How Many Internet Users Google Themselves??

Article Link

To commemorate Google’s 15th birthday, Pew Internet released Friday results of a survey conducted in April and May showing that 56 percent of Internet users have used search engines to “look up their own name to see what information is available about them online.”

That’s up from 22 percent in 2001 when Pew first asked that question, but slightly down from the 57 percent of users who said they had searched for themselves in 2009. Don’t like what you see when you Google yourself? The search giant offers tips on how to manage your online reputation.

Google offers a “Me on the Web” feature that allows you to receive a notification whenever information about you, such as an email address or phone number, is published online. Read more…

BlackBerry to Fire 4,500 employees as Sales of New Device Plummet

BlackBerry confirmed it was firing 4,500 of its staff on Friday as the struggling smartphone firm said it expects to lose nearly $1bn in the three months to August on disappointing sales of new phones.

Revenues for the three months were only $1.6bn, the company said, against analysts' forecasts of $3bn – indicative of a collapse in its business after lacklustre sales of its new Z10 and Q10 phones. In all, it shipped 3.7m smartphones in the quarter, its lowest since summer 2007, when the first iPhone came out.

The company's shares crashed from $10.20 to $8.03 before recovering to $8.73, a 17% drop on the day, valuing it at $4.5bn. The shares were briefly suspended as rumours of the loss circulated, and it was forced to indicate its quarterly earnings a week ahead of their scheduled date. It said it would announce a loss of between $930m and $955m next week.

Do You Have a Killer Communication Strategy?

By Paul McCord
Link

So many prospects and clients to kill, so little time. But don’t worry; salespeople all over the world are doing their damnedest to kill as many prospects and clients as possible every day. Their weapon of choice? Communication—or more specifically, communication fraud. I suspect you are like me, getting dozens of emails, phone calls, snail mail letters, and even face-to-face meetings with sellers who seem to have only one goal—waste as much of my time as possible.

They email and call wanting to know if I’m doing OK, or if I need anything, or if they can show me a new product or service without having the slightest idea if I need it or could actually use it. Some call to simply let me know they’re still around and want my business. Many of these intrepid sellers have bombarded me with so much time wasting junk communication that they’ve taught me to completely ignore them. When I see an email or letter from them or if I get a voice mail message from them I know that I need pay absolutely no attention to them.

 Their time wasting communications have completely killed me off as a prospect—and, worse, I’ve even had some sellers kill me off as a client because of their insistence on trying to waste my time.

Expert Writing for Client Value Propositions in Sales

You Are Already An Expert At Writing a Value Proposition
by S. Anthony Iannarino Link

You are already an expert at writing value propositions. Over the course of your lifetime you’ve written thousands of value propositions. Well, to be honest, you didn’t actually write these value propositions. But rest assured, you did create value proposition. Let’s look at example. Remember when you upgraded your computer and bought that new MacBook Air? Did you really need the MacBook Air?

We could have an interesting debate over whether you wanted it or needed it, but there is no debating that you came up with a compelling value proposition. What did you tell yourself when you bought that computer? Maybe you told yourself that your old computer was too slow and that your work requires a faster computer. You might have told yourself that your new Macbook Air would boot in seconds, preventing you from having to wait to start working and saving you time.

Perhaps you told yourself that the new computer would be light enough that you could carry it everywhere with you, allowing you to work from anywhere and making you even more efficient. If you were really convincing when you sold yourself, you explained to yourself how much money your time was worth and how much more you would make with a faster, lighter, sexier computer

Dish Network launches $25.5 billion unsolicited bid to acquire Sprint!

Dish Network launches $25.5 billion unsolicited bid to acquire Sprint
By Andy Vuong The Denver Post

Related Dish Network on Monday launched an unsolicited $25.5 billion cash and stock bid for Sprint Nextel to create a combined company that would be able to offer nationwide pay-TV and cellphone service.

The proposal competes against a pending merger between Sprint and Tokyo-based Softbank, which in October offered $20 billion for a 70 percent stake in the No. 3 U.S. wireless carrier. Dish, the nation's third largest pay-TV provider, said its bid "represents superior value to Sprint shareholders." The proposal consists of $17.3 billion cash and $8.2 billion in stock, versus Softbank's offer of $12 billion in cash and $8 billion in investment capital.

Using Social Media For Your Job Search: A Definitive Guide

Using Social Media For Your Job Search: A Definitive Guide
Article Link

Social media isn't just for connecting with that high school friend you haven't seen in years, and sharing juicy updates on what's been going on in your life - you can actually leverage this online tool to help you get a job.

The explosion of social media in the last few years has meant that many companies and recruitment managers have taken to platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to source for fresh talent and improve their company profile and presence. In this post, we'll be giving you actionable information on how you can use social media to advance your career prospects.

1. Build a Great Online Presence Before a company decides to send you that 'Congratulations, You've Been Hired!' email, they'll do the obligatory search for your name online to determine what kind of presence you have. You want to aim for a professional one that highlights your professional achievements, passions and connections. A cursory search on Google by a company recruiter should come up with things like your resume, your LinkedIn profile or Twitter page. It might also be a good idea to come up with a blog that details your passions in relation to what you're good at. For example, if you are an aspiring graphic designer, you can come up with a pictorial blog on some of the designs you have done, interspersed with text posts.

2. Tweet About Your Job Search Twitter's fluid nature means that things on this platform are dynamic and fast-moving. If you're subscribed to the right people, it's pretty easy to get the attention of industry specialists. Tweeting about your job search and enthusing about your dream job, while at the same time asking others to retweet your job search, can be a powerful way of bringing you exactly what you want. Twitter has a character limit of about 140 characters, so keep your tweets fresh, concise and eye-catching to get the reaction you need.

3. Research, Research, Research Social media provides you with organic sources of content that will help you stay up-to-date on new developments in the job industry of your choice. People are always sharing links to blog posts, articles and Facebook pages. Make sure to check out any links that seem interesting and that may turn out legitimate job leads. Sites such as www.glassdoor.com are perfect for checking out company reviews put up by current and former employees of companies that you may be interested in working with.

4. Stay Active on LinkedIn LinkedIn is the Facebook for professionals. It is a great place to connect and network with like-minded individuals, and may be a good first place to look during your job search given its large database of professionals. The main thing to keep in mind while using LinkedIn is making sure that your profile is 100 percent complete. This allows LinkedIn to rank your profile higher in its search results, making you more visible to recruiters and human resource staff.

5. Engage With An Employer When you're following a prospective employer on Twitter or Facebook, the key is to keep it subtle. You want to look like you're interested in the company and have the knowledge about what makes them tick before pitching your application. This should ideally come after a few weeks of engaging the employer. This is because if you approach most people on social media with job requests, they most likely will clam up and you'll lose your chance at being employed with that company. At the end of the day, it's all about timing, being respectful and demonstrating passion for your chosen field that will get you noticed.

6. Join Social Media Groups and Forums These are available on platforms such as LinkedIn and Facebook, and give you a chance to demonstrate your expertise on a particular subject area. At the same time, you should demonstrate ideal qualities that are in high demand by most companies today; you can assume a leadership role by starting discussions, or be a mediator in discussions by encouraging debate and enhancing an open space where everyone can express themselves freely. Just don't overdo it, as you'll run the risk of appearing overbearing and loud.

7. Be Creative - Video Resume, Anyone? There are hundreds of thousands of applicants, all clamoring for that prized job. How are you going to capture the attention of a recruiter online? A unique way of doing this would be to present your skills in video form, where you talk into a camera, highlighting your experience, achievements and reasons why an employer should choose you. Invest in good grooming, and ask a friend to shoot the video.

You can post this video on Facebook and tag your friends and family. If done well, this strategy might see your video resume going viral in a few days, bringing you more employment opportunities that you can ever imagine.

So, there you have it: seven ways in which you can use social media to get your name out in the job sector. Please make sure not to over share information or spam any of your networks while carrying out these strategies. Happy job hunting!

Yahoo Teams With Facebook For Site Revamp!

(Reuters) - Yahoo Inc is overhauling its website to incorporate features familiar to Facebook users such as a newsfeed and people's "likes," in CEO Marissa Mayer's biggest product revamp since taking the helm of the ailing company last year.

Mayer, who took over in July after a procession of CEOs was shown the door, said in a blog post on Wednesday that Yahoo's redesigned website will let users log in with their Facebook IDs to gain access to content and information shared by friends - from articles and videos to birthdays.

Yahoo is one of the world's most-visited online properties, but revenue has declined in recent years amid competition from Google Inc and Facebook Inc. The changes to Yahoo's Internet shop window, which include a more streamlined mobile application for smartphones and tablets, will be rolled out over coming days. The makeover follows a new version of Yahoo mail, one of its most popular applications, introduced in December.

7 Sales Tips To Get Ahead Of Your Competitors In 2013

Business Computerworld
Article

1. Ringfence All Your Existing Accounts If you want to get ahead, and stay ahead, of your competitors in 2013, the very first thing you need to do is ringfence all your existing customers.

What are your relationships like with your existing accounts? The ones you don’t get on as well with? Would they tell you if a competitor had been in? And if they did, would you retain the business at the same price, or would you have to price match to keep it?

2. Focus Your Prospecting The quality of your prospecting will be one of the biggest factors in how successful you are in 2013. As the individual salesperson is asked to do more and more, it’s vital that the time you spend prospecting is time well spent. There will be certain specific criteria that make certain prospects more ideal for you than others. If you don’t know what they are, you need to find them out – and fast! If you’re really not sure, take a look at your existing client base. What was it that made them purchase at the moment they did?

3. Become A ‘Valued Resource’ In order to be seen as a valued resource, you have to earn it. You have to give value first. You have to get updated on industry trends, technological advancements and understand the impact that these could have on your client’s business. You have to be able to hold a business conversation with the level of decision makers you’re meeting. Invest the time to do things like this, and it will pay you back tenfold!

4. Have A Plan For Your Attack One of the best ways to get ahead of the competition in 2013 is to get some of their customers off them! Why not map out competitors accounts in your territory, then create a call plan for getting into see them, and focus on winning their business. If you’re in internal sales, make notes on the prospects that are currently using your competition, then filter the data by competitors name. Then you can create a phone campaign designed specifically to convert their customers to your customers instead! Experience shows that dedicated and focused approaches like those above have a far better chance of success – and also put a big dent in your competitor’s motivation at the same time.

5. Increase Your Activity Now, once you’ve targeted your prospecting, the next thing you need to do is crank up the volume. I’m a big fan of a high level of activity and the reason for this, is that the more deals you have in your pipeline, the more you can afford to lose! Purely by increasing your activity, you increase your chances of success – and therefore increase the amount of money you can earn. Who wouldn’t want to do that?

6. Develop Consistent Motivation We all know that motivation is important for a salesperson. But it’s the salesperson’s ability to be consistently motivated that will help them stand out from the rest, and stay ahead of their competition in 2013.

7. Sharpen Your Sales Skills If you truly want to stay ahead of your competition in 2013, you’ll need to sharpen your sales skills. This means getting up-to-date, relevant sales tips and advice from trusted sources. If you get some internal training at your company, great! If your company invests in bringing an external trainer or motivator to help you improve, even better! If you’re one of those people that believes in investing in yourself (even if your company doesn’t). I take my hat off to you.

However, you don’t have to spend money to keep your sales skills updated – there are various audios around that are free or low-cost, and there are plenty of seminars you can attend without spending a fortune – just make sure you put into practice what you learn, and I look forward to hearing how you’re staying ahead of your competition in 2013! Follow the tips above and watch your sales soar!
