Does it work?
Page 11
I'm a parishioner at CTK and noticed you are presenting this Thursday. You may remember me, as I presented my Marketing One Pager (attached) last Spring at SING, and you were very helpful. Safeway was on my target list, and just last week I started a part-time contract at the Safeway Culinary Research center in Dublin. I truly believe my One Pager was what opened the door. I sent it to a colleague in the department who forwarded it to the 'powers to be'. It took quite a few months to come together, but the match is perfect as Safeway didn't have someone with my skills. I'm also still able to do other consulting.
I've shared the One Pager with several job seekers and helped them with theirs. Its one of the most useful pieces I've used to market myself. Feel free to use this as an endorsement!

Step 1: Review the template and its categories.
Step 2: Prepare yourself for reflection.
– Where and when did I do my best work?
– Who was around me? What conditions were present?
– When was I bringing ‘my best self’ to the job?
What types of activities was I doing?
– What are my natural talents?
How Do I Prepare My One-Pager?

Step 3: Explore your differentiators.
– Considering what I know myself to be at the core or essence,
what do I want to shine through? How do I want others to know
me?
– How have I distinguished myself from my peers?
– What is my management or leadership style?
– What have I done to further develop myself or the organizations
that I have worked in?

Step 4: Define Attention Grabbers
– What highlights of my career do I want to lead with?
– When someone asks me about an accomplishment that I am most
proud of, I tell them about ____________________ .
– Imagining myself at a barbeque with a group of colleagues and
friends, we reminisce about (insert ‘war story’ here)
________________ with a lot of laughter and camaraderie.
