Are You Having Trouble Getting to the Interview Table?

In today’s economy, resumes and covers letters simply don’t generate interviews for the determined job seeker. Why?

Because once a job is posted, you are competing against 100’s of applicants.

Because applicant screeners are looking for a perfect match between the qualifications and experience on your resume and what is specified in the job description.

Because HR Directors and computer software programs eliminate your paper or electronic resume before it can ever reach the decision-maker who can hire you.

Dear Friend,

By Using the Simple, Proven Steps in the Life-Work Discovery Process You Will Be Able to Put Yourself Face-to-Face With a Decision-Maker Who Will Hire You!

Most job seekers spend hours and hours developing different resumes and cover letters tailored to what they think the employer wants. The fact is, you can never be sure what the employer wants by analyzing a job description — that’s if one is even provided. You may not even know the name of the employer if you are responding to a blind ad in a newspaper or online.

The problem these job seekers face, in all likelihood, is they will never reach the one person who will make the hiring decision.

What if I could show you how to reach that decision-maker? What would that be worth to you?

Did You Know that 80 % of all jobs are never posted?

It’s true. Numerous surveys conducted at various points over the past two decades confirm that most hires are drawn from internal candidates or are made on the basis of the relationship the decision-maker has with friends or associates of the person hired.

Don’t make the mistake Fred did!

I want to share a sad story about a man I know personally. He is not alone and his name is not Fred, to preserve his privacy. Many job seekers continue to sit in the comfort of their homes and search for posted job openings and then respond with snail-mail or electronic applications, resumes, and cover letters. I tried to reach Fred, telling him I knew of a better, proven way to reach employers. He sat down over several coffees but he refused to listen. He was using the same strategy 18 months later. Only by this time, his house was in foreclosure, his wife and children had left him, and he was living in a cheap, dingy apartment trying to scrap together enough money to pay for rent and food.

Stop spending all your time responding to posted openings and start learning how to penetrate the “hidden job market.”

Are you satisfied with the results you’re getting with your resumes and cover letters? I doubt it or you wouldn’t be visiting my site. What would you say if I could show and teach you how to:

Identify job opportunities before they are posted

Determine whether a particular company or nonprofit organization is “right” for you

Dramatically shorten the time span it takes you to find the right job?

All right, sit down and take a few deep breaths ‘cause I’m going to share two CORE SECRETS to identifying and finding work you love. ARE YOU READY?

How would you like to reach and meet employers before jobs are even posted?

Secret #1: You need to identify the needs, problems, and issues that potential employers are grappling with and which of these you can help them solve. Employers, if only out of enlightened self-interest, want and need people who can help them cut costs, roll out new products and services, increase sales, etc. They need problem solvers!

I will show you how to become an Investigative Reporter and meet with these employers in low-stress informational interviews to identify their needs and determine whether you can help them.

Secret #2: You don’t need to “hunt” for jobs. You need to “farm” relationships with those individuals who can identify and introduce you to decision-makers who can and will hire you once you have demonstrated you can address their needs.

How Would You Like to Have Your Own Personal Job Prospecting Team?

Think for a moment of yourself as the owner of a company that sells copiers. You know (and market research confirms it) that you have an excellent product. What do you need to succeed to grow your business? You need sales and more sales. So you hire and train the best sales force in the area and send them out to market your product. Doesn’t that sound like a solid strategy?

The same strategy can work for you just as it has worked for my clients. You need to create a group of articulate individuals that will prospect and market You, Inc. and get you before the key members of your target market — employers!

But wait, there is a third secret you must master before you can apply Secrets 1 & 2 — You must define specifically what type of job you want and what type of company you want to work for.

In this class I will teach you how to:

Create your own ideal job description
Define your own preferred job environment
Create your own support, resource, and network referral team
Cultivate and educate your network partners on how to identify and refer you to target employers
Master the art and science of informational interviewing
Identify employer needs and job opportunities before jobs are even posted
Create winning proposals that produce job offers

Believe me, I’ve been in your shoes before.

When I was a fundraiser for a major educational agency, I knew a changing political landscape would mean I was going to lose my job, even though my track record included raising millions of dollars for non profit organizations in three states. I struck a deal with the executive director to give me one more year and time to find another job. For almost 11 months I played the resume and cover letter game. I applied for every posted fundraising job in the city.

The results? Not one job offer! Not even one job interview!

Just when I was at the end of my rope, I phoned Bob, a former colleague now working with a large health system. He was leaving his fundraising job where he was second in command at a hospital foundation and going back to practice law! His boss had interviewed a number of candidates without success. He knew I was the right person for the opening and gave me a splendid referral. My job interview was a breeze. His boss was convinced. The job was mine!

That’s when I learned about the power of Word Of Mouth (WOM) Referral Networking. I didn’t realize it was a system at the time; all I knew was it got me my job.

In this Class I Will Teach You How to Combine the Power of Informational Interviewing with the Power of Word of Mouth Referral Networking to Find Rewarding Work Even in a Recessionary Economy!

Example: Tom and I belonged to the same business networking group. He was stagnating with a sales training company and approached me for help. The current recession was just about to implode. Working with me, Tom cultivated his network, identified a target entrepreneur, conducted several informational interviews, identified several key areas where he could address pressing problems, and wrote a winning proposal that resulted in an offer to become the company CFO with a big ticket salary. He is a wonderful referral source for me.

Here is another endorsement for my approach to finding fulfilling, rewarding work. I helped this woman with the training and support she needed to secure the right job for her talents.

Testimonial: “Between jobs, Neal reflected my own strength back to me, during a time of doubt. Neal opened my mind to new career possibilities. Neal taught me the many ways to network…Neal gave me the support, encouragement, and tools I needed to move my career to the next level. I am a fan of Neal’s and I know you will be, too! – K.G.

The Final Key to Your Career Success: You must place yourself face-to-face with an employer and answer the BIG QUESTION:

What’s in it for him or her if they help you?

As I said before, employers want employees who can solve their problems and make their lives easier. Your mission is to convince them you can do that before a job is even posted and you’re competing with 100’s of applicants. Your want to eliminate your competition by convincing the decision-maker you can solve his or her problems. How do you do this?

WRITE WINNING PROPOSALS TO SELL YOURSELF TO YOUR TARGET EMPLOYERS!

Now before you get all uptight and anxious, be aware that the proposal you will write is just a simple 3-5 page paper describing how you will use your brains, talents, and skill sets to solve the potential employer’s problems. You’re not writing War & Peace, for heaven’s sake.

Let me provide you with some reassurance that you can indeed succeed with this assignment. Before I decided to help people identify and find work they love, I wrote literally thousands of successful proposals over a long and fulfilling career in fund raising, as a staffer, manager, and independent consultant. The time you spend prior to writing the proposal is the key. First, your informational interviews will provide you with the information you need by pinpointing the corporations and nonprofit organizations and identifying the needs you can solve. Second, I can show you how to write a proposal in letter form that simply and concisely details how you can solve the need or problem facing the employer. The letter is “proof” that you would be the perfect addition to the organization.

I Feel the Suffering Folks Carry with Them When They’re Laid Off or Worried They May Lose Their Jobs! So I’m Going to Make You an Offer You Can’t Refuse!

Executive search firms have the gall to charge clients $5,000, $10,000, or even $35,000 for a cookie cutter process that places a premium on separating a client from his money without giving him fair value. I could not live with myself if I did that.

I typically charge my personal clients $1200 – $1500 for the material presented in this e-Seminar. That’s far less than other consultants or coaches and I’m worth every penny. But I’m not going to charge you that.

Your Cost Is Only $495!

But that’s not all.

As a bonus, I will also include my special report WHAT’S HOLDING YOU BACK? in which will I show you how to turn your fears and resistance into pathways to success! Many people would pay at least $100 for this report. It’s my free gift to you because I want you to succeed in finding work you love.

But that’s not all.

I’m also including the special report The Geek Ambassador’s Guide to Finding Work You Love, a truly powerful tutorial on penetrating the Hidden Job Market through the phenomenon of social media networking. Social networking, used correctly, is a powerful tool in your job-search toolbox. You can use these tools to improve your chances of finding work you love in this Great Recession! I think you’ll agree — once you read and implement the Social Networking tools Jennifer describes in this Special Report — that without these tools in your arsenal, your traditional approach to a job search is limited.

And I’m Not Done Yet!

My final bonus is Marketing You – Marketing for the Job Seeker by Stephen L. Eckert, noted author of Marketing in a Downturn. In his book he offered specific strategies and tactics for companies to grow their businesses…even in the worst economy in decades. Now he’s turned his expertise toward the job seeker. You can gain the same insight as top executives and business owners and apply it to market the greatest product…YOU! Separately and together these reports represent tremendous value. And they are yours absolutely free when you enroll in my e-Seminar.

However there are limiting conditions:

I CAN ONLY TAKE 50 CLIENTS FOR THIS e-SEMINAR.
I expect the class to fill up in a matter of days.
When 50 clients enroll I will CLOSE the class. It will not be offered again for at least six months.

Act now!

Announcing Neal Griebling’s 4-Week e-Seminar

“Find That Job Fast “

Here’s What You Can Expect

Brief, Easy-To-Understand Training Materials. Each week I’ll send you out a download link (via email) for that week’s PDF training materials (more on these in just a moment). These weekly training materials will be CONCISE, but thorough…ranging from 15-30 pages. I’m trying to REMOVE “information overload,” not add to it. Each lesson covers exactly what you need to do to dramatically shorten the timeline it takes you to find your next job.
Real Action-Oriented Assignments To Complete. At the conclusion of each lesson will be a homework assignment to complete before the next lesson arrives the following week. You will be REQUIRED to complete and turn in the assignment to me. If the assignment needs “grading” by me, then I will personally email you back with suggestions. It doesn’t do you any good to have “information” if you don’t know how to apply it to your specific situation. You WILL see personal results from the e-Seminar.
Personalized Q&A With Me Anytime You Want During The 4 Weeks.
You will have the opportunity to interact with me on a limited basis. While I can’t possibly be in constant consultation with all 50 participants, I will answer any question you have regarding a lesson and its application to your specific business. (Please no more than one question per day – no weekends.) I don’t anticipate there being many questions due to the presentation of the content (it will be incredibly easy to apply), but I certainly will be available on a DAILY basis to answer any questions about the e-Seminar materials. You will have access to a private online message center where you and I will communicate. (More on this in a moment)

This is going to be a life-changing opportunity for the 50 people who get the limited spots in the e-Seminar.
