Book Review: Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters 3.0

                                                                            

    "Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters contains powerful strategies that you can apply today and make a drastic and effective change in your path to your career success" Jim Pagiamtzis

In the past year, 50-million jobs were filled in the United States  —  almost all without a job posting!
The jobs weren’t posted because of a change in the way employers hunt for candidates.  Today, employers can’t deal with the avalanche of resumes they would get if they posted the jobs.  So they are relying on a brand new digital armory to find the handful of “most qualified” recruits that they want to interview.

Employers have gone digital!

This move makes things easier for job hunters!  Any candidate with the right digital skills has more power and more opportunity to find and land a job than they have ever had before.
In David’s new book, co-author with Jay Levinson, called “Guerrilla Marketing for Job-Hunters 3.0”, he lays out the brand new tools and tactics to make you light up on the digital radar!
Sub-titled: “How to Stand Out from the Crowd and Tap into the Hidden Job Market Using Social Media and 999 other Tactics Today”, the new book goes beyond  ‘where to look’ for a job, to include ‘how to be found in the digital job marketplace’.  It took a guerilla marketer to spot this trend, and few job candidates are aware of it yet.  If you can grasp these simple digital techniques now, you will have a jump on all those who are still sending out resumes.  While resumes are still a critical element, job hunters also need digital strategies.
The new book tells how to use different social media at the same time, so job hunters can leverage online resources like ZoomInfo, LinkedIn, and Facebook, and take advantage of “the secret lives of top corporate recruiters”.  Job-hunters are advised on little-known search-engine optimization tricks used by those looking for employees.

At the same time, job hunters are coached on how to use the new tools to build online profiles that present their value to searchers.  Case stories are used to illustrate how to interview, and how to demonstrate this ability during the interview.

Drive to Own The “Means of Employment”

Guerilla Marketing for Job Hunters 3.0 is riding a great historical trend: the compelling need everyone feels for control of their fate.  People are taking control of their lives, and this means ownership of the means of employment.  We are in a renaissance of self-direction.  We all want to direct our own lives in an uncertain world, so we can expand our opportunities and our abilities.  Partly this comes from the current economic uncertainty; partly it reflects the history of the past century and more, which has been a striving towards the realization that people’s opinions matter!  We have always moved in the direction of greater freedom…because that is human nature.  We want to control our destinies.

“Taking control of your employment is especially important in today’s demographic because so many people are looking for new kinds of work  –  work that has meaning for them.  Our population is getting older  –  for the first time, there will be more people over 65 than under 5  — and older people are more reflective: they want to know they are doing something meaningful.  Our book helps provide a catalyst for their productivity.
In a digital age, you master the digital stage.
As the first multi-media book for job hunters, Guerilla Marketing for Job Hunters 3.0 has:
  • “Quick Response” Tag technology from Microsoft to deliver exclusive content
  • Digital tools to perform precession job searches and online placements of candidate values
  • Hot links for fast access to online tools
  • Tweets and other social media tools
About the “Guerilla” Series of Books

The “Guerilla” series has sold more than 22-million books in the past decade, providing effective advice to business owners and job seekers.  The series was launched with Guerilla Marketing, a technique maximizing innovation and creativity

Paola Michelle Longoria López (born July 20, 1989) is a Mexican racquetball player. She's the two time reigning International Racquetball Federation World Champion in both Women's Singles and Doubles, the first player to hold both titles simultaneously.

Longoria is also the #1 player on the Ladies Professional Racquetball Tour (LPRT) tour, and was the first Mexican woman to attain the #1 pro ranking, doing so at the end of the 2008-09 season. She repeated the feat at the end of 2009-2010 season, and has been #1 for the last three seasons. Longoria's style is characterized by a semi-western grip of the racquet, which is unusual for racquetball; Longoria is the only pro player using this grip style.

Journey to becoming a reporter


  It has been an interesting journey from writing articles, leveraging them to speak and share with various groups to writing spotlight features and interview amazing professionals and entrepreneur in my network.

 My fellow blog brother Patrick Bizindavyi who writes The Journeyman Stories Link to his blog (must read blog) has shared numerous stories over the years about opportunities and people his has met in his journey.

 Last week I had an evening that was very memorable and funny that I wanted to share with everyone. Let's reverse history for a few paragraphs.

I  have shared many times in articles and conversations that you everyday you shake hands and meet people how become connected with you with online and offline.

  Last year I met the Andre Sooneste Founder of Andium link. We met a couple of networking events and had many similar interests from, Online Marketing, networking  and strategic alliances expertise.

  Couple of months ago Andre Sooneste had asked if I was interested in assisting with an for start up companies that was based in United States, They were planning there first event in Toronto and he was looking for few people to assist with the evening. I agreed (lets remember this later)

 The event was happening on Wednesday June 4 at the Cube Rooftop on Queen and Peter in the heart of the entertainment district in Toronto. Late on Friday I got an email regarding a meeting that was being held on Tuesday evening at 6pm at a local library, I email him back and advised him that I would be able to make the meeting. So he decided to have a Skype call on Monday at 3pm. I agreed (remember this)

 We had that shortest skype meeting ever, 5 minutes!

 The day had arrived and I decided to take a walk and enjoy the beautiful weather were having in Toronto that day. (we deserved it after the winter we had!) As I walked south it was great to see all the amazing landmarks in our great city from CN Tower, Citytv building and numbers amazing restaurants.

 I go there little earlier than I though and went on little extended walk and saw the amazing preparations that were happening for the upcoming MMVA 2014 Video Awards happening on June 14th Learn more

  As I returned back to the venue I was greeted by security and was escorted up to the rooftop patio. It was amazing space. The exhibitors were beginning to set up and support staff were getting everything ready.

  Andre Sooneste  had just arrive with clipbard in hand and ready to go.

   We great each other and then he says " change of plans, your are not doing registration you will interview  people"

  I was speechless (doesn't happen offten) " I said, well okay. what questions am I going to ask them?"

  Andres Sooneste responds " You interview people all the time,  you figure it out!"

  He was right I have in the past, but I had been prepared!

  Few minutes later I get introduced to Alex the videographer of the evening and we had our first meeting.

  I said " Nice to meet you,look forward to great evening"  next thing he hands me a microphone and  says "lets get started"

   After getting over that initiation I was bit nervous and more excited to get started.

     Wendy Ladd had this quote "Opportunity is everywhere" and I was said it to people and next thing you know I am experiencing the opportunity.

    We got started interviewing the startups where exhibiting for the evening. We did the first interview which was good but not amazing, the interviewee was excited and shared great insights on his power saving business.

    We continued and interviewing the second company. After we were done Alex says "doing great so far,one thing the conversation you had at the end of the interview was awesome. I will keep recording'

  I said  "great your the video guy and I am the talker"  He was amused!

  The night continued and we finished interviewing at the startup companies, the organizers and even got some testimonials!

  As it began to get dark Alex shared that he another surprise to share he said  "I have a drone"

  He left and a few minutes later a drone was hovering overhead, it was papparazi's delight. Everyone got there phones out and began to take pictures!

     Look forward to sharing the amazing interviews in the coming weeks.

 Moral of the Story: You may agree to do something and be excited about it. The surprise is occurs when you finally attend and get the true gift of opportunity to share your expertise.

Journey to 1000 blogs!




              It has been an amazing journey sharing insights and experiences with the world. It all started 5 years ago, I was speaking to an engineering company about networking and sales, during the end of the presentation I had mentioned the power of blogging (at the time I was researching)

  The engineers were very interested in leverage the blog with on the email signatures, adding value on  expertise in their industry to clients and network.

   Few weeks later I started my first blog and it was to begin a journey that would give me the opportunity to share insights  on experiences that I was having in Business.Life and Success.

    The first blog I shared caused an interested internet ripple. It caused a referral! I had also shared contest on 2 others sites.  That's a great way to start for sure.

    Since then the blog has evolved in some many ways. I have shared events, interviews, videos, articles and guest posts.  In July 2012 started doing book reviews and that has turned it an great journey (more on that later)

     Five years have gone by very quickly, I am glad I made the decision to start the blog and share, leverage my expertise to the world!

    The writing has evolved where I expanded the articles into  e-books on topics from Networking, Mentorship, Blogging, Engagement Marketing. Through that I have shared these topics to various groups all over  GTA and United States.

    In 2011 I attended an event on How to Publish a book held by Gerry Robert.I was part of mastermind group for entire year in Toronto. I had met Jean Guy Franceour who had connected our group with this awesome event.

  It was that weekend that I had come to conclusion that I could talk everything and turn it into a book!  It was exciting  weekend to make this decision amongst great friends. Fast forward to September 2013 and I get a call from Author and Speaker Dianne Ojar-Ali about the status of my book.

   I had inspired Dianne Ojar Ali to write her book Mrs. Fraud and You and it she wanted to see when my book would get done. She had me cornered  and I couldn't get her to change the subject!

     Due to her pressure and professional threats! (Wash her mini-van or else)That was enough. In less than 72 hours I had cover done and ISBN application complete!  It was great experience to work with amazing graphic artist  Michael Trapani from Icube8 Create to put the together the front and back covers. view covers

    When I first started blogging I never thought it would turn into a book!

  As you have read making this decision has open many doors and I have shared my story with friends in my network and they have to have started blogs. Rania Effat started Living out my purpose in December 2011. Learn more and others have started a blog to share their views and insights on life.

      Huge thank to amazing connections online who have been part of this awesome journey.

   
   Moral of the story:  Make a decision to start a blog today, it will take you on a journey to
      create experiences and lessons that an impact your life and others!
