The New Format for Portable People

I am rolling out a new format for Marketing Me which more accurately reflects my philosophy.

All of us are portable people.

The Marketing Me Manifesto determines that we work in a world where loyalty, conformity and mediocrity are no longer valued.

As such, it is up to all of us to market ourselves to potential employers, to have the right tools for the job and develop as many opportunities as possible.

The typical Marketing Me Maven works for one employer... provides contracted services to at least one other... and promotes multiple projects (primarily using the Internet) which generate additional leads, opportunities and revenue.

Like I said in my last post, the world is moving faster than ever. Each of us only has so many hours in the day to stay ahead of the competition and as such, needs every tool at our disposal.

Make the commitment today to reinvent yourself and your work.

Marketing Me's new format will focus on three areas -

1. Remarketing yourself and your work to the world. Positive changes you can make today which will reenergize your work search and life direction. This will never change.

2. Tools for the job. These include Internet sites and services, communications hardware and how-to books, audio and video.

3. Become self funding. Ask any startup, and unless you want to lose control of your dreams, self funding is the only way to go. The internet presents a GIANT opportunity to diversify our personal self funding through contracting, consulting, writing, speaking, and marketing.

I hope you will join me as we work together to discover the best ways for all of us to expand our opportunities and truly become an in demand product in the new world of work.
