Stop Making Other People Rich! Grow Your Own Brand

Build your employer's brand or build your own? the rank nazi cartoonThis is a guest post by Zac Johnson. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. One of the biggest problems I often see in the world of online marketing is that too many people are focusing on building the customer base and brand name of other companies. This can easily be seen in the affiliate marketing space where you are paid a commission every time a new lead or action takes place. While affiliate marketing is a legitimate way to make money online, if you are really good at it you should be using those same efforts and talents to be growing your own brand. In this article I'm going to share with you a few of the reasons why I moved away from just being "another affiliate marketer" to focusing on my own brand and how I've grown ZacJohnson.com into what it is today.

In Your 20s? Focus More on Time Than Moneymaking

Choose the right career while you're young enough to change your mind. This is a guest post by Alina Jingan. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. In the last couple of years I’ve met lots of young people who believed that they first need to have money as the main resource to invest in their development or ideas. At first glance someone will agree that that’s correct, and maybe it is to a certain extent. But the thing that concerns me is that people spend little time to think about the cost of spending all your time on making money. Young people earn money, as everyone else, with their time. There is a constant exchange between time and money, even when you are young, because it impacts on everything. The way we choose and do our job impacts on the way we spend our time, and the way we spend our time is the way we live our lives. Youth is the time to learn through testing and making decisions, mainly without previous experience, but the key element is that all these experiments take time: your time. So, here are some of my thoughts of why you should choose having more time instead of having more money in your 20s.

Generation Hogwash

Should Generation Y have even been a thing? This is a guest post by The Recruiting Animal. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. About seven years ago, when Generation Y began to come of age, there were all sorts of people writing articles about how different they were and how they were going to change the world. But, if they were the good guys, there had to be bad guys and who were those bad guys? Their parents, of course. I say "of course" but, at first, I was shocked. You see, I was raised to think that their parents, the Baby Boomers, were the saviours of the world. Weren't they rejecting their parents' culture? The father who worked too hard and the mother whose life was a social facade?

Personal Branding Renegade: Why I Resist Labels

When you can't be painted with one brush. This is a guest post by Margie Cohen-Jackel. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. I grew up in a family where almost everyone was either educational - teachers of regular and special education, support staff and/or or medical personnel - doctors in different specialties, nurses etc... (My father, now retired, was an electrical engineer - he was in the minority.) So, when the time came for me to determine a direction for myself, I studied Music Therapy (an outgrowth of my violin playing) and educational social work. I began my career as a school social worker in an Ohio school system in regular education; after that I worked in kindergartens for children with special needs. Soon afterwards, I was in a horrific traffic accident in which I was severely injured, and needed to learn to walk again...
