How to unleash your creativity and generate million dollar ideasAamir Qutub
Creative ideas are all around us, all the time. Uncovering them is often a matter of how we’re looking at things and less of where we’re looking. And yet when we’re feeling uncreative or stuck it’s often helpful to get away from the work: to get up and go for a walk, or do a chore, or otherwise change scenery.

Agency59 Response: DIY Marketing for Small Business (Canadian Marketing Assoc...AGENCY59 RESPONSE
“No money. No time.” Four little words that come up every time we talk to a small business about their marketing strategies. And here are the four words we always counter with: “You’re already doing it.”
You developed a product or service: that was a marketing activity. You tracked down customers: that was a marketing activity. You convinced them to buy your product or service: that was a marketing activity. You’ve been marketing since day one, doing it yourself and doing a good job. But at what point do you decide to do a better job, and how will you go about it?
Agency59 has decades of experience working with both national brands and small businesses. Based on their collective experience, A59’s Marc Cooper (Partner) and Jason Dojc (Director of Strategy) take you through marketing tactics that small businesses can do themselves (there are more than you might think), and outline how ad agencies can further help entrepreneurs grow their businesses when the time is right.
How to Answer the Most Important Question In Your Interviewideatoipo
Recorded on March 20, 2024
,
In a competitive job market, landing an interview is one of the biggest challenges for job seekers. However, once you find yourself in a face-to-face interview with a hiring manager, how do you come across as the best candidate for the position?
Job interviews are all about diffusing risk. After all, a company would never post a role unless it knew it absolutely needed someone who could help them get to the next level. By chatting with prospects, the hiring manager can get an idea of existing talent on the market and what they can provide.
That's why knowing what's at stake is critical to any job you apply for. Outside of being collaborative, being technical, and having your personal stories down, knowing what matters to your bosses, colleagues, and the industry at large are key to being successful.
Learn how you can know what's at stake in your job search and learn to tell a story in your interviews that help you stand out in this webinar from Albert Qian, founder of Albert's List. Over the past 11 years, Albert's List has connected more than 50,000 job seekers, recruiters, and hiring managers to improve career outcomes.
In this video, Albert covers how you answer the most important question in your interviews, including:
Where you can go to research what's at stake for the companies you're interviewing at.
How knowing what's at stake sets you apart from the competition.
How you can use what's at stake as a part of your job interview.
Answers that stand out—and answers that will not get you to the next round.
Ongoing job search trends and where to look for your next opportunity.
Resources that can be used as job seekers conduct their job hunt.
And more!
Albert Qian is a technology product marketer and founder of Albert's List, a job seeker community focused on connecting job seekers, hiring managers, and working professionals to produce positive career outcomes. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, he's worked at various technology companies in marketing capacities and conducted many successful job searches.

5 Steps to Building Engaged Facebook CommunitiesAlbert Qian
Building social communities is hard work. From attracting membership to delivering value, a great community takes time, sweat, and energy -- and that's exactly why we do it. There's nothing more heartwarming than seeing individuals with common interests connect and create meaningful relationships.
Did you know that employers are now using social media to find their next hires? Social media has become the fast and cheap way to conduct a background check. It is also a way for recruiters to seek out emerging talent.

3. What key things to look out for before, during, and after the interview that will make your process smoother.

Before we get into the meat of today’s discussion, I want to set some intentions for today and beyond, especially for those of you who are on the job search. I’ve discovered that my hunt for work is partially practical (what I have done in the past) and partially behavioral (driven by what I think).
Some of you might be here because you haven’t found work in a few weeks. Some of you might be here because you haven’t found work in a while. Regardless of where you have come from, it only matters where you are going. The important attitude to have here is that your ability to find work is going to be an inevitable outcome. You cannot think any other way.
We live in a world where messages like “love what you do and do what you love” are top of mind. The reality is, we live in the Bay Area where it’s expensive to even pay rent. If you need to find a job, put that first. It’s okay to not have your paycheck be your passion.
Many of us feel vulnerable about our job search. Much like asking for help, we hide away from others because we feel shame for not working. The truth is, as long as you are moving forward in your career and doing the necessary work to move ahead, there is no reason not to feel vulnerable. Finding work is tough in the Bay Area, and everyone should be commended for doing so. Showing up is first and foremost.
