«Blat" with their hands. Yet something about samopiare you noticed who often uses the word "pull"? Yes, people who boast of much success
can not . And that someone has got to position, or someone got from a friend request, they blame the ubiquitous "blat". I will not argue - there are cases, and in our country are many, when, according to an ancient Soviet and now Russian, traditions, places are people who totally occupying positions which do not, but are relatives, friends, familiar and "recommended" persons "patron".
But the word "pull" is often used when any fact business contacts. Here are two seemingly professional. About one Lopatin, distributing post and money, he knows, as he excitedly recommend his services acquaintances of another - no. "Blat!" - Screams hurt. And not to notice that for some reason he is always bypassed. And the fact that "with blat, and there are invited, and the project to offer ...
Bluth it? Or simply established business contacts and good reputation? Continuing the previous post about samopiare, I propose to reflect on this issue. Particularly those who thinks that "Without cronyism nowhere."
nowhere? Well, then create yourself this "pull" yourself!
For this we return to the topic of the last post - about
samopiare . Rumor runs ahead us. Sometimes orders come from the most unexpected places, through the tenth friend. But for this, I repeat, it is necessary to make it, this rumor. What you should do?
Do not hide your talents and professional skills. On the contrary - keep your friends and family aware of what you do, what talents have and what services can offer. cite specific examples.
Here, for example,
kursoviki-abstracts (theme of recent articles in this blog). Not only classmates and odnoobschazhniki "know that I write training operation, but the family - which I do not forbid to tell if the case than moonlights as a daughter at meager Russian scholarship. As a result, once asked a neighbor - the officer who decided to learn from the military academy, and needs control. Then - the cousin of a neighbor. Then - another cousin of the same neighbor ... It is ridiculous to say: the editor, which belonged to my part-maloodobritelno, once came over and whispered in my ear ... what is the client - her sister:)
All this happens because when the need is not too well-known professional in the broad range of occupations, then the person with a given area is not connected, typically what to look for - it is easier to apply to him whom he knows personally. Remember this moment, we are at it More later.
Sometimes, customers can bring your own personal blog that demonstrates your style, your ability to write and motivate readers. Some Clients come to me through
personal blog , as I write in it about everything that interests me - including
on . However, someone can not write a personal blog about the work - this is normal, because we all want privacy. So that the privacy of your blog - of course, a personal matter. Not all experience is good for everyone. (I, incidentally, a blog, although I call it "personal", mainly reflecting the public side of life, the private little writing or writing "locked up" - as well as many are just the same private blogs).
So, I repeat, to write about their work copywriter, a journalist in a personal blog or not - everyone chooses himself. But hide that you are a journalist, copywriter, lyricist, I think, not worth it. Suddenly, someone of your friends need to write the text?
For a man, not only for text market, public relations and journalism, it's hard to go to find an adequate performer. Simply turn to a friend who works in this field.
That's what I got many orders: from former classmates, who started his political career in different parties, from former classmates, which met in a cafe - talking about who does what, and then, after a few months, the mobile phone trenknul and unfamiliar faces offered an interesting job for $ 12/kiloznak ... where? Oksana advised!
Bluth? Well, gentlemen, you can call it what you want. But you must admit that without the skills and quality of work (which gives
regular customers and their recommendations ") that" cronyism "simply could not be.
That's just something often overlooked and pitted comrades who believe that they are being clamped and the oppressed, and would have such friends ... so they would ... uhhhh!
But back to the topic of creation of "cronyism" with their hands.
Hold friends are aware of your achievements! (Professional, of course, or okoloprofessionalnyh - sexual records hardly anyone professionally interested in ... Although ... :)).
example, recently completed semi-annual competitive project, which I supported for a single publication. Why invite me? Because I have fairly good experience in literary competitions. I must say that its success (it won by half a dozen writing contests - from magazines, associations, self-made, with cash and book prizes, publications), I always hesitated to advertise in the team. Somehow it seemed not so much frivolous ... but let slip a couple of times. And this is, imagine proved useful. And not even the money thing - but in a very serious organizational learning.
another example. Of Education I am a historian by profession but has worked a little (a few months, a teacher at school). Nevertheless, education is very handy when the journalists sought Candidates for writing non-Fiction. Again, money is small, but the experience ...
I do think that sometimes the experience is much more than money.
example, almost year editing a small newspaper has brought me not only in line with labor, but also invaluable experience in guiding the process of collecting and selecting materials, layout, promotion, establishing contacts with the printing press, "Press", mail ... pay a little, but the experience, the son of errors difficult, was very useful for further work in the media and the blogosphere ... And in the line of work and resume - Editor in Chief "- is also unnecessary does not happen!
And who offered me the job? Schoolteacher, became assistant to one of, say, a high-ranking person. We had to quickly find a replacement for the editor, and preferably among friends and loyal journalists. I know many people in such cases use the word "pull". In one of the discussions at the forum
Advego certain person already choked with hatred, arguing that "In the media can only be reached through connections in".
Bluth! How much contempt, hatred and jealousy can be embedded in a word ... And the person who uses this word more often just does not distinguish - it really "pull", that is a choice among "their own" regardless of ability to engage in the business place, or the result of experience accumulated reputation.
Such a "pull", I assure you can create yourself one.
It is also called "business contacts". But it requires a lot of work, primarily the quality of services - after all that you were invited and encouraged, to out themselves anything to submit.
====================
By the way, found recently in an interesting network community to increase business contacts and professional relationships. You can write me a mail obsydyan@yandex.ru, and I will send you a free invite to the system.
