The Unconventional Approach to Gaining a Job Promotion?

Many people want the fast track to a promotion at their jobs. This is a great goal to have and with it one can get greater responsibilities in their organizations. However, many don’t know or lack the understanding of how to get that quick fast career promotion. This is why I want to discuss how consistency through hard work, networking and flexibility are the keys to fast promotion.

Consistency in any job is important because with consistency one will be able to illustrate that they can and have mastered the role that they’re currently in. This is shown through better results over time and through rising scores on yearly performance evaluations. Being on time and providing valuable input at all employee meetings can’t hurt either. Consistently high markings are the quickest way to a promotion in any job.

The next quickest way to promotion is through networking. “It’s not what you know it’s who you know” reins supreme here. Furthermore, knowing as much as you can in your current position will only help to make you stand out from the rest. Networking at company outings and with higher level executives can help because it shows even more the vested interest you have in the company and in your future success. This works both ways in helping you and with potentially helping someone else along the way.

The last is if your able to relocate. Big companies have branches all across the country and business need may vary. Being flexible and moving to sometimes a small town can bode well for your future. Sometimes those small towns are undesirable but they can set you apart because it shows the company that you were willing to do what most were not. That is very important to a lot of companies.

If your able to incorporate all these elements into your daily routine of your job then I can’t see a promotion not coming to you soon, so long as your performing all your duties. Doing so can help you move up the ladder faster increasing your value to company, and with value comes greater pay.

Re: How Not To Start A New Business - Well, these guys these guys will not succeed at all. they need to have a way of doing things. First thing first, which market segment are they targeting? Or are they in the same segment the previous magazine was. They also need to understand the trends, currently people read online magazines so they need a website. After that they need to develop the marketing mix, which will guide them in their marketing activities. This marketing mix will be made of 4 Ps, which are Product, Place,Price and Promotion. I will assume the magazine is the product, the first P, The Price is what is the role the price will play in the market, do they want premium price, or do they want to skim the market. The other P, they need to have, is the Place, this will help in having a strategy on where to place their magazines, this includes the websites, malls, newspaper stands etc. The final P they need to develop is the Promotion, this is the advertising , channels, websites, forums, blogs, name it. Once they have done that, they can sit down and wait for money to come but not without superior customer service, otherwise without all this, they are wasting their time and money.

Re: Top Banner Help - I’ll third that!! Promotion is what the competition needs. The prizes on offer I think are more than enough to increase participation, it just needs to be promoted more on this site and other business related sites, I think I said in the past that I’ve been visiting this site for months and had even made 20 posts before I realized there was a prize up for grabs.
