as the means for your EA.
To be blunt, you should never pay to use Co-ops for your EA because they are too difficult to track and usually contain untargeted ezines. Worse still, you’d find that most never run your ad.
Subscribe
Now that you’ve found your ezine target group, you’ll want to know whether the ezines you found are a good option (i.e. profitable) for your EA.
I’ve found the best strategy for making this determination is to subscribe to the targeted ezines.
To keep the subscriptions readily available for further research, I recommend creating a separate folder to store your subscription data.
And because you’ll need to subscribe to quite a few ezines, I also suggest creating separate email accounts dedicated to your ezine subscriptions.
Double Opt-In Subscriptions
In the process of subscribing, you’ll quickly determine possible ezines to avoid. When you subscribe and get a notice that you must confirm your subscription, the ezine is referred to as “double opt-in”.
Double opt-in ezines indicates a better quality of subscribers with a lower risk of bulk email addresses. For you and me, this means better ad responses (yeah!).
Solo Ads
Within the first week of your new ezine subscription, you should see solo ads from other advertisers. If not, the ezine may be too new, or worse, no one is advertising because of poor results. Worse
