Slightly shameless self promo - Wine Down Friday #9

There comes a time where an email has something in it with a price tag...now is that time

Happy Friday! I have made it back to regularly scheduled updates without getting struck down by Crowdstrike (yay for being a Mac person haha!)

Deviating a bit as I do have something in the works that I wanted to share with everyone so again sorry/not that sorry for some self promo 😇 

BUT FIRST…A REASON TO DRINK!

Just another reminder how much job hunting SUCKS BUTT.

I think I lost brain cells when I first found this…

Lesson I’m teaching this week and the next few weeks: how to network even if you’re socially awkward, you don’t know what you’re doing, but you’d very much prefer to not be broke

No one likes networking. And if someone says they do, they are lying to themselves as they’re only doing it FOR themselves.

To network properly/connecting with others without being awkward or dying on the inside requires you to ACTUALLY care enough about the other person that you’d WANT to be even somewhat connected to them.

It’s not worth you staying in touch with a bunch of strangers where you can’t help them and they can’t help you. You must focus on finding quality people that you want to stay in touch with and can actually be an advocate for you.

Those types of relationships won’t just magically appear when spamming connection requests either. You have to actually check in and follow up with people to build trust and credibility. You can’t try helping everyone because you help no one, especially yourself.

don’t be like this guy and carpet blast a ton of connection requests.

If you need extra help on how you can go about doing all of this, that’s where my bootcamp comes in!

Join me in my bootcamp!😃

I will actually help you throughout the entire process with establishing yourself as a trustworthy and credible expert in your field, help you find the right people you want to connect with, and craft messages to get those conversations flowing. I will also be your networking buddy where you can practice small talk with me and make it less painful/awkward 🙂
