Who knows your name?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Being known in the marketplace is critical to job search success.\u00a0 Your name, what you do and your reputation are intimately intertwined.<\/p>\n

What are people saying about you?<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 If the answer is Zilch, Zip, Nil<\/em>,\u00a0 don’t you think you should change that?<\/p>\n

If no one knows you or can’t say anything about you, your odds of being hired may go down to zero!<\/p>\n

Jeffery Gitomer<\/a>, author and president of Charlotte-based Buy Gitomer,<\/em><\/a> says that when someone asks about you or says your name the response will be one of five things:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Something great<\/li>\n
  2. Something good<\/li>\n
  3. Nothing<\/li>\n
  4. Something bad<\/li>\n
  5. Something really<\/em> bad<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Gitomer believes these responses determine your fate.<\/p>\n

    I agree — what people say about you impacts your providence.\u00a0 More often than not it is because people say nothing<\/strong> about you or share too little.<\/p>\n

    Building your name recognition and a great reputation takes dedication, execution and time.\u00a0 Are you putting time and effort into being known by those who need to know you?<\/p>\n

    When someone asks about you, my theory is that most people say nothing for one of two reasons.\u00a0 One, they don\u2019t know anything about you – Zilch, Zip, Nil – <\/em>therefore have nothing to say.\u00a0 Or two, they are unsure what to say and therefore say Zilch, Zip, Nil<\/em>.<\/p>\n

    What if you converted either of those groups into people who said something good? \u00a0WOW!\u00a0 You would double the number of brand ambassadors you have in the world.<\/p>\n

    Why not start today?<\/p>\n

    Here are three easy steps for getting known:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Define your personal brand.<\/li>\n
    2. Consistently communicate a clear message.<\/li>\n
    3. Connect with the people who need to know you — on and off-line.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
