How Twitter Can Help You In Your Business Or Career

 

Twitter is a very valuable resource especially when it comes to looking for a job, or a contract if you’re a business owner. Here, I will discuss just a few of the strategies you can use on Twitter to help you to source that ideal job or contract.

· Utilise your Twitter Bio. Here you have only 160 characters to promote yourself. If you’re looking for a job opportunity, you need to mention this here. If you’re looking for clients and contracts, you need to talk about your skills and how you can help others achieve their goals via your skills, all within 160 characters. Finally, your bio should point to a website, ideally your Online CV which will provide much more detail about you and your achievements.

· Make use of your Twitter background. There’s a lot of space here that you could utilise. As a minimum, you could add details of your websites and perhaps key skills and responsibilities, if you’re looking to attract a job or client.

· Be sure to post relevant details on Twitter. For example, if you’re an architect, you may want to talk about, buildings that inspire you. This shows your interest in architecture and would certainly gain you brownie points in the eyes of any future employer.

Head-hunters and recruiters use Twitter to hunt out suitable candidates and you need to ensure that the information you post is relevant to any job or contract that you may be attracted to.

If you don’t yet have a website to include in your bio, you need to get this as a matter of urgency. The best website for job seekers, to have in their bio and to tweet about, is an Online CV.

Today, it’s possible to get yourself an Online CV for less than your weekly food shop. You need to do this today, otherwise you may find your job, contract or client going to somebody else.

How Facebook Can Help You in Your Business Or Career

 

With almost a Billion users, Facebook is huge and its power and reach can no longer be underestimated. It’s important to understand that Facebook is not just a utility for social interaction. You can also use it to find a job or to gain clients for your business.

Before I talk about the various strategies you can use, I think it might be worthwhile for you to firstly review your privacy settings to ensure that any private information that you post remains private and cannot be seen by current or potential employers.

To be searchable to the outside world, you may want to allow ‘everyone’ to search for you and view your education and work history. This is the kind of information that future employers would be searching for. You will also want to add your website to your profile and make it viewable to everyone. This is where your Online CV can ‘sell’ your experience in much more detail than facebook. Having an additional website to a basic Facebook profile shows your professionalism and creativity and that you are able to harness the latest technology in a fast changing world.

In your settings, you can also ‘privatise’ your wall posts and photos if these are of a sensitive nature.

Through strategic status updates, you can indicate your availability for work and contracts if you are a business owner.

How Linkedin Can Help You In Your Business Or Professional Career

 

 

LinkedIn is an invaluable tool regardless of whether you’re a Business Owner or professional employee. As a Business Owner, you can highlight your products and services and drive prospects to your websites.

However, LinkedIn does have its limitations. There’s only so much that you can put on your profile page. Here’s where your Online CV comes into its own. Your Online CV can act not just as an extension to your LinkedIn profile, but can fill in any gaps in your profile. Your Online CV can go into as much detail as you like or can provide a brief overview of your skills and responsibilities if you so desire. Your Online CV can show photos and videos also.

As a Business Owner, your LinkedIn profile should link back to your Online CV to provide other business owners a deeper insight into how you run your business and the types of clients you have worked with. This is hugely invaluable because as we all know “people do business with people”, and the more your client knows about you, the more they will trust you and want to do business with you.

As a professional, LinkedIn allows you to explore other businesses and job opportunities that may be of interest to you. Your personal LinkedIn profile should link back to your Online CV which will provide more detail of your career history, skills, responsibilities, achievements and personal interests.

Once you have your Online CV set up, you can start publishing your Online CV URL on all your marketing material including for example your business cards, email signatures and newsletters, websites and brochures. Our research has shown this to result in many more business enquiries and job offers for those seeking employment.
